RGH POST_OUT1 Alt Point Problems

[tangyraptor]

Hi everyone,

I have a Falcon 360 with a Coolrunner Rev B. I went through the whole process and had everything working but when I went to reassemble the 360, the POST_OUT1 wire got caught and it pulled free from the board. This ruined the main point on the bottom of the board.

I have been trying to make the alt point work to no success. I 95% sure it is not a problem with the other points, as they were not only working before but I have also checked them under a scope and reflowed them just in case.

I have been messing with this for a while, so to make sure I did not damage the Xbox when the POST_OUT1 wire was jerked free, I flashed my original NAND and it does boot back into stock dash. I have checked and rechecked since to make sure I went through the correct procedure to flash the glitch ECC.

When I attempt to boot the Xbox, I see nothing on the TV and after 3 seconds the green light on the Xbox starts blinking. I never see the green light on the Coolrunner, only the solid red.

Is there anyway I can test with a multimeter to make sure the yellow is making good contact with the track? It is pulling solder but at this point, I believe it has to be the issue unless someone else has a better theory?

Thanks for any help.

you could start with posting pic of your install

Sorry, left out a crucial detail. After I ripped off the POST_OUT1 wire, I attached to the trace on the top of the 360 and somehow shorted out my Coolrunner Rev A (smoke coming off of the Coolrunner). I ordered a replacement Coolrunner and I am able to boot into my 360 with the stock NAND, so I do not think it caused any damage to the 360.

This would be a good point to advertise in the request a service and get someone to fix this for you.

I'll get some pictures soon.

I already replaced the Coolrunner and again, the Xbox still seems to be functioning properly as I can boot with the original NAND.

I'll look into the request a service thread you mentioned but I would still be open to any ideas you guys might have about the issue.
