Author Topic: Brother broke my xbox360 (Red Ring of Death)  (Read 3846 times)

Bump cause offtopic is more popular then I thought. 

All four rings were red, the power icon was green. When I opened the diskdrive it all flashes red.
So, it turns on, but when the disk drive is oepned it crashes?

buy a heat gun and some blutak and reflow the motherboard.

It's not overheated. Four rings technically means an AV cable failure. My friend hit the power brick of my xbox once when I brought it over to his house and it got 4 rings, and it works fine.



fable 3 is the bomb, man.

Sections 1, 2, 3, and 4 are flashing red
- The AV cable cannot be detected



THINGS TO TRY
Make sure that the AV cable is correctly connected to the Xbox 360 console.
Disconnect the AV cable from the Xbox 360 console, and then reconnect the AV cable to the Xbox 360 console.
If the four flashing red lights continue to flash, try wiping the metal area of the AV pack with a dry cloth. The metal area is the end that plugs into the console. Wipe the metal area thoroughly, and then try the AV Pack again.
If the AV cable is correctly connected but the four red lights are still flashing, substitute a different AV cable if you have one available.



Get a new power cord, if that doesn't work sell it on Craigslist for 20 bucks while it's under the towl trick.

if it's past 3 then you're screwed more than likely
lol, no, you're wrong

if all four were red then a good possible solution would be to let it sit for few hours to cool off
unplug the power thing from the Xbox and the wall
let them all cool

New situation: I'm blind. Only three are glowing. The forth one is a troll and pretends to light up. Naowat.

Your Xbox 360 has cancer. I'm afraid it's terminal.
