You might have to resort to using a heat gun.

what secondary error code are you getting?are you overheating chips after fix(without fans on?)i always overheat so it goes from 3rrrod to 2 rrod then power off,allow to cool then power on.otherwise heatgun is your only option

Yea man, it all depends on what your secondary error code is. If you have like a 0020 error, the xclamp fix is not exactly a guarantee, you will need to reflow the box.
Also, you could have your screws on too tight...

found the erorr Details for Error -/0002 replace MOSFETS
Description:This error code is caused by a cold solder joint under the CPU or by a problem with the way it is powered(blown mosfet, capacitor or a short)
According to xbox-scene it is also a problem with the ethernet chip but I doubt that this is true.

Primary Errorcode 3 red lights 3 RLOD
E-Code / Secondary Errorcode - (no Audio/Video) / 0002
Known fixes:
1) Replace any broken capacitors/mosfets etc. or get rid of something that is shorting out in the CPU area.
2) X-Clamp replacement(CPU)
3) Reflowing the solder with a heatgun
Concentrate on the CPU.

No relative errors..

So all I can tell you is to try reflowing... If that doesnt work, you will need to test and replace any dead capacitors/mosfets

I actually replaced the ethernet chip on one system and that was the fix exactly. It took some patience and a steady hand. But it worked great.
