Can someone please answer! When I turn on my xbox (which has the three red rings) the fans don't start spinning or anything. Also when I turn it on, the power brick light just stays orange. So what can I do cuz I don't think this solution will fix my problem.
It works, my xbox got red ring earlier this year and i found this fix on another guys channel and tried it and it worked. I thought I had to buy a new xbox, but at least I know theres a way to temporary fix it. SAVED ME MONEY!!!!!
i did exactly what you did and it went back to three red rings. it delays for about 45 seconds then the rings pop up again. Am i doing something wrong?
B G A and solder of the Xbox mobo on the whole is the troublespot, the cracks in solder can't be suitably addressed with this method. Timing it is probably the best bet, if you were to go this route, don't over-do time with heat buildup, it can be terminal!
thank you so much i just brought home halo reach and i started a level and it got the red ring of death i was pissed as fuck but you helped your awsome (subscribed) :D
Okay ifk what my problem is wiyh my 3 red ring but when i turn it on it just goes straight to 3 ring and the fans or anything doesnt even turn on and my disc tray wont even open eiher..someone please help
@coolestvideos7777 Thats an overheating messege dumbass. Automatically shows up after your xbox overheats so get your facts straight before you start calling this guy out.
The issue with this is that it may work as a quick fix but at the same time by overheating your xbox, you are permanently damaging many necessary components destroying it. The only real way of fixing it yourself is by replacing the thermal compound and some of the internal screws. I recently bought a kit for around $10 off of amazon.
This works. Did it once to temp fix an E74. Worked afterwards but couldn't use it anymore after that since I had to send it in the next morning. Overheating isn't the smartest thing to do in this situation unless you're still covered by a warranty, in which case it won't matter if you damage your console anymore by doing so because Microsoft will fix it/ send you a refurb. All in all a good method for a quick, temporary fix for E74 or RROD.
I only have 1 red ring of death and I use QTIP's instead of pipe cleaner it stops the fans but my xbox doesn't get hot it gets warm then it turns off while the 1 light becomes 2 then my power cord goes from green to orange...
mine worked mines just an extra my mom took away my main one and now i have to use this it worked though thanks mate...(ijust needed to say mate even though im american lol it makes me seem fancy :))
@RoxyChene16 About a week for me. And then you'll have to do it again. There's a permanent fix that requires you to open your xbox (void warranty), and a bunch of other steps including removing and applying new Thermal Compound. Would you guys want a vid on that?
@EffectronFilms It only worked for me about a day, then my Xbox got the RROD again, and I did it again but, it only worked for like 10 minutes. Help, what should I do?
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG It works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 I finally got mine to work!!!! I THOUGHT IT NEVER WOULD?!!!! Dude, I seriously can not thank you enough!!! I might just be getting lucky though....:p I subscribd. :)
@JanJan17xD Is this a hypothetical question or did this happen? Because all you're doing is holding it from moving. You aren't actually jamming them. So as soon as you pull out the pipe cleaner it should automatically start again. If it doesn't, pull the plug and turn it back on again.
it is better to leave ur x box lying down because i got 2 before it and the one lying down didnt break and the one standing up broke within 3 months

@EffectronFilms You can burn out the motors on the fans by holding them from moving, best bet is unplug them from your motherboard, same result
