Ive had an Xbox Arcade for about 2-3 years now, gotten a lot of service out of it. It only recently got a red 1/4 circle in the bottom right-hand corner of the power/circle thingy. What does this mean? Still works... I've heard people say it means it's overheating, but if that's the case, wouldn't it just cool down after you stop playing for a couple days? /i only play it like an hour or two every day or so anyways, why is it failing me now???
I have the RRoD right now. I went to the xboxslave site and bought the xclamp repair kit, but I want to know, is it the same kit with the rubber washers that's in this video?
I've heard of people needing to re tighten the screws after doing the overheat part which caused some to get loose. So if you're still getting the rings after this maybe try to retighten the screws or check your thermal paste application
I overheated my xbox 360, turned it off, and in 20 minutes later it worked again. It worked without me having to add more thermal paste or anything or even having to break it apart. Problem is eventually the red rings of death come back. Sooo....is this only a temporary fix? How is your fix different from mine? :(
@mdelavega19 the problem is that the console isn't getting rid of the heat. When it heats up the board flexes thanks to how the case was built. So the flexing combined with the heat is enough to mess with the soldering and basically lifts the CPU/ main chip ( not sure what one ). That causes the red rings. Just heating it is enough to reset it for the most part but the issue just comes back to how it was built.
i did this and couldn't believe it worked, except i got green as soon as i turned it back on after i screwed the sinks back down without letting it heat up again. when i put everything back together, i got the three rings again...i'm retrying it and letting it heat up. hopefully it doesnt work right off the bat again...
IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM! BUT TO ALL WHO VIEW THIS YOU DONT NEED THE SCREWS- just use the old x clamp and screws as long as the arctic is on it and you put it back together correctly your good to go!
First, I would like to thank you for creating this video and making it free to the public.I found all three of your videos very informative and most of all very helpful. I've been to numerous, videos on youtube and yours is the best by far. I have not repaired mine yet, however I have direction on how to fix it and what to purchase. I have some electronics assembly training and the fix for me will be very simple, and with your videos it makes the fix easy. Thank you very much.

The towel trick works for a very short time... this fix is easy, REAL, and it works for years. Trust me, I've done it. It has been a couple of years and now it's time to do it again. Much better than buying a whole new xbox.
Many thanks a lot for the video series. After being on the shelf for about a year I got the parts and fixed it in just over an hour. Works like new =)
this dude is a fake if u look at the little round circles in the front when he first turns it on there tan then when he said we will come back in 20 mins the xbox changes he put a new xbox there cuz no the circle have like yellow rubber around them so this dude is a fuckin fake
@alex3370944 hes not fake i just did it and it worked but i knew it will only work for like 40 min it worked for a hour thats better then nothing ill find away to make it last longer but its real but we need to find out how microsoft did it thats what we need to know so it can last for months
@alex3370944 IT worked for me. After leaving it for about 15 min there were two blinking red lights. Then I unplugged the power, plugged in the fan, plugged power back in, powered it up and it was all green. Not sure if it matters, but I also had the A/V cable plugged in as well.

how much thermal paste have you used? you don't want to use too much just enough to cover the two chips is all or whatever youre told to put paste on in this video. And many people say the thermal paste trick is permanent but it isn't for all xbox 360s. I recommend watching the video over again and check the thermal paste on the chips.
@inFamousJaySquirly well I think i used just a dab as in video. Do you think i used too much. someone said I need to use more even. But I guess I can take them off and reapply thermal paste.
also I used 1 metal and 1 rubber washer under the board and just 1 rubber for under each chip, because the chip would sit too high with 5mm screws!! so I didn't use as many washers! is that ok?
I'm not so sure about the washers thing I'll have to watch the video again. I'll get back to you on it, but if it doesn't work then I'd recommend getting a new xbox 360. They aren't that expensive nowadays, but if money is tight like it was for me then you can find a good used one. I was lucky to find me a limited edition resident evil xbox 360 with jasper chip online for $190 and it came with a game and two controllers. It isn't too hard to find a good xbox 360 for cheap.
I only had 1 ring before attempting to fix my xbox with your guide. I did everything you said, and it worked for a few minutes...now I have 3 rings. WTF happened ._.?
the 3 red lights mean its a overheating problem and thats when u use this method that he shows in this video one red light means ur xbox 360 has a hardware problem and not a overheating problem but now ur console has more problems sometimes this method works on whichever ring you get but most of the time you have to use a different method to fix the one red ring its easier to get it fixed by microsoft if you have the warranty

And then I will be telling everyone a nasty little secrets that Microsoft purposely withheld from the public! That reduced your game systems life by as much as 75%!

after u let it overheat and get to two red lights u turn off the console and dont put the plug the fans in yet then let it cool down for like 10+ minutes then turn it back on and the red lights should be gone then u can plug the fan in and put on the cover and reassemble the whole console after u trun it back off dont keep it on while reassembling it
The process of going from 3 lights to 2 lights took about 1 minute. Is this long enough? Should i leave it on longer even though it has 2 lights? Please help!
He should totally work for Microsoft.He's also really nice,we should pay him like atleast 20 bux for not letting us go and spend 300 bux for a new xbox...
ok i got a problem maybe someone kan help me with my 360's power cord keeps blinking orange but my xbox doesnt turn on ive heard its the RROD but different? does anyone know how to fix it?
I did everything u said to do but i still keep getting the red ring...should i put more thermopaste on and scrape the old stuff off? idk what to do now i just want it to work again
Well I did what u said and after doing it wrong a few times I figured out what I was doing wrong and finally got my green lights on..one blew out but the xbox still turns on and I'm happy with the results of your video also the comment the guy made about cleaning the extra thermal paste from around the chip worked too..thanks!
so i take the old screws out and i put new screws in i dont get it? whats the clear lub stuff do do i put it on the screws or something let me know thankx
does this really work? i have my whole xbox taken apart including the heat syncs taken off. If this works for real ill get the materials and start fixing it! Great video by the way, easy instructions!
@TheJukeBoxHero69 Thats not true. Although you need the drive to update the console you can turn it on and connect it to live without the drive. Ive done it many times recently
hey xbox slave, I have done everything step for step in your video and when i plug it in for overheating, it does not get hot at all.....why? And yes, i bought the kit from u guys.
It doesn't work for me. I used the thermal paste (even the gold one!) and turned the xbox on. It went from 3 red lights, to 2 red lights in a few minutes.
I then turned the console off, let it cool down and turned it on.... again Ring of death.
My Xbox had the 3 light problem and I´ve been able to fix it but almost immediately, the E74 error show up. Could you help me? Could it be because I didn´t put new screws and the rubber? Also, thank you for the video, I know it works; my problem is different.
my xbox gets the 2 red rings after about 2 minutes and then I turn it off and connect fan and that white thing. when i turn it back on it goes back to the 3 red rings. what do you think the problem is.
hey ive been trying to fix me own xbox and i have two problems....one is thaat me heat sinks dont look like the ones in the video ( i have the elite system which is black) and me xbox starts to work briefly but has lines on the screen and followed all procedures except for the washers and screws because once again me heat sinks are different...someone please help Rastaman!!!!!! Selassie-I
@FixYourOwnXbox i have the xbox 360 elite black 1 i tried this and same result rrod that part im kinda confused is where you turn it on without the fan so it can heat up after do i connect the fan? and my xbox 360 doesnt heat up plz respond i wanna play my xbox 360
@FixYourOwnXbox this isn't a question i wish to ask about the xbox, but you seem insane smart smarter then my dads friend who was a massive smart guy but..., are you graduated from college? or...?
@FixYourOwnXbox i dont get one thing, the title says 1 red light which what i have right now, but your video shows how to fix 3 rings, why is that??? i need help with 1 ring not 3, so can you help me
my xbox wouldnt get hot I left it on for mor then two hours and it didnt evan warm up so i conected the fan after that it started getting hot so after twenty minets i disconected the fan and it went to two lights so i left it cool off for about an hour and came back to it i conected the fan put the disc drive back on and turnd it on i seemed to have worked no more e74 but now it constantly goes to two red lights evan with the fans and turns off
@rednavaju that is because you have to put more thermal pound to the chips... trust me, the thermal pound just squeeze to outside the chip, you have to disassembly and put more thermal compound, in both chips (cpu gpu) and then reassembly, see what happen!!!! good luck!
you forgot to mention that without any additinal cooling mods, the problem will re-occur regardless of better heat sinks. The xbox problem is due to not having a decent level of heat removal and air flow to the inside of the case. I will be doing a case mod video of how im going to provide better cooling for free to an xbox 360
some videos show the board being attached to the steel case by drilling the wholes larger? is this true I guess because the board would move around if it's not attached? especially if you try to plug and unplug stuff the pressure would displace the board. Please reply.
@slingshot2427 the Machine Screws have to be Flathead other wise the pan head or the round head is too high for under the board and it will not sit flush in the case.
It wouldn't overheat on it own, put it in my oven and got it the heatsinks hot to the touch. Also I would only tight the nuts with just your fingers, it was too tight the first time I tried it until I did that.
this is not a good way of fixing i would rather take off xclamps and put flux under both GPU and CPU and on the ram chips put new thermal paste put heat sinks back on put 4 washers on each heat sink put xclamps back on then over heat it let cool then it should work i did this with 3 xboxs all are still work i can make a vid about it the fix shown in the vid is stupid i did this with same xboxs i fix with my metod and it worked for a week
@BigTonyWarrior it would likely help since the issues are caused by heat buildup. I also have to not my RRoD came after the kids starting playing Kinect games heavily.
@EpicWin Have you checked a tutorial on how to clean an xbox it might be clogged or it might be a hardware failure :l

It turned to 2 rings, but when i plug the fan back on and put the fan vacuum back on it turns back to 3rings.
Can someone please help?

The process of going from 3 lights to 2 lights took about 1 minute. Is this long enough? Should i leave it on longer even though it has 2 lights? Please help!

For those who asked the little black screws are of no use with the new ones and the thermal paste keeps the 2 chips cool from overheating and frying.

Well I did what u said and after doing it wrong a few times I figured out what I was doing wrong and finally got my green lights on..one blew out but the xbox still turns on and I'm happy with the results of your video also the comment the guy made about cleaning the extra thermal paste from around the chip worked too..thanks!

so with the new screws installed i guess you cant screw in the 4 little black screws on that held the xclamps to the case, do you just not use them?

@TheJukeBoxHero69 Thats not true. Although you need the drive to update the console you can turn it on and connect it to live without the drive. Ive done it many times recently

It doesn't work for me. I used the thermal paste (even the gold one!) and turned the xbox on. It went from 3 red lights, to 2 red lights in a few minutes.
I then turned the console off, let it cool down and turned it on.... again Ring of death.
Did the same thing again but no result.
Any idea's?
cloudedmoon 6 months ago
To you people getting the two red lights just plug the fan in and place one side over the CPU heatsink and the other so it will not cool gpu

Hy,
My Xbox had the 3 light problem and I´ve been able to fix it but almost immediately, the E74 error show up. Could you help me? Could it be because I didn´t put new screws and the rubber? Also, thank you for the video, I know it works; my problem is different.

@jenner150 After the 2 minutes you have to let your 360 cool down with a regular house fan for 20 minutes

rednavaju 7 months ago
@rednavaju that is because you have to put more thermal pound to the chips... trust me, the thermal pound just squeeze to outside the chip, you have to disassembly and put more thermal compound, in both chips (cpu gpu) and then reassembly, see what happen!!!! good luck!
Abnesis 7 months ago
you forgot to mention that without any additinal cooling mods, the problem will re-occur regardless of better heat sinks. The xbox problem is due to not having a decent level of heat removal and air flow to the inside of the case. I will be doing a case mod video of how im going to provide better cooling for free to an xbox 360

some videos show the board being attached to the steel case by drilling the wholes larger? is this true I guess because the board would move around if it's not attached? especially if you try to plug and unplug stuff the pressure would displace the board. Please reply.
jazzpianist2011 7 months ago
@slingshot2427 the Machine Screws have to be Flathead other wise the pan head or the round head is too high for under the board and it will not sit flush in the case.

It wouldn't overheat on it own, put it in my oven and got it the heatsinks hot to the touch. Also I would only tight the nuts with just your fingers, it was too tight the first time I tried it until I did that.
ckycamp1986 7 months ago
this is not a good way of fixing i would rather take off xclamps and put flux under both GPU and CPU and on the ram chips put new thermal paste put heat sinks back on put 4 washers on each heat sink put xclamps back on then over heat it let cool then it should work i did this with 3 xboxs all are still work i can make a vid about it the fix shown in the vid is stupid i did this with same xboxs i fix with my metod and it worked for a week

@BigTonyWarrior it would likely help since the issues are caused by heat buildup. I also have to not my RRoD came after the kids starting playing Kinect games heavily.
