Third XBOX 360 Red Ring of Death I fixed


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


Clearly someone tried before but it was shoddy



 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


The old thermal paste had to be removed



 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


Cleaned of most of the thermal paste



 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


New screws and washers. These are the right ones much shorter



 


 


 


 


 



GPG and CPU cleaned to a mirror finish


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


Applied new thermal paste to heat sinks, CPU and GPU



 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 



Placed heat sinks on GPU and CPU with an additional mod for a more efficient cooling


 


 


 


 


 


Powered the unit up with the fans disconnected still showing the Red Rind of Death


 


 


 


 


 


 


Four minutes later the system is done RROD is gone!

I did a repair on my HTC Kaiser "Tilt" which cracked somehow. Got the parts I needed dirt cheap on e-bay and did the fix myself:

Crown Victoria Airbox Modification

Here is a small project I did to a Crown Victoria for better air flow as the stock seem restrictive. Many may agree and disagree that this really wont make much of a difference and they may be right but after the mod, the car sounded meaner sort of like a mustand and the owner say he noticed better gas milage.

My first post

This is my first post on here to initiate my blog. My goal or purpose on this blog is to post random things such as projects or things that I do. Whether it be working on my car or repairing a computer or some electronic device I will just post it on here and maybe it can also help someone trying to accomplish the same task or project. I will also post random thought photos and maybe videos.
