The guy I bought mine from has an eBay store goin' on and he provided links and edits for tutorials on how to do it and NOT do it. Then he even asked if I needed help, he would give me his Messenger. Cool cat. He also sells some that he's already repaired. And I must say, he goes through a bit more than just the average Xclamp fix. If you're interested, I'll give ya his ebay name or a link. As for my 360's, my Elite is still cherry and rockin' on. The one that I got from eBay (pre-repaired) from dude, is fine too. I just bought the kits as an insurance policy. Besides, I figured that if I buy the guy's kits, he'll definitely be there if I need his help. Oh yeah, they were $9 I think. He'll only charge for the first kit's shipping. Any additional are free shipping.

Got the xecuter kit, i'll post some pics of it soon. What a waste of money. All you get is 2 screwdrivers (which i already have) and 4 thermal pads. You don't even get instructions.

No wonder they never posted pictures, it is just a quick money making scheme.

I take it the pads are for the memory chips or something. Is it just like the coin trick that i have seen can anybody guess?

I'll have to get some screws and washers i think coz i'm not convinced that this kit will do anything.


I bought this kit and it worked great, you should have gotten this one-->http://www.x-clamp-fix.com/catalog/product_info.php?info=p5_X-Clamp-Fix-DIY-Kit.html

oooh i forgot to tell you about the secreat , when you power on the 360 and it starts flashing red just hold down the snyc + eject its going to flash
in all or certain sections , if do this four times to get a number then depending on the number it depends on what issues it has.

for example i clicked snyc + eject and the first light was the top left

1

then i repeated the snyc eject and i got all four sections red, THESE for sections are 0 NOT 4

so now we have 1 0

again same process and i got two two lights so thats 2

1 0 2

and fianly i did it again and it didnt change so it was a 2 and after i thought i didnt click i clicked it and it went back to step 1

so now we got 1022

its a encoder error on the gpu since i tried switching the av cables
x clamp should work or re heating the chips by hot air gun or towel trick

credit goes to x-s and llama

That is very helpful, i'll check that out once i get the rrod 360 in the post.

I wouldn't buy the x-clamp fix from a shop as they are only screws and washers, just as much of a rip off as the xecuter fix i bought. What size screws/washers do i need to do the x-clamp fix?

thanks my find was hard and then i looked online to see what it meant and i wasnt the only one who discoverd this, so really its more of my credit on everything minus what they flashing sections ment, but oh well and i belive they are #8 washers 3 on each hole fellowed by 1 nylon

When the 360 has the 3 red lights, should the fans still power on and the dvd eject?

Got the 360 in the post, came with a hard drive but that has the e68 error so thats knackered. Gonna send it back as he never mentioned that and i only bought it for the hard drive. was gonna fix it and flog it on.
