Xbox One: How to disassemble the trigger axis which holds the spring?

Thu, 11 Oct 2018 10:46:29 -0700

The axis appears to be clamped, I put some force on both sides but it won’t give, afraid I might damage the controller.

Xbox: mijn xbox wil niet starten. wat moet ik doen?

Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:08:30 -0700

een jaar geleden heb ik een originele xbox gekocht. hij deed het perfect zonder problemen. maar vandaag (nadat ik hem 2 weken geleden nog gebruikt heb) wou hij niet meer starten. ikzelf heb het idee dat het komt vanwege dat de startkabel gevouwen heeft gelegen. maar zijn er nog andere oorzaken?

alvast met vele dank ,

Xbox: mijn xbox start niet op. wat moet ik doen?

Tue, 24 Jul 2018 10:11:49 -0700

a year ago I bought an original xbox. he did it perfectly without problems. but today (after I used it 2 weeks ago) he did not want to start anymore. I have the idea that it is because the starter cable has been folded. but are there other causes?

can you send the password to my email address?

with many thanks, Thiemo Heijnen

Xbox One: Errors E106 and E101

Fri, 22 May 2026 14:51:28 -0700

I get error E106 whenever I boot and when I try to update or factory reset I get E101. I used the factory update trick by holding eject and bind even after two beeps with a USB drive plugged in to instantly start updating but every time I try to update or factory reset I get error E101. When it says checking update, i checked on the drive and saw that it does move the update files to the disk but it doesn't install them. I have repartitioned the hard drive with ludvig jerabeks Linux tool. I tried every USB option available. Any ideas on what these error codes actually mean? I know E101 has something to do with updating.

Oh and I can't send it to Microsoft because my warranty period has ended and I don't want to pay half the retail price just to let them repair a known issue.

Xbox Series X: Xbox Series X turns on then off after 2 years storage - PSU replaced, no display

Fri, 22 May 2026 01:06:09 -0700

My Xbox Series X turns on for about a minute (or less) and then shuts back off with no display. It has been sitting in storage for over 2 years. I have already replaced the internal power supply with a new one, but the issue persists. I tried booting into low-resolution mode (Power + Eject), but it does not load or show anything on the screen. What could be causing this power-off loop after long-term storage?

Xbox Series X: Xbox Series X freezes, flashes green, then shuts down - Already replaced thermal paste

Tue, 19 May 2026 22:18:57 -0700

My Xbox Series X freezes, flashes a solid green screen, and then completely shuts down the console. This happens sometimes immediately upon launching a game, and other times after a few minutes of play.

I have already performed the following troubleshooting steps:

1. Opened the console and performed a deep cleaning of all vents and the fan.

2. Replaced the thermal paste on the APU and applied new thermal putty to the memory chips and VRMs.

3. Verified the motherboard interconnect cable is securely seated and undamaged.

4. Tested the console plugged directly into a wall outlet.

5. Attempted a factory reset (keeping games and apps).

Despite these steps, the green flash and crash persist. Since the behavior started before I opened the console, I suspect a hardware failure (possibly APU solder joints or a failing internal SSD).

Are there specific board-level components (capacitors, VRMs, etc.) known to cause this "green flash" symptom, or is this confirmed as a terminal APU failure requiring a reball? Any advice from technicians who have seen this specific failure pattern would be greatly appreciated.

Xbox Series S: Does not power on, have shorted capacitors

Mon, 18 May 2026 17:42:49 -0700

During some testing I found sticky residue on one of these chips “marked in red” and all of the capacitors in the “highlighted yellow” area are all shorted. The Xbox does not turn one and would like some input if possible thank you.

Xbox Series X: Forgot to install E-clip in Xbox Series X. Is it safe?

Mon, 18 May 2026 03:14:04 -0700

Hi, I disassembled my Xbox Series X for cleaning, but after fully reassembling it, I realized I left out the E-clip (E-ring). Is it okay to just use the console without it?

Xbox: Help identifying power supply components

Sun, 17 May 2026 23:31:07 -0700

This is a 1,0 model original XBox using a Foxlink FTPS-0001 Rev B power supply.

I've been casually attempting to repair this XBox for a few months now and I think I finally found the culprit. One of the glue blobs on the power supply hiding underneath one of the heatsinks was rather discolored, and after cutting it open I found these two little guys at positions C5 and R6. The board itself was also discolored underneath. I can't find a schematic for the power supply so I'm asking here as a gut check.

C5 - This is the ceramic capacitor to the left, I believe this is the part that has failed as the pad on the bottom of the board showed some corrosion and started to lift. Testing on a multimeter shows no results. Markings lead me to believe the values are 2.2 nF, 1000V, +-20%.

R6 - This is the resistor to the right, whatever happened under the glue discolored it so the bands are not totally clear. Testing it returns 21,640ohm, 3V but that doesn't seem right so I'm assuming this then failed with the capacitor. My research says this should be 39ohm +-5%, but my eyes see red/black/brown/gold which would would put it at 200ohm +-5%. However, if it is red/brown/orange/gold then my testing was actually correct and put it at 21,000ohm +-5%. Really at a loss here.

Am I on the right track here and are any of my values correct? Is there anything else I should probably test on the supply while I'm at it?

I bought a xbox 360 slim from a guy. He showed that it worked, but I bought it withought the power supply. A power supply from a xbox one looks like the same. Will a xbox one power supply work on a xbox slim. They both have the 2 large pins for the plug and look the same, but I thought I would ask before i tried it.
