Hiya everyone, very new to this modding business and was hoping for some help, I have soft modded my OG xbox and thought about purchasing a pre chipped modded xbox to have a tinker with, get me "into it" so to speak.

The pictures enclosed are of that chipped xbox. when I got it it worked straight away and was spot on for a few days then the chip didnt seem to be lighting up anymore one day. I opened it and could see that a wire had come loose. I have not a jot on where to solder it so thought id set my 1st topic away if anyone can help.

Looks like the D0 wire fell off. The person who installed it probably used the "alternate" D0 point that's on the underside of the motherboard and it fell off over time. The D0 wire has to be hooked up for the Xbox to know that it has to boot to the modchip, hence why it's no longer lighting up.

The other two wires are for internet and hard drive activity lights.

To fix it, solder that grey wire back up to the D0 point. See attached pictures.
