If it's still in warranty send it back, if not warranty voided for example then have a look at this guide

and do some searching.

my 360 has the three ring error and i wanted to know if i could fix it can any1 help me please help me


yes please find out the error code and let us know.

it is likely it needs an x-clamp replacement.

regardless of what you read on these forums, heatguns and towel tricks are not good methods of fixing the problem.
