Xbox Common Repairs, Capacitor Removal, Belts, & Controller Cable

About this video

Three original Xbox consoles get repairs, from capacitor removal and new belts to a mended controller cable, with a warning against prising the case open with a screwdriver.

Good to know: Mains voltage inside, and large capacitors that stay charged after unplugging. Never look into a powered disc drive laser. Soldering means burns and fumes; old solder contains lead.

Why watch it

Three consoles needed work, and the maker is surprised the belts have failed so soon, so the drive belt is worth a look on any original Xbox. A first console video for the channel.
