How to Take Apart Xbox 360 Slim to Clean

Unplug it, remove the hard drive, and take off the faceplate- then use a flat tool to pop off the side grills. Finally, unscrew the case. It sounds harder than it is, just be patient and gentle!

First, unplug everything and remove the hard drive. Then gently pry off the bottom and top grills using a flat tool like a spudger—watch out for the clips! Next, remove the screws (Torx T8 or T10) from the case, and carefully pull it apart to access the internals for cleaning. Keep track of where everything goes so you don’t end up with extra parts!

Just use compressed air and don’t bother taking it apart. Works well enough for me!
