Flashing red light is problem with eeprom.


Fixes:

If you have never de-soldered your eeprom chip then your eeprom has somehow become corrupt.
Use an eeprom reader/writer to rewrite your eeprom to the chip.

If you have, in the past or recently, de-soldered and re-soldered your eeprom chip then the problem is your soldering.
Check it or re-solder entirely.

Side note: DO not desolder your eeprom. It is not a smart idea. Building a reader is safer.

Hi all

I was needing some help in regards to a v1.3 xbox. when i turn the machine on the light on the fromt flashes red untill i turn the machine off. now i have just installed the audio hack and was testing it out and semmed to have it all working until now. the thing is i have read on a forum that the flashing red light has something to do with the TSOP so i thought the best place to ask was here. so if someone could help that would be great as i cant use the machine anymore. I though maybe the TSOP had gotten screwed up somehow and if i flashed it then it might work again. what do u all think??

depends do you see ANYTHING on the screen ?

if no then it could be your tsop
if yes or if it's your xbox needs servicing it's software on your hard drive.
