I have a v1.6 xbox and am trying to install a 2.6ce with the xapt3r. I have all the legs in the appropriate holes but only four lights turn on. the red, orange, yellow, and blue. the green does not turn on. I have looked around the forums looking for an answer but i have come up empty handed. thank you anyone that could help me.
xapt3r LED problem

These are my suggestions and I'm warning you that whatever you do is YOUR responsibility and you CANNOT blame me if things stuff up.
If you're absolutely sure that all the legs are in the appropriate holes and you happen to have a volt meter around then you could:
1. Remove the xapter all together
2. Turn the xbox on and see what voltages you get from the hole that powered the green LED
3. Put the xapter back in, turn the xbox on and re-measure the voltages on the green led leg and see if it matches or not. If not then could be the wrong hole or the leg is not pushed in properly
OR the problem might be a faulty LED itself. Try NOT removing the xapter and place your 2.6CE in place and boot the box up and see what happen. If it works then you can possibly say that the led is faulty. I think this is a better option than removing the xapter. I installed one and it was such a pain. It's better to solder the thing in instead.
