Title: Xbox360 3 Lights Error!
Post by: Chancer on July 24, 2007, 09:22:00 AM

Confirm the error code and send it back for repair under the new 3year warranty if it meets the criteria.
If you have modded or opened it you can't do that however.

REMOVE the intercooler....!!

That thing is junk and causes way more problems then it solves.

yeh but you havn't told us the error code d1ck head.

you'd think having a moderator ask you twice for the error code, it might be a good idea, even maybee just polite to provide what he was asking.

Did you remove the intercooler???


To retreive your secondary code:

Hold the sync button on the xbox as you turn it on.  

The middle green light will blink.

Every time you press the sync button the red lights will flash.

Count the flashes and report back.

i.e. (error code 0102)

Press sync button:  nothing happens = 0
Press sync button: 1 flash = 1
Press sync button" nothing happens = 0
Press sync button: 2 flashes = 2

It will then repeat.

Had you read what was in the first of the 2 links I supplied we would already have the information needed. It explains all about the error codes.

Havok has explained in clear black and white to you how to obtain your error code. Have you even tried? You can't keep saying you have no audio and video and 3 red lights, that doesn't help anyone with attempting to solve your problem and it doesn't help you either. Any number of things could have caused this to happen. You must get your error code otherwise you may as well stop asking for help.

Are you looking at the flashes of the centre power symbol inside the ring of light?

I'm not entirely sure because I've never had this problem with my 360, but it sounds like you may have 0102 going on what Havok has outlined up the page. Xclamp replacement would help probably yes.
