So I got a 360 off of ebay for like $5. The seller said that he doesnt have a power brick to test it out (which I highly doubt honestly) but I got it anyway. It's a launch console in mint condition. Tried powering it on, rrod after 30 seconds error code 0022... opened it up and it looked alright til I pulled the mobo out... somebody stabbed the board with a screwdriver... and its on the gpu - memory bus... should I try repairing it or is it a waste of time?

Re: Old 360 trace repair
that's an easy fix with a good iron and some fine wire.
btw, he probably didnt have the psu - they sell for more than the console to the ham/cb radio guys.Last edited by stj; 08-19-2018, 05:18 AM.Comment

Re: Old 360 trace repair
PCB probably got damaged when the previous owner(s) tried to remove the X-clamps for the heatsinks. I nearly damaged several consoles like that back when I first started working on them.Comment

Re: Old 360 trace repair
Probably. At first those things are a pain in the a$$ to remove. But after removing em dozens of times they come off pretty easily. I actually damaged a board whilr removing an x clamp. It was an old zephyr. Still worked tho. Opened it up to change the thermal paste and while I was removing the gpu x clamp my screwdriver slipped and ripped like 10 of those little smd caps under the southbridge. Surprisingly the thing still worked afterwards but boot times were pretty messed up. Sometimes it took over a minute to boot.Last edited by nick122; 08-22-2018, 04:22 PM.Comment

When I assembled dreamcast I mistakenly fastened long bolt and It resulted in
cutting tiny trace.
This tiny trace(Total width of white coating is 5.5mm) is between R337,R343 and IC101 and it is covered with white coating in the below screenshot.
Firstly I tried to bridging tiny broken trace with my own eyes...But it is totally impossible..So a week ago, I ordered G1200 Digital Microscope and I magnified this tiny broken trace with it.
But It seems that It is really very tiny trace So I plan to order 0.1mm coper wire from aliexpress in order to bridging... -

Hi guys,
I've been trying to restore this Yamaha RM1X groove-box I bought, and the first thing on my agenda was to replace a bad capacitor that was making it so that the screen was super dim. As I'm a complete novice I went and accidentally pulled off one of the trace pads for the SMD capacitor as I was removing it, pulling up some of the green PCB with it. I've been trying to repair it by gluing down copper tape from where it began to pull off and solder the capacitor on after...atm I've just been attempting to do the same kind of thing on rubbish PCBs I got at a recycling place,... -
I'm working on repairing a keyboard, there is trace damage on the membrane. So I got my little pen of silver conductive trace repair paint and repaired the trace. Let it completely dry, test it, and its not working. So I take my multimeter out, put it on continuity, touch 2 different area of the paint, and nothing. I put it on resistance, I get OL most of the time, occasionally it might flash to something ridiculous like 17 mega ohms or something.
Why is this stuff not working? This is what I am using https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B88B9KI -
Hi,
I will add a photo of HP 15 laptop mainboard. The positive side of CMOS battery holder solder pad has been broken. What I want to ask is, the trace of positive pole. If you look at the photo, you will notice red color "A" and "B" letters for two different shades of blue.
Anybody help?...12-20-2024, 02:41 PM
