My Problem
My roommate's old xbox360 red ringed over two years ago. Since he was too lazy to ever do anything about it I figured I would give it a go while mine is still alive.
My Fix
Failure. Installed the kit, no luck. So I bought a heat gun to attempt the reflow for the gpu, which also didn't work.
My Advice
I kinda wished I had gotten a heat gun before I installed the kit. The multiple disassemble and reassemble probably improve my chances of it working. Maybe I just didn't see it, but a strong recommendation to buy a heat gun, or another RROD kit that includes a heat gun would be great. Maybe even a starter kit with tools and heat gun and refill kits with thermal paste and heat sinks.
