Xbox One X - Cleaning it the Right Way!

Xbox One X - Cleaning it the Right Way! The outside of the Xbox One X game console is fairly easy to clean. You'll just need some sort of brush and/or canned air to remove any dust buildup. Also, you'll want to make sure that you've located the console in a well ventilated area. Be especially careful that nothing is right up against the sides of the console as that is where the intake air comes in.
When it comes to the inside of the Xbox One X the things to check are the same as with the Xbox One S (as well as the PS4 slim and PS4 pro). The fan and the heat sink are generally the two main items that need to be cleaned. You can use the same brush and canned air to complete this cleaning.

Followed the steps and even though most of the console was quite clean, i followed the steps right into the interior (by removing the fan) and there was the issue... there was a large build up up dust right under the fan on the heatsink. Cleaned it all out and the console is now super quiet and doesn't overheat. Thanks a million! (from one very happy daughter)

I got the plastic body off and disassembled it. I can't seem to find any videos on that part. Anyways I'm soaking it and scrubbing with dish detergent and vinegar. Then a good 91% alcohol rub down and doused with Febreeze. This is all after I've already left the console in a sealed bag with HELLA good smelling chemical products for over a week! I'll reassemble the body before I go any further with the video or else I'm gonna forget how it goes back together 😂 I appreciate the video breakdown here it's a life saver!

I'm here because my XIX cuts off every couple days - when I turn it back on its says it might be due to lack of ventilation. But its in an open area with nothing around it so I'm trying to clean it now - thinking its just dusty.

Old mate has no idea regarding cleaning clogged radiators!! Usual practice is to reverse airflow. Would be nice to have some clearer instruction for removal of ribbon cable???? Otherwise somewhat helpful.

Thanks for the help. I’ve done all of this, put it back together, and now it won’t turn on anymore.

To be clear, I went to college for electrical engineering. I know how to follow instructions and handle electronics. I followed this cleaning tutorial to a T, being extremely careful in every step. This guy explains everything very well and it's easy to follow.... except how to put it all back together. So, I put it all back exactly in reverse from his steps. Everything seemed great, until I tried to hit the eject disk button. Yeah, that doesnt work anymore.

Way more work then what it takes to clean my PS4 PRO to fan and heat sink 😱 oh well gotta maintain my X since it’s my preferred console.

It would be helpful to have a video showing how to put it back together. ESPECIALLY how to reconnect the locking ribbon. I didn't even intentionally unplug it bc I couldn't figure out how to disconnect it. It came disconnected accidentally. So that was really confusing trying to figure out how to get that back together. I thought my xbox was screwed! And I'd already had a bad night after taking my ps4 pro apart and disconnecting the power cord from the motherboard and completely destroying it 😢 so I was having a panic attack when that ribbon came apart and I didn't know if it was broke, reconnectable or what! Thank goodness it went back together

I'm very stupid and broke the ribbon cable connector for the disc drive button. Idk if it broke more than the physical disk drive button, but luckily the part looks relatively easy to replace if need be. Kinda wish you did a close-up of that one.
