He was barking, so I thought he wanted food. Guess not.
It was in a TV stand close to the floor, and he just whizzed all over it. I'm pretty sure some got into the vents, but luckily it was off so I think I'll be able to save it. This comes a whole hour after the disk drive wouldn't open and I had to (taking Microsoft's advice) jam a paper clip in there to get it working.
Go ahead, get a good laugh. Done? Alright.
I'm wondering what the best thing to do now is. I wiped it down super fast, but I know some went inside, so I'm wondering if I should -
A) Just wait a couple of days and see if it works.
-or-
B) Take it apart and clean it out.
Since my warranty is already expired, I'm probably gonna go with B. My question is, what should I clean it out with? Even if it all dries have a feeling it will leave some sort of junk behind that will make it short when I turn it on. I've heard using distilled water as it doesn't leave behind minerals, but I should probably get an okay before I start wiping down the circuit boards with distilled water. Anyone experienced with electronics cleaning/repair wanna help me out?
Thanks. I hope you guys use this as a lesson - put that expensive crap high up.
EDIT: I literally lmao'd at a thread similar to this a couple of months ago. Karma?
My Dog Just Peed on my 360
If you're gonna open it use rubbing alcohol to clean it because it evaporates fast,though If I was you I'd just leave it alone for a few days.
If you open it up don't use water. Get some Isopropyl Alcohol and clean it with that, you can get it either in bottles or on pre-applied [usually sterile] pads where ever you can buy First Aid Supplies. You may even have some lying around the house in a first aid box.
" @ryanwho said:LOL." That 360 now belongs to you dog. "Is that how it works? In that case I now own a large number of london streets, several doors, and a small thai prostitute. "

So I decided to take it apart, and stripped it down to the motherboard and components. I then realized I didn't have any rubbing alcohol or distilled water, so I just cleaned everything off with Q-tips. I managed to get rid of a TON of dust, but luckily thanks to the 360's design I don't think much urine made it into the insides.
After cleaning everything, I put it back together and...
I think anyone with a dog should put their consoles higher up than they can pee.
They are dogs, they don't know the difference between a 360 and a fire hydrant, they also like to pee on things.
" Good thing it wasn't a PS3, you don't want the "yellow" light of death. ...Still funnier than Dane Cook. "It's not, but I give you points for using "than" and not "then."
" Urine luck. "
Also If the dog can so easily pee on it, then you should consider moving it to avoid any other mishaps.
Here are the exact order of things that you NEED to do by the microsoft technical manual included with your xbox 360 (remember that thing):
1) Take a knife or some other fairly sharp object (Even a small screwdriver) and drive it into the skull of your dog
2)slit this open wound down the front of your dog creating an open incision and letting the internal organs hang in the open
3) clean off the jelly from your HUD and get rid of the internal organs
4) stick the xbox 360 into the dogs cavity
5) close the wound by stitching your most recent achievement title into the seam of the previously open wound
6) ship it to One Microsoft Way Redmond, WA (Bill Gates Address)
I would piss on that bitch and then get yourself a copy of nintendogs and play it infront of her.
Then I would apologize and take her for a damned walk!
Also I got to know after you clean it when you start it back up if it makes the whole room smell of dog piss when it heats up.
