Hardware console not turning on

[Ultra_Magnus]

I have a Trinity Xbox 360 Slim that won’t turn on properly.... its not a modified one.. There’s no red light issue,, just a single green dot when I power it on, but nothing appears on the screen. I’ve already tried different HDMI cables, power bricks, and TVs, but no luck...
I came across a Reddit post about this issue (called the "Green Dot of Death"), and the user eventually gave up on repairing it. Has anyone successfully fixed this, or is my console beyond repair? Any advice would be appreciated!

Have you tried an AV cable if you can?

I don't have any AV cables...

I've had this happen before. It is similar to E74. I had a reflow and it worked after that.

Reflowing the GPU (no reballing) and replace thermal paste.

Don't use Reddit for answers, they are very much useless.

What sequence does the power LED show? On some 360's, the LED will be orange instead of green, but the rest remains the same.

The 360 S does not have the same overheating issues as compared to the early revision phats like the Xenons and Falcons before Mar '08.
