What is the current status of the 1.6 Xbox you are talking about in this post? Orange lights? Or is it no power?

Is there anything he can actually do about a temperature sensor, like bypass it or spoof it?

Like i said in my first post, its something in between. Sometimes it doesnt even want to give me the error with orange light (no power at all) and sometimes it does the error when pressing the power button. I ruled out a PSU problem because i measured all the voltages its giving and they are correct

Check the voltage level present on the collector of the transistor at location Q7C2.  It should be at a stable 3.3Vdc level.

The collector is the pin on the side by itself.

Ok, that's good. 

No problem with the late reply.

Next Step

Look for any extraenous solder splashes or tiny balls of solder on the surface of the motherboard or between chip pins that may be connecting two or more traces or pins of a chip together that should not be.

Nope, i seriously do not see anything unusual or any solder splashes. At the time it died nobody worked on it so its impossible for it to have solder on the traces or chips. We are hitting a dead end arent we?
