as usual with me, doesnt fucking work, nothing works, everything i break everybody else seems to have a fix, doesnt work for me though, such a pisstake.
My xbox has survived the RROD, E73, AND E74...How? I just unplugged and it and it worked just fine, this video will be sort of a back up if unplugging it fails and I ever get the E73 message again, thanks.
This man's procedure intentionally overheats the XBox, which is poorly designed to disapate heat. The number one rule in electronics is AVOID OVERHEATING TO PREVENT DAMAGE. The number two rule is DO A SHUTDOWN RESPONSE TO ERROR CODES TO MINIMIZE DAMAGE. The eventual, but temporary circumvention of the error to allow startup, may be a design used by technicians with special equipment and knowledge to diagnose and repair the XBox; WITHOUT CAUSING FURTHER DAMAGE. Pay them, get fix, be happy.
Slowly take off your pants and then dip your testicles in to the hole of the center of the disk tray. Then close the disk tray and sing Puff The Magic Dragon three times, if it is still not operating then rub the CPU and the hard drive around your anal cavity while singing twinkle twinkle little star. I have done this three times on three different consoles and each one has worked and they have never broken down since. GOOD LUCK!
if you truly have questions I have a new channel called the7rend just click the red box in the video to go to there and you can then send me a message.
Worked great! Only had to leave the paper clips in for maybe 5 minutes until it went to 2 rings. Started up the first time after i took them out. Thanks again!
Thank you very much for posting this video, I found it very easy to cut up a metal coat hanger and make U shaped fan locking devices to fix my unit. I would like to add one thing to your instruction to prevent frying the proc. After getting the 2 left reds and unplugging the machine, wait 15 more minutes for system to cool to prevent further damage.

I got the three lights after 5 minutes and was about to flame this video Ducreux style, but then I unplugged and re-plugged everything and turned on my Xbox and it worked smoothly. So thanks for the help, sir.
@NICKERDOODLE32 in the vid u had to turn it off and on again a few times to get it to work... how many times did it take u? just wondering if my xbox is a lost cause or if i just havent done it enough to make it work.
hey i just tried this and it worked right away but after it signed on it gave me a message saying " your xboxb360 console is designed to automatically shut down to protect it from insufficient ventilations. ..... do not do etc .

@songoishot I used to never use the Ethernet port either. I had the 360 wireless adapter. I took it to my Bro's house one day and didn't have it, so I wired it. Worked great with no problems. We only played it for a few hours and went to bed. Next day... Turned It on and BAM!!! Bullshit E73 error. (Mind you it winter and the heat didn't work.) So I was&still am pissed about this. (Never got to play Halo Reach) Over heating would have been easier. Could of just over heated it like my old 360.
@crazyross2010 Just out of curiosity, Do you have a 360 with HDMI? I used to rap my old one in a towel and would work for about 2 months, then a few days, then a few hours, then eventually I had to just leave it on because every time I turned it off stopped working. Eventually it stopped working altogether. so I got a new one.
E73 is an ETHERNET ADAPTER ISSUE!!! (Hits the letter E before 73) It has nothing to do with over heating. Your just going break your console doing this.
@ABLUEWAKADOO its amazing i dont use my ethernet and i got it and over heating it os it resets it self works 100% of the time for me for a good month or so
Hey i think my xbox work perfectly, its my hardrive who laggs the xbox i need to buy another 1, do i lose all my succes and games and all shitt map pac and all thats shit stuff yo ??
Hey this actually worked for me. I didn't want to overheat my xbox on purpose, but when I called my local repair repair shop which my xbox is still under warranty, they said repair time time is 7 days. Now I got it up and running thanks to this.
Hahaha people don't try this cuz it fucks up your xbox, he said it was only temporary too so... yea haha. I tryed this and I got rrod the next week. So now I'm fd
@simleSUNSHINE Don't. I take electronics class, and the IC's inside the xbox are very sensitive to heat. Doing this is TEMPORARY. It will fuck up your xbox even more.
you fools! EVERYTIME YOU DO THIS IT MAKES IT HARDER FOR A PRO TO DO A RE-FLOW, WHEN IT DOES EVENTUALLY FAIL THEN IT WILL NEED A FULL RE-BALL (WHICH KILLS ABOUT 20% IN THE PROCESS) WHEREAS IF YOU JUST PAID THE 80$ TO A PRO AND FIXED THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM WITH FANS/NEW HEATSINK THEN YOU WOULD HAVE A 360 LAST FOR THE NEXT 20YEARS AT LEAST WITHOUT RRODing!

Ok, so for my xbox i had the same thing earlier today, when i turned it on i was like wtf? And went on youtube and searched error code e73 bla bla bla i turn my xbox on right now it doesent do anything there is no red ring of death nothing on the screan just the green turn on sign in the middle i need some help i really want my xbox fixed i only had it for 3 years please SOS
the thing is its a next gen console and the innards should be top notch YOU SHOULD NOT have to do this in the first place a xbox360 if they were made correctly SHOULD last a minimum of 5 to 7 years with out a hitch like the ps3!!
i'm not a ps3 fanboy i had a 360 and in one month i had to replace it 2 times and the 3rd one i destroyed in a video on my channel and I'll NEVER BUY another one if MICRO$OFT gave me the money for it
@PhoenixWolfie You are right in many ways. Because of the fact my PS2 still runs fine even some of my older systems like my Genesis and N64 still run and they are way older then 5-7 years. This is bullshit and my brother and I refuse to continue dumping out hard earned money towards this shit. Not to mention, when you get a new console you void a lot of DLC that was bought on alt. profiles. I think I am tired of this generation of consoles and I want the new ones to hurry up.
I really hope this is permanent even though you said it might not be. I could not afford to pay some1 to fix it and this worked great thanks so very much.
You guys, there are enough movies of dudes fixing xboxes the right way! This quick fix is genius for 2 or 3 of xbox errors, and DOES work...for only GPU (graphics chip)problems only! BUT, you can do it 2-3 times, then your xbox is fried for good. Having said that, a xbox can have 1001 different problems, unrelated to those graphics chip failluires. Learn to fix proper, its a good education for youz kids....in the worst case it could be a challenge and amusing to do
AMAZING!!!! Thanks so much for posting this, it worked right away! So easy to do!
I ordered a new Xbox when mine died yesterday (out of warranty) , but I couldn't wait for it to arrive! I expect it will die again soon enough, but for now it's a great temporary fix till my new box arrives.

yes! yes! how awesome~ your a total genius! next time i lose my keys ill check in to your site for your post on how to check your pocket for lost keys. next week.....find out how to check the top of head for lost sunglasses..SUBSCRIBE!
holy fucking shit IT WORKED!! so much dust came out... guessing thats was the problem. i would suggest to anyone else with this problem to use a compressor or a reverse vacuum to blow out the dust occasionally on their xbox to avoid long term damage. thank you!!!
but if you have already removed the body, you could just disconnect the fans instead (at the back of the console) because we tried it, and it worked first time.
WOW. Please do not do this to your system. It is the same as the towel fix and both are critical to the life of the system. Find a person localy that dose reflow's and or reballs on cpu gpu. you can find a person that will reball your system for like 40 or 50 bucks if you look around and 12volt fan mod the system. This will allow you to keep gaming for real. It is worth the money i would suggest a reball over a reflow but its up to you what you spend.
this happened to me last year so got new x box as didnt know about this, just done it on the old one and worked no problem thanks, now have a spare :)
there is another way you let it overheat by blocking the fans then unplug it then plug it back in after it cools down then turn it on and put alot of pressure on the side that has the rubber things on it and if you do it right it will start up the first time but you will have to do that every time you turn it on unfortunately
1. Ok, so the problem is the Graphic Card wich is now loose.
2. The trick with the fan block works on maybe 5% of the Xbox's.
3. I know a way wich works maybe 70-80% of the time, wich is opening the Xbox, clean and attach the Graphic Card on to it's place again. NOTE: This may work for 2 Weeks - 8 Months (Usually) But the average time for it to work is 2 Months. You can do this yourself but it's quite hard.
4. If your warranty is gone, buy a new one, cus MS does: Info nr. 3! ;)
Worked great. Mine is out of warranty so not worried about permanent damage since it's a brick either way. Hopefully I can get actual RRoD (3 rings) so it will be fixed under warranty.
I would like all of u to know about this trick. This reheats the soder then cools it in place. So tht being said it could work for a month or a week. In order to get total value of this after waiting till the two rings come up let it sit for about 1hr to let the board cool. If this done multipule times your board will run hotter each time
This is another verion of the towel trick, this mod is never worth and pay the $40 to get it reflowed and x-clamped, or $65-$80 for a reball, and itll never break.
@786GiANT you gotta look around, sorry for the late reply. Mine was reballed, from this guy on xbox-scene, supersdude1691, he in Fl and he reflows, or reball. He also sells consoles.
NOTE THIS IS NOT PERMANENT....IT WILL WORK FOR A WHILE AND MAY COMPLETELY ERASE YOUR PROBLEM BUT MOST OF THE TIME WILL GET THE CODE AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN TILL THIS WONT WORK AND UR STUCK WITH A CODE THAT WONT GO AWAY...IM IN THIS SITUATION...IF ANYONE KNOWS WHERE I CAN SEND THIS TO GET IT FIXED CHEEP TILL I GET A NEW ONE FOR XMAS PM ME PLEASE
Fixed mine first try. I think overheating it resets the chip inside

holy fucking shit IT WORKED!! so much dust came out... guessing thats was the problem. i would suggest to anyone else with this problem to use a compressor or a reverse vacuum to blow out the dust occasionally on their xbox to avoid long term damage. thank you!!!

@olywrestler140 dont do that with your xbox unplugged or at all is best that can cause static that will damage the xbox same goes for computers.

Hey man, thanks this really helped,
but if you have already removed the body, you could just disconnect the fans instead (at the back of the console) because we tried it, and it worked first time.

WOW. Please do not do this to your system. It is the same as the towel fix and both are critical to the life of the system. Find a person localy that dose reflow's and or reballs on cpu gpu. you can find a person that will reball your system for like 40 or 50 bucks if you look around and 12volt fan mod the system. This will allow you to keep gaming for real. It is worth the money i would suggest a reball over a reflow but its up to you what you spend.

there is another way you let it overheat by blocking the fans then unplug it then plug it back in after it cools down then turn it on and put alot of pressure on the side that has the rubber things on it and if you do it right it will start up the first time but you will have to do that every time you turn it on unfortunately

Let it cool down for more than a few seconds. Give it 20 minutes to an hour at least so that the solder can settle.

Here's some info.
1. Ok, so the problem is the Graphic Card wich is now loose.
2. The trick with the fan block works on maybe 5% of the Xbox's.
3. I know a way wich works maybe 70-80% of the time, wich is opening the Xbox, clean and attach the Graphic Card on to it's place again. NOTE: This may work for 2 Weeks - 8 Months (Usually) But the average time for it to work is 2 Months. You can do this yourself but it's quite hard.
4. If your warranty is gone, buy a new one, cus MS does: Info nr. 3! ;)

@Luffy490 Did you open your xbox when you blew on the fans or you just blew on the outside of the xbox?

Worked great. Mine is out of warranty so not worried about permanent damage since it's a brick either way. Hopefully I can get actual RRoD (3 rings) so it will be fixed under warranty.

Don't do this... Get it fixed the right way. Use the Southbridge X-Clamp-Fix

I would like all of u to know about this trick. This reheats the soder then cools it in place. So tht being said it could work for a month or a week. In order to get total value of this after waiting till the two rings come up let it sit for about 1hr to let the board cool. If this done multipule times your board will run hotter each time

This is another verion of the towel trick, this mod is never worth and pay the $40 to get it reflowed and x-clamped, or $65-$80 for a reball, and itll never break.

786GiANT 1 year ago
@786GiANT you gotta look around, sorry for the late reply. Mine was reballed, from this guy on xbox-scene, supersdude1691, he in Fl and he reflows, or reball. He also sells consoles.
