Before you can do any repair for your XBOX 360 you have to be able to get to the components inside of the XBOX case. Now, I have to warn you. If you still have warranty on your XBOX 360 from the manufacturer don't tamper with the case. Opening up your XBOX during warranty will void it and you will not be able to have your XBOX repaired by Microsoft anymore. Having you XBOX repaired by Microsoft may be in some cases the easiest solution to some of the problems that you may come into contact with when dealing with your XBOX. Don't take the warranty for granted.

Otherwise, for people that have had their XBOX past the warranty period then go ahead and open you case. But be careful, you can damage the case while opening it and that damage might have you purchasing a new case to replace it. Below, is a tutorial that will explain the entire process of opening the case.

Steps:

1. Make sure the power cord and TV cords are not connected.
2. Removing the face plate.  It is as easy of unhooking the tabs behind the faceplate.  It is easiest done with a flat head screwdriver.
3. Next remove the two plastic pieces from the sides of the XBOX 360.
4. Use a special tool that you will find in the video to unhook other tabs that are not accessible with normal tools.
5. Now remove the front tabs from the unit case.
6. Remove 6 screws from bottom to release the top of the case.
7. The case is now open.
