How To Clean Xbox 360 Fan Without Opening

The Best Way to Clean My Xbox 360 Without Opening It?

Hey guys. I've been looking to clean my 360 for some time now and have been looking online for different solutions. I do not want to open up my console to clean it, but want to get rid of all the dust built up that is making my system very loud. I have looked at some people blowing compressed air into their systems and that seems to work, but some people are saying that it won't clean the dust out and just blow it around inside the system. So, I come to you fine folks for some advice for safely cleaning my console without opening it up.

 I will greatly appreciate any advice that allows me to resolve my issue. Also, if there is already a board with this question answered, feel free to push me toward that direction.

The compressed air thing works fine for me, just do it from a few different angels to make sure the dust comes out of a vent.

 Marriage, on the other hand, seems like it may have the opposite effect. Have you seen how dusty ladies are these days? And don't even get me started on dudes.

@HairyMike87: Which Xbox do you have? An original, elite or slim?

Dunk it in some hot soapy water for a few seconds. Then toss it in the dryer for several minutes. That oughta do it.

@HairyMike87: The best way to clean it is probably to open it up yourself and do it, but obviously if you are not careful you could do more harm than good, I am sure there are places that would do it for you cheaply it's just a matter of trust. If you don't want to risk this the compressed air method works and will definitely help it is just not possible to get all of the dust out this way.

It doesn't seem too difficult to remove the casing. If you aren't a tech-savvy person, read up on all the precautions when dealing with open electronics. For instance, don't put it on the carpet.
