[My Xbox has FRAG and i dont know why. i think it's the HDD but my PC wont recognize it]

Also one of the silver capacitors is looking really bad. I don't know is it going to fix the issue, but it definitely needs replacing. (Replacing both of them won't be bad idea)

I found this error codes list. My xbox tries to boot 3 times then Frags without Video output. It's a bad PSU?

It's possible. But another possibility is broken capacitors near the cpu.

I was in the same boat looking for belts but didn't have time to wait, I didn't want to LOL. I went to dollar tree and bought the little rubber bands for girls hair. They seemed small but I figured I'd try and it worked LOL, They seem pretty thin so I put three on there and it works great. Probably wont last long but for $1 for 500 I cant complain!!!!

Opening the drive will be a bit slower than with original belt, BUT it will work.

Take a #2 lead pencil and rub it on the conductive pad (now non-conductive after you cleaned it - removed the carbon) to add back conductive material where you removed it.  How well this fix works, ???  But, I've heard others have done so and it fixed their controller.

Also i added a bit of metalic foil on the rubber. That way the A button is easier to press.

You saved my life.

I rubed pencil on the conductive pad where the A and X button are sitting and pasted some thin tape to secure the graphite. After that i closed the controller to test it and it worked! The X started working normally as before and the A (that was dead) started working TOO, but it needs a lot of pressure to work. I'm really thankfull that at least is working. Maybe i will end up buying the chungus duke controller (i like it).

 

Here is how turned out:

[Clock capacitor replacement]

It's not 1.6 or 1.6B whitch cannot boot without it, so it's not worth the time and money.

[Original Xbox shuts off at 1:15(s) what to do next, what to test for?]

Maybe there are some leaking capasitors. The leak that comes out of them is conductive and eats away metal (that eventually could cause short circuit). You should replace them with high quality ones and before that - clean the leakage with isopropyl alcohol.

Hope that's helpful

[Broken ,,A'' buttnon. Pls help]

Hi! I opened my xbox controller s to clean it with 95% alcohol and eventually cleaned the black part (where A,B,X,Y,black,white buttons are) with it. I didn't know it was touch digitizer ;-;

After i assembled and tested it, the A and X buttons weren't working propertly. The X needed a lot of pressure to work and the A didn't worked at all. After 2 days the X button worked, but it still needs little pressure to work, but the A is like stone dead.

Any suggestions? Are there any pins to short so i can simulate button push and eventually to add normal button to work as A.

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Ok thanks.

I don't know how and is there any tool for the xbox, but you could connect the hdd to pc and check the health with hard disk sentinel.

Hope that's helpful.

I haven't heard of reboot button combination. I know comb. that will get you out of an app that you opened - LT, RT, back and black (you have to hold them at the same time, not one by one).

[1.6 CPU Caps Soldering pads destroyed]

This is really bad. I was going to recomment you to follow the traces that were connected to the caps, remove a bit of the green layer that covers them and then soldering wires that are soldered to the caps, but the board is multilayer and it wont be easy to repair.

I'm sorry to say it, but you are doomed. ;-;

[Xbox ver 1.4 power supply issue.]

The voltage seems mostly fine to me. There are some power loses and it's possible to be broken capacitor/s (even if they arent leaking).
