Here's how to open Xbox 360
Before you open your Xbox 360, you should be aware that doing this will void any warranty on the device. The costs for all future repairs are therefore to be borne by yourself. If you still want to dare to open it, you should proceed as follows:
- First of all you have to use a screwdriver to pry out the side parts of the Xbox 360 Slim. These consist of two parts: First you will hold a ribbed side part in your hands, then you will take out a second plate.
- The second step is to remove the Xbox 360 seal. Afterwards all clips have to be removed from the device by prying them up a little.
- Now lift the housing cover and loosen all screws. You can see the inside of your Xbox 360 Slim.
- If you are unsure at one point during opening, then you better stop and let a specialist take care of it! Otherwise, the joy of playing can be tarnished quickly.
