Please make sure you follow this tutorial from
the beginning:
There's no visual method to distinguish a v1.4 from a v1.5. Xbox v1.5 has power and ground disconnected from
LPC. So you will have to measure if pin 2 (ground) on the LPC-bus is
connected to the ground plane (a screw, for example).
Please Note: you will probably have a version 1.4 because not many
1.5 versions were made.
First locate the LPC area on your Xbox
main circuit board, it is in the same position for all versions.
Use a multimeter to check if pin2 (yellow point on image) is connected
with ground (screw plate for example).

Do you have:
LPC-Bus Connected to Ground: You have a Version 1.4
LPC-Bus Not Connected to Ground: You have a Version 1.5
