Re: Original Xbox Replacement Caps
Hello,
Well after 20+ years my orig Xbox 1.0 finally started to Frag a couple of days ago.
The 4 Caps near the Cpu are leaking from the top. (the right most cap isn't)
The clock cap leaked all over the board too.
I removed the clock one and cleaned up the MB using 91% rubbing alcohol with Q-tips.
I couple of questions:
Where do I buy the Cpu replacement caps? Links please. (I'm in NH, USA)
Is a 15watt iron ok? That's what I used to remove the clock cap.
I also have a 45watt de-soldering red bulb (radio shack) iron too, is that ok to clean the holes of solder? (I didn't use it yet)
The pic shows the cpu caps, I removed the orange stuff leaking from the top to see the writing on them.
Thank-you, Michael
