Xbox One Kinect 2.0 tear down and repair guide. Cleaning out dust.

2013-11-25
all right today we have the Xbox Kinect 2.0 for the Xbox one this is Microsoft's camera and first we have to find the screws so underneath this void black tape that actually says Microsoft on it when you pill it up we're going to find a screws that line the bottom once you get those screws out the black plastic piece pops up and out which shows a bunch more screws that we have to remove and if you're just taking this apart to clean out the lenses you don't have to take these screws out so don't worry about that right now once you get the screws out you can take apart the back grille for the fan and then the side grilles also pop out you have to remove the side grilles because there's two more screws one on either side holding the front faceplate or lens cover to the actual device itself so once you take out those two screws the top will lift up and the front will pop off the actual connect of ice it's all nice and shiny and you can see the little lenses that cover the infrared and the other sensors on the front we have the actual device right here and you can see the main camera here and the emotion camera and then the other sensors and lenses right there now with the top motherboard is held on by these screws and the fan connector is here it's just your normal 5 volt DC fan and there's one more screw that holds on the little circuit board on the front they have to remove and then that exposes the little white ribbon that you can unclip from the main board and that separates the motherboard and heatsink from the actual device itself it's just the bottom plastic and then you have the two big wire cables holding the cameras onto the motherboard so I've unclipped both of those and you can see it also unclip down there at the bottom from the the other diodes in the center there and I found it interesting that they had like a foam covering over the processor so instead of using thermal paste they had like a thermal foam that connects the motherboard to the heatsink the key sink is massive so right here you're going to see much more screws that hold each individual component onto the heatsink itself and each one of those so here's the main camera with its own little thermal foam attached to it now we have the motion camera and then we have the rest of the the diodes and each of them has their own little processor that also has its own little foam attached to the massive heatsink anyway if you have any questions leave in the comments if you like this video don't forget to like it and don't forget to subscribe I put up videos fairly often hope to see you in
