3. Introduction
This document describes a process for diagnosing and repairing Time Out
failures from the PCBA tester. The process and groupings below outlines
possible measurements to determine the appropriate component, for repair or
replacement.

4. Scope
This document has been developed from experience gained on X803158-001
Xenon XDK motherboards. The failure analysis process outlined in this document
should be used in conjunction with the “Motherboard Debug Guide Development
Process” document.

5. Audience
This document is aimed at Engineers and Technicians who are performing first
pass debug of core digital failures from the XBOX360 motherboard PCBA tester.

6. Process
Check the failure shown on the PCBA tester or in the TV and do procedure
according to the relevant category.

7. Time Out Error
7.1 Category A ODD or HDD no detected

0x817E07E2 -- SATA0 Replace South Bridge (U2E1)

0x817E07E1 -- SATA1 Replace South Bridge (U2E1)

• Check for proper ODD power voltages on J1D1 as shown below (V_12P0,
V_5P0 & V_3P3)

• Measure frequencies SATA_CLK_DP on FT1P2 (100MHz),

SATA_CLK_DN on FT1P1 (100MHz) and SATA_CLK_REF on FT2N4
(25MHz)

• If any of the frequencies are no present replace U3B4

• Check voltage on FB1P2, FB1P1, FB1P3 y FB1P4, 1.8v is expected on
each.

Test Name: TcsHarnessLoadDuration, Variation: PCBA

Error Code: 0x81510029
Error Facility: TCS (FACILITY_MTE_TCS_TESTER)
Error Description: An unexpected DUT reboot occurred

• Check lines between SB and J1C1

• Measure resistance on the following caps on SB side (positive probe to GND)

Signal Ref. Des. Value

ODD_RX_DP C1C3 0.7MΩ
ODD_RX_DN C1C4 0.7MΩ
ODD_TX_DN C1C5 7KΩ
ODD_TX_DP C1C6 7KΩ

• If the resistance on each cap is ok then replace U2C1

o Test Name: TcsBootStrappingDuration, Variation: PCBA

Error Code: 0x81510027
Error Facility: TCS (FACILITY_MTE_TCS_TESTER)
Error Description: Indicates that the DUT bootstrap failed to load within the
specified timeout.

o Test Name: Sequence_DataVerification, Variation: Default

Error Code: 0x810907FF
Error Facility: DUT (FACILITY_H2_HDD)
Error Description: Fail to init device

o Test Name: TcsDutTestsDuration, Variation: PCBA

Error Code: 0x81510029
Error Facility: TCS (FACILITY_MTE_TCS_TESTER)
Error Description: An unexpected DUT reboot occurred.

• Check voltages on RT1R1 & R1U1 for 5v

• Check lines between SB and J1E1
• Measure resistance on the following caps

Signal Ref. Des. Value

HDD_RX_DP C1E1 Pin 2 = 16KΩ, pin 1 = 1.3MΩ
HDD_RX_DN C1E2 Pin 2 = 16KΩ, pin 1 = 1.3MΩ
HDD_TX_DN C1E3 Pin 2 = 38KΩ, pin 1 = 7KΩ
HDD_TX_DP C1E4 Pin 2 = 38KΩ, pin 1 = 7KΩ

Note: Do measures with positive probe to GND, pin 2 of each cap

is on the connector side.

• If the resistance on each cap is ok then replace U2C1

7.8 Category D No Boot

• If the board doesn’t show a front panel error code and the FT error code
fits on 0x81510027,

1. Check if the LAN is working, replace U1B1 as necesary

2. Replace U2E1 as a first repair,
3. If the failure is still present replace U2C1

7.9 Category E Error 0x4F (TV E79)
• If appear on the front panel 0x4F replace the following components in this
order. Some times could appear E79 on the TV.

Repair Component
1st U2E1
2nd U7D1
3rd U5F1/U5U1
4th U3E1/U3T1
5th U2C1

7.10 Category F Error 0x4A (TV E74)

• If appear on the front panel 0x4A replace U4D1 (GPU). Some times could
appear E74 (error 74) on the TV.

7.11 Category G Error 0x4B & Error 0x4C (TVE75 & TVE76)

Description: The video starts and suddenly appears the error code E76 on
the TV, Front panel code 0x4C or 0x4B

• Replace U1B1
• Replace U2C1

7.12 Category H Error 0x47 & Error 0x48 (TVE71 & TVE72)
