Trinity installation tips

I have done over 100 Slims and still have problems with installation. The most often problem is the blue wire position and inconsistent glitching which means that the console is not glitching and I hear fan reseting about twice a second. Sometimes it glitches every 6-7s, then resets a few times in a second, then continues with glitching.
Solution is always moving the wire around (often it simply mustn't be coiled).


The second problem is that I don't ever remember doing a Slim that always boots within 10s as mentioned in the guide. Yes, sometimes it does, but not always. Is it really possible to have less then 10s consistent boots on majority of Trinity motherboards?

I would really like to see some photos with stable installations.

PS: Using Coolrunner with default wires, wire installation.

Weel there really isnt a solid answer to your problwem. As every console is different. what works for one, may not really work for the next. Its a matter of trial and error.
Personally i think we should just be happy that we can even do this. I dont let erratic boot times bother me too much. i use the qsb and find what works best for each one. i just consider it part of the learning curve

If you here the fan twice a second there's summert wrong once every 5 seconds and somtimes does a dubble glitch(fan) every 5seconds

It depends on many things, wiring and solder, techniques etc. Mine boots instant and then second boot 30s and varies from cold boots to normal boots
