Xbox 360 Laser  for Benq

 Brand new original replacement lens for Xbox 360, compatible with model HOP-1401 only

* Your games are taking much longer than before to load.
* Your Xbox is having trouble reading certain games.
* Watching DVD's is a pain thanks to flickering screens and jumping scenes

This part will only fit the Benq drives which are starting to appear in the most recent consoles.

First you will need to take your 360 apart. There are other guides to show you this. Then remove the DVD-Rom. Once you have your drive out turn it over and take out the 4 screws. Remove the top and bottom covers.

Now that we have the drive apart and ready we need to prepare the new Laser Unit.

There is a big solder point on the side of the Laser Unit that needs to be removed for it to work. With a desoldering pen or desoldering wick remove the solder. Here is another pic of the Original 360 Laser Unit but it will give you the general area of where the solder is if you can't figure it out from the pic above.

Removing the old Laser.

Remove the Ribbon Cable in the above pic by carefully sliding it out. Be very careful not to damage the cable.
Turn the drive over.

In the pic above you will need to push the black clamp labled 'A' to the right while lifting up on the right side of the board. Only pic it up just enough to remove the 3 cables shown. And again be very careful not to rip or damage the cables. After the 3 cables are removed you can take the board off and set it off to the side.

With a small screwdriver remove the 3 Screws shown above. After removing the one at the top take the white cover and flip it over off of the Laser Unit. The 2 at the bottom just remove the screws and the black pieces holding the rails down. Then pop the rails up with your fingers and slide the Laser unit off.

Slide the new one back on and put your drive back together. Just follow the guide backwards.
