Trying to fix an old Xbox 360 Elite that has a dead ICS1893BFLF network chip.
Died due to a lightning. No power adapters where attached though. Only ethernet cable to router.
Everything else seems to work as normal on the Xbox.
So, for me to have something to do i was thinking this might be a little project for me.
Chips can be bought from ebay quite cheap.
Also could be a good time to use my new Quick 957DW hot air station.
Anyone else done this?
Any recommended tools, heat, air flow speed etc?
Obviously i do not have any schematics for the Xbox. But i have at least the data sheet for the ICS1893BFLF chip with block diagrams and pins.
Here is the link for that data sheet:

But everyone tells me that the chip is dead. And are a common issue when lightning hits the box via ethernet.
