XBox 360 Elite with Three Red Lights

[Scuzza344]

Fix it buy wrapping it in a towel, run it for 10 mins, let it overheat, then switch off and on and it works.

[SlaShidVids]

haha my lil bro got the same 3 lights and we turn it off then turn it on and IT WORKED!!! :D

[Conair4GAppFire]

@goku0050 ur stupid if u put the Xbox in a vertical position, I'll put ring scratches on all of ur discs....it happened to my black ops

[daniwan3000]

@Conair4GAppFire Then you probably have something wrong with your Xbox, it's made to be upright.

[matt6517]

I can't believe I even considered buying this piece of crap. Thank god that I did the right thing and went for a PS3 :)

[AceFilmTrailers]

@matt6517: this only happens if you play it 24hrs straight for a week, iv had my xbox 3 years with no issues and theps3 can get the same issue but its the YLOD and it's rare

[DeeJaySiddall]

@TimothyPatrick04 exactly like that !

[VGMoney]

moral of the story: Stick to not-reading the Terms of Service

[MMDbZgT]

Yeah.. good ol' 3 leds. Guest starring in most of my nightmares.

My sister always crying because of the new louder overcooler in the Xbox.

She cried more because of the 1st xbox's melted motherboard, but she is she. :D

[bluskinniez]

off carpet thats kinda like putting a towl over it

[Jaylikesgreen]

I own one of the very first 360's they put it, got the red rings once, got it fixed on

Warranty now I've been playing on it for years with no problem.

[TheXBLPlayers]

REMEMBERED 2007!

[Tonyisable]

[1mrcartman]

[BAHAHAMUAHAHA]

umad

[angelwiki]

Never turn on your console using the controller ! it puts hella lot of stress on it !

[DeeJaySiddall]

@angelwiki i also turn it on with the console still working to be honest we shouldnt need to take these stupid precautions it was made to turn on with the controller :S just play the console if it dies it dies simple

[925shah]

People some time it's called taking care of your system meaning? buy a cooling fan no matter what .AS U SEE SHIT HAPPEND'S!! or do it the cheap way stilll work's by putting A FAN on the side where your 360 or ps3 VENT sucks the AIR IN

IMPORTANT: DO NOT PUT YOUR FAN ON THE OTHER VENT WHERE IT KICK'S OUT WARM AIR IF U DO THAT U WILL OVER HEAT THE SYSTEM FASTER!!!!

[HereinLiesDjinn]

@925shah you shouldnt have to buy a cooling fan to make a 250 euro piece of MICROSOFT equipment to work.

[925shah]

@HereinLiesDjinn ur not understanding what im saying ....... i said to be on the safe side cause shit happend's i got a 360 never got the red ring of death or on my ps3 cooling fan's help out alot plus some time's room temp gett's to 80 D too 95 D not safe for your system im just saying ! & if u have em on a carpet or near a wall....

[925shah]

@HereinLiesDjinn o and some of my friend have an xbox 360 elite and got the red ring of death .....

[hypernova1024]

Wires everywhere XD

[killogod10]

your stuff isnt plugged up

[BrieBrie1231]

Lol if its gonna be on carpet put it vertical smart one.

[kristoferharden]

its on carpet u should put it on wood or somithing 

[M1911DeViLDoG]

my elite has red ring too and I bought it off a friend if there is anyway i can fix it please reply!!!

[ChrisHCollier]

@ IdiotInaBox79 Thumbs up¡¡¡

[Nefault1st]

I got the RROD with my 360 elite in a vertical position ontop of a table.

[IdiotInaBox79]

THUMBS UP IF YOU DONT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE RING OF DEATH CAUSE U HAVE A PS3

[thecrabend1]

@IdiotInaBox79 yes and my ps3 broke down because it had the yellow light of death

[RickyJamesPivotVids]

And this is why every one needs to go back to n64's

[NarutoCrismon]

you must still have warnity if it's only for a week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KDubb33034]

maybe bcuz you have it on carpet, dipshit.

[mariothehedgehog589]

xbox= gets red ring

ps3=catches on fire

wii=throws controller cause some1 wasn't wearing the wrist strap

[meany1023]

@mariothehedgehog589 srry xbox doesnt get red ring anymore since the new xbox b4 slim they fixed it so o and DONT LAY UR XBOX ON SIDE WITH OLD ONES U STUPID FUCKING IDIOT IT WILL OVER HEAT UR XBOX ON OLD ONES AND GIVE U THE RED RINGS fuck people r dumb

[TheIrishViper]

It really is a piece of shit of a console saying that I'm on my 3rd PS3 since it was launched and my 360 still works as good as the day I purchased it,but I don't really use the 360 as the PS3 is just quieter and has more multimedia than the 360,next time I'll be using my 360 will be when Gears 3 is released.

[Milda47]

Overhated 

[ITzXToxICzz]

it probably didnt help that it was horizontal and on carpet

[juhku1995]

i bought elite when it came out and it is working perfectly.

[videocritic8888]

ATTENTION: thats not a Red ring of Death. A red ring of death has all four semi circles lit up in red. This is not a problem in the hardrive-which would be the red ring of death but in the power supply. The power supply is that black box thing that goes into your xbox. Thats the prob not the harddrive.

[winxpuser100]

@videocritic8888

3 Red Lights = General Hardware Failure (including HDD, power supply)

4 Red Lights = No A/V cable found

P.S. 4 Red Lights indication was removed by Microsoft in later models of Xbox 360 because some people confused this indication with RROD.

[pakadyno]

Sometimes hitting it works!

[KNGarver]

"And the new X-Box 360 Elite can not get RROD" Quote by most fans and Microsoft reps. Have fun getting ripped off every week. PS3's Blu-ray player cant overheat the whole damn system like that turd.

[WeaselPyro]

@KNGarver You don't understand... This was the 2007 Elite that no one said couldnt get rrod. Do your research before flaming.

[weliketotroll]

u no why george bush was such an asshole? cuz in is fr33 time he only cud play the Xbox 360, and he was radiated with its deadly shit! it made him an ass!

[YouDonwpwleepang]

kkkkkkkkkkk nao reconheceu o driver kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk se ferro kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[ThePinkMonster105]

thumbs up if the red ring of death looks awesome on the black one!

[bretthicksomega]

i feel bad that all these people commenting are too stupid to realize the xbox is obviously pulled out from your entertainment system(yeah like you would really sit it on the carpet) i see that this vid is old, and that failure is fixable, hope it all worked out like mine did ^_^ but really

everyone saying your dumb for it being on the carpet are failures in so many ways

V

[wittynameguy]

What happens to your save file after that happens? can u still save them? or transfer them to another xbox?

[TabooMasterWatcher]

@wittynameguy lost forever....

[narutofanman89]

PS3 sucks so fucking much. I have both systems and the connection on the PS3 is horrible. I use wired connection and have the fastest internet connection plan through my company. On the xbox the connection is great, no lag what so ever. When I try to watch a movie off the PSN network it always skips, lags, and fails to load.

[anakinskywalker212]

lol.... its on the floor under carpet a good chance of getting red rings

[TheLeketoy]

well ps3 is the best xD

[007zezima]

owned

[BoboVicus]

thats what she said

[siimozom999]

ahahhahahahah owned thats why ps3 is best !!!

[BoboVicus]

@siimozom999 Hey fanboy, xbox 360 S doesn't get red ring any more. "owned".

[bretthicksomega]

@BoboVicus no the xbox 360 S gets the red dot of death.....

[BoboVicus]

@bretthicksomega That just means your hard drive is dislodged. no big deal, just re insert the hard drive.

[bretthicksomega]

@BoboVicus lol thanks for the info bud, but i gots a classic pro 360, (the info is appreciated though)

[TheSilasZimmer]

dude seriously keep that fucking thing of the fucking carpet no wonder its hot.

[megapatapon3]

instead of the blue ring of death its the red ring of death

[888hens]

dude keep it of the carpet doa!!!!

[Kevin215ful]

That Just Prove that ps3 Is Better.

[TekN9ne83]

@Kevin215ful PS3's might be more reliable, but as I have noticed, a lot of people prefer Xbox because of the variety of games. Sony just isn't coming out with enough decent games to compete with Xbox. The PS3 does have the reliability factor plus the blu ray capabilities but just not enough games to spend $400 on just the console itself. 

[gilsassoon]

this is why the 360 sucks balls. wouldn't get this with a ps3

[ndogg360]

@gilsassoon

PS3's break too you know. Just not as much as the OLD 360. The new 360 Slim seems much more reliable.

[XboxLil]

i wonder why the xbox 360 got RROD. your carpet pushes the heat back into theair vents making it over heat in like 5 mins. what makes it even worse is that the AC adapter is on the floor and the carpet pushes the heat up the circuit. Use your brain.

[RyanTee96]

who lays an xbox down on a carpet?

[AK4724234]

i had the same problem. its nothing to worry about. but u should really turn the xbox on first not the controller. its something to do with the default setting of the power getting mixed up.

[taggermen]

you need to keep it in the area where it can ˝breathe˝ not on a carpet man

[biggiesmallzz123]

plug the power cord al the way in the consle

[shepdog14]

I would just like to point out that I am one of few people I know with a ps3 and while they all are trying to figure out why the fuck their xbox broke I'm here playing something cool like uncharted 2. Not to mention my ps3 of about 4 years old and still purring like a kitty.

[chaosnickel8]

Dude you guys  should have ps3 not to be rude but microsoft was build to make things break or get infected or something..like laptop they get virus easily and xbox.

[NinjaAssassin336]

yeah i know, i have a ps1 and a gamcube that work good as new, but i've had my wii for about 2 years now and it's started making these funny clicking sounds, a freaking long load time, and it lags really hard!

[billy007130]

@NinjaAssassin336 mabie.....to much memory?

"and it lags really hard" btw...thats what she said.

[AtaNate]

hey one good thing came outta the xbox elite it looks cooler with the three red rings(;

[BRiTDRAG2]

does anyone else notice that EVERY xbox gets the red ring of death in the HORIZONTAL position?

[foelde]

@BRiTDRAG2 And they fuck up discs when their verticle

GET IT MICROSOFT?! ME AND THIS BRITDRAG FOUND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS

XBOX IS MADE FOR ZERO GRAVITY ENVIROMENTS!!!!!!

[BRiTDRAG2]

@foelde that's only happened to me twice, but still, there is NO REASON IT SHOULD BE DESIGNED LIKE THIS!!!!!, why can't i have the slim one WHY?

[foelde]

@BRiTDRAG2 Well i should wait with the slim aas well it seems microsoft didnt learn a fucking thing slim trashes discs too and overheats as well

[BRiTDRAG2]

@foelde but at least it lasts longer, and only kills discs when you move it, BTW why would even move the console when there's a disc in it anyway?

[foelde]

@BRiTDRAG2 Amen brother your right XD

[BRiTDRAG2]

@foelde (: 

[madmax2069]

@BRiTDRAG2 they can get it in both positions.

he had it in that confined space and it cooked itself to death.

[BRiTDRAG2]

@madmax2069 you wouldn't leave your kid in a room with no space to breath so why treat your xbox any different?

[madmax2069]

@BRiTDRAG2 i think you replied to the wrong person.

[fatpickel]

@BRiTDRAG2 mines horizontal and mine hasnt got the red ring of death and i have had it for 2 years

[BRiTDRAG2]

@fatpickel 0_0 WHAT DID I DO WRONG?????

[fatpickel]

@BRiTDRAG2 ur xbox is on the carpet

[BRiTDRAG2]

@fatpickel i don't have a carpet

[AK4724234]

@BRiTDRAG2 i will tell u y bcoz when i got the red ring of death mine was standing upstrate on a table

[WastedYears1991]

@AK4724234 mines currently flat on the table

[WastedYears1991]

@BRiTDRAG2 they have them in the flat position cos if its upright and there's a disc inside and it gets knocked even slightly it shreds the disc -.-

[frogsby1]

@BRiTDRAG2 its because the air cant come out horizontaly

[wesley2348]

@frogsby1: that doesnt matter my 360 is horizontal on a glass shelf and has been for 2years and its working , his is on the carpet so it sucks up shit and clogs the fan.

[Jross8880]

@BRiTDRAG2 I had mine in the other position and it got red ring but then i moved it horizontal it worked fine for like 3 weeks lol

[BRiTDRAG2]

@Jross8880 well maybe your Xbox fails at life, no offense.

[Jross8880]

@BRiTDRAG2 my xbox i used it maybe 2 years but everything dies

[iReacTionsZ]

Those lights give me the creeps...

[KinectGenerator]

Lmao.

Check my video for another 6 methods including this one with a downloadable manual for the E68, E70 and E74 errors!

youtube.com/watch?v=LDaTYZpe5Y­w

[spyguy383]

same thing happened to my old 360..i gave it to my friend cuz i was tired of looking at it lol

[thesaints5551]

xboxs are way beter and xbox 360s are good you just have to know how to repair it and not be lazy retards :P

[mtlhd803]

Jesus Christ,how much shit do you have hooked up!?

[derallter]

Don't buy consoles at all, buy a good quality PC instead and pirate all the games you want. Sure sure, the PC costs a lot more than the Consoles. But then again, check the price of the games. While a game for the 360/PS3 may cost 60$ it's down at 30 for the PC.

Now you do the math.

[XS7SXSNIPER]

if your gonna buy a console and we all know if your watching youtube videos you have internet so your gonna play online so buy a xbox not a ps3 your so limited online unless your only going to play single player buy ps3 but if you just don't give a flying fuck buy the wii

[flabergas2da9]

Nice job keeping your 360 on carpet. worst thing you can do for it

[kevster3000]

youre fucked... rip xbox

[Raylet2]

You seriously have your xbox on a carpet? I kno another guy mentioned this but... wow.. Thats like driving a BMW into a wall and saying "cant believe my 80,000 dollar car got smashed :("

[pietrodiseriate]

buy a ps3

[yalincan10]

Dude Plz you xbox 360 is flat u blocking the air lol

[kryptondj]

yup same shit xbox suck donkey balls

bastards worry about quantity instead of quality

u greedy fucks

[Mw2Jo]

Made in China

[habbtrillion]

To the comment which said ps3s have better games than the 360, halo will never be on the ps3, more games will never be on the ps3, but always on the best console which is the 360

[tomanatorness]

@habbtrillion yeah right! Halo is not that good, MW2 is better! BFBC2 is better! UNCHARTED 2 is better, story mode and multiplayer! there is no such thing as the best console! only games! RETARD!

[27131005864956]

your xbox is on a carpet your the dummest person ever cuz the xbox is a vacuum if its on a carpet

[derallter]

@27131005864956

..wait, so you're saying it can't stand wherever I'd like to put it? Bullshit console.

[seansdoesntdoweed]

@derallter any console will over heat if its on carpet...

[TekN9ne83]

@27131005864956 lol i understand why you're calling him dumb, but seriously you are dumb for spelling "dumbest" incorrectly. its not dummest its dumbest.

[Keidakennedy]

@27131005864956 Have you even read the description?

"I used it inside the entertainment rack that you can clearly see in the background and moved it out to diagnose the problem after it broke."

[bretthicksomega]

@27131005864956 idiot



[adshield]

@27131005864956 howz it a vacuum?

[linkinparkguitarist1]

I rented a xbox 360 and it got the red ring of death i thought i was gona be in shit

but all it was that it had been plugged out a bit

[chicobubba123]

thats happing to me right now i have an elite too

[DevilDanceX]

PS3's don't have this problem

[nuri590]

@DevilDanceX your dump it has something called yellow light i will know coz i fix and play all consoles butch

[KidNextDoorInc]

@DevilDanceX yes it does it jus that it yellow light

[illmatic826]

I really think Microsoft fixed these things to do this just so people can keep spending hard earned money on this shit its not like xbox 360's are exactly cheap they will cost about $324.75 total plus whatever games you buy AND you have to spend even more money if they fuck up so unless you just love to spend money just get a ps3 slim that wont mess up on you.

[cutecat13095gmail]

@illmatic826 or a ps3 regular. the piano black finish

[Bones139]

exactly what i have bud just bought new nhl today, its stuck in my xbox with 3 red ring LOL what a joke have to buy my 3rd xbox

[TracyOlszowka]

Don't wait 6 weeks for Sony to "fix" your PS3 and lose hundreds of dollars...fix it yourself! - youtube.com/watch?v=W6IqzZV3c0­k

[raxater]

Carpet= 2nd xbox's worst ennemy after ps3 ^^

[rio2k99]

if u stare at the think it will brake all you gotta do is un plug it

[donkazoid]

U DUMSHITS DONT REALIZE THAT THE BO HAS 2 BREATH AND IT CANT GET ANY AIR WHEN ITS ON CARPET. WOOD OR MARBIL WOULD BE GREAT LIKE MINE

[Hawky187]

I put mine on a book so it could ''breathe'' and i had a rrod but i repaired it by simply unplugging the power cable and then put it back ! My xbox 360 is like fucking Iron Man

[twistah100]

@Hawky187 lol thats exactly what i did and it started working again just by unplugging it xD

[riseagainstiskiller]

Man ive put 300 dollars in games and the Peice of $h!*t breaks!!!

[sa140]

i cant believe i had my ps3 for 4 years not 1 problem occured but my xbox had E-74 since first day what a shame microsoft its ranked #1 on alexa.com i think their wrong.

[lasseban]

just like my elite..

[guitarpro48]

epic lolage see i have a ps3 and i dont deal with that but my bro has got an xbox 360 and he is on his third one

[antshaful]

its your fault if you place your xbox on a carpet

[oOoSl4v3oOo]

Dude u have it on ur carpet?lol

It will get to Warm and then ------>>> RROD

[Titan232065]

lol you guys are just mad that microsoft is the company with more money and a better online service

[Evildude221]

only thing thats probably just as bad ... or slightly less is when u even move the xbox a inch and it leaves a ring on the disk =/

[TheSquosh100]

your not suppose to put it on the carpet you have to read the manual if you care about your xbox

[ThreeDaysOfDan]

@TheSquosh100 he said he left it there after it broke, i hate it when ppl blame teh person cuz it broke, , no it just broke cuz its engenired by super smart monkeys

[mlyon69]

thats not red thats orange

[RibenaFanta]

the newer 360's and the slim is 90% protected from rrod, ps3 fanboys or sad bas- (i wont say it :) ) the old 360s were total shit, the new ones are amazing. ps3s are equal to the OLD xbox 360s

[cesaaar012]

@RibenaFanta slim 360 still get the RROD so its like risky. but then both ps3 and xbox have that problem..

[bamfan2044]

@cesaaar012 its cant get the RROD their is no red LED's on the RF module if anything it shows u a message saying what error they have

[ThreeDaysOfDan]

@bamfan2044 it gets a fucking red dot i know cuz i got it!!!!! right in teh middle of teh fucking conclaved f'k power button!

[bamfan2044]

@ThreeDaysOfDan calm down child i know more then you will ever know it cannot repeat cannot get red light unless you have modded the RF module

[bamfan2044]

@RibenaFanta lol true the new 360 outshines the ps3 but they need blu-ray

[omgsean1]

same as mine because i was play armored core for anwser but i reset it before it still black screen i not have idea to fix 3 rrod

[drpepper5001]

my xbox survived for 2 years and still running and i play it everyday

[linkkpzz234]

omg!! how do i get red lights on my xbox! thats soo cool!

[buzz12241]

first of all its on the floor and i bet u played it pretty long aday so that's why body

[takaiwhiteguy]

This isn't to bash 360s but I put my PS3 on the carpet in our living room and nothing has happened. Microsoft needs to man up in making their drivers much more stable.

[MylesIzSexy]

Dude u played with it on a carpet

[Mschorsch2]

its easy to repair!!!!!

[LoadingWorks]

@Mschorsch2 how??

[SableOrpheon]

Microsoft... You make the funnest pieces of shit ever, really, i have an old nes that has survived 25 YEARS!!!! And my XBox 360 can't survive 25 DAYS without breaking, that just gets me angry...

[31willie31]

@SableOrpheon lmfao

[MrHoihoihoi1]

@SableOrpheon i have an elite which i have for about 1 year and 3 months

and everything is fine

so i guess it's sometimes it happens and sometime it doesn't

[dontreadmyusername0]

@SableOrpheon Well fucktard if you open up the NES it really dosen't do that much compared to the next generation of consoles. The consoles we have now run alot quicker and have to process alot more shit than the fucking NES.

[SableOrpheon]

@dontreadmyusername0 ....looks like we've got a fanboy.... CALM DOWN!! Like seriously.... grow up, it's my opinion, and you don't understand the point of my comment do you? I'm saying that the NES was built way better than the xbox 360, like most things were built back then. It's not a matter of what had better hardware, it's a matter of which one is more playable. So please, stop the swearing, we're not in kindergarten, and think before you comment...

[dontreadmyusername0]

@SableOrpheon Wow you're an idiot so im a fanboy for stating a fact? Fucking idiot.

[SableOrpheon]

@dontreadmyusername0 I told you to grow up, are you six and trying to impress all your little friends by swearing? Also am I a "F***king Idiot" for stating my opinion?

Anyways, you obviously weren't able to read this comment properly or else you would of understood this wasn't a hardware battle, it's a battle of quality. Now, I hate starting fights on videos, so next time PM me...

[xbox7202012]

@SableOrpheon wen ur done playing it unplug it till play it again. simple
