Xbox Series S: Can anyone help me identify the value of this component please?

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 14:37:40 -0700

Hi guys,

I recently had a Series S brought to me with a power issue. The console power button would flash just once, no beep, then go right off again. I was then able to rule out the power supply and both the power / rf boards using parts from a working console.

After completely stripping the console down, I found a little water damage near the MP2926 IC under the heatsink which has completely ruined the component there. Does anyone know what this component is, and more importantly, the value of it?

I really appreciate anyone taking the time to look at this post, I hope you guys can help me out.

Kind regards,

Chris

Xbox Series S: When booting up a game the xbox goes back to the dashboard

Tue, 31 Mar 2026 02:16:12 -0700

I can download games fine from the store. However, when I boot up the game, the game boots up and then goes blackscreen for less than a second and the xbox button on the front of the console. Flashes 2-3times and goes back to the dashboard.

Xbox One S: Why Isn't My Xbox One S Working?

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 13:24:39 -0700

My Xbox One S Is Giving Me No Signal On My TV. But The Light Won't Turn On Unless I Press The Eject Button, It Will Run For Maybe 5 Or 10 Minutes Without Picture, Then Power Down. Neither The Power Or Sync Buttons Will Work.

Does Anyone Have Any Clue What's Wrong With It? I'm Thinking About Replacing The HDD Drive And Internet Power Source. Also I Don't Have A Brick Power Cable I've Got Just The Basic Plain Cable If That Helps Any.

Hi,

my original xbox drive once turned on and you press the eject button, the tray opens and then closes constantly and does not stop unless you switch off the unit.

there is no way to stop it from opening and closing.

what do you see as the issue? do I need to replace my drive?

Xbox 360 S: 360s powers on then off red light on psu

Sun, 22 Mar 2026 09:30:30 -0700

So here is the story: I repair rrod xbox consoles so my friend thought he would buy a cheap 360s on ebay (warranty seal broken) that was broken and have me fix it. The problem is that when i try to power on the xbox it chimes, turns off, and the light on the brick is red. The power brick powers up the halo reach 360s that i own so the problem is not the psu. I have checked all of the usb ports to make sure nothing is shorting out. I have also taken the mobo out of the chassis and all the solder connections look fine. I was looking around the web and some people were reporting that this could be due to a bad mosfet. I was wondering if this was true and if it is how i would go about testing the mosfets figure out which one is bad. Also if any one has and other ideas feel free to share them.

Thanks and sorry for the long description,

Cody

I have an Xbox series s that was no power. It had a short on the 12v line and after probing around and a couple other non related stuff I had found that a buck ic was shorting the 12v. I could only get 1 very terrible picture of it before removing it and at the same time removing the markings.

Xbox 360: My disc tray is stuck. Reads games fine.

Sat, 07 Mar 2026 07:00:31 -0700

I'm very new to tech DIY, but it is new found interest and I am trying my best, I bought a project 360 and everything works fine apart from the disc drive. I took the housing off the disc drive, put a game in it, built it back up and it reads fine, but won't open on it's own. I think the slider mechanism slides too far, locking it in position but I'm not sure. I will provide photos for reference, since it reads discs I'd rather fix it than replace it and waste the rest of the parts. Thanks.

Xbox One: Installing a blank internal hard drive

Fri, 06 Mar 2026 23:16:20 -0700

Hey guys! The internal hard drive of my Xbox One broke completely into the point that it is unreadable by the Xbox and my PC. It was a simple hard drive failure, with the hard drive ‘reading hand’ somehow lagging, which caused the magnetic structure of the hard drive to lose all data. This means I cannot transfer any data from the old drive to a theoretical new drive.

Can I simply buy a blank new hard drive, punch it in the Xbox One and turn it on? Or somehow use a flash drive to install a new OS on the hard drive? Is there any way I can make my Xbox One work again?

Thanks in advance :)

Xbox One: Xbox One disc drive spins up but does not detect disc

Fri, 06 Mar 2026 04:50:33 -0700

When i put in a disc, it spins up, but nothing appears
it also sometimes makes some strange beeping noises before spinning up..
oh, and it sometimes reads a DVD but normally says 'No disc in drive.'
my guess is that something isnt connected right but im not exactly sure...
