Step 1
– Right in front of the CD drive, you’ll spot the iconic Xbox logo. Give a gentle press on the area just to the left of that logo, and voilà! The disk tray panel will pop right off, ready for your next move.
Step 3
– Keep that panel open, like you’re showing off a secret! It’s super easy to keep it propped open by using a spudger, or just hold it with your hands if you’re feeling strong.
– Now, turn that Xbox just a bit to the left. You’ll see a little clip holding the front panel together. Slide that spudger in there and give it a little wiggle. The clip should pop right off, and that panel will be as free as a bird!

Step 5
Take your time when peeling off the panel—rushing can lead to some serious ribbon cable damage! Gently coax it away and you’ll be just fine.
Step 6
– Now, let’s put your device back together, just like following the steps in reverse! You’ve got this!
– If you ever feel like throwing in the towel, remember, it’s totally okay to take a break. No pressure!
– Remember, if you need any assistance along the way, you can always schedule a repair.
