This has become a huge problem over the last few months. More and more people are following those crazy repairs they see on YouTube. We want to warn you that You Could Permanently Damage Your Xbox 360 by following their advice. One of the most popular methods they use is the "Towel Trick"
They advise you to wrap a towel around your Xbox 360, and supposedly it will fix your "Three Red Lights". What a joke. By wrapping a towel around your console makes things only worse. Why in the world would you wrap a towel around a console that needs to cool down? The towel only makes it hotter!!! If you use the towel trick repeatedly you could really damage your Xbox 360 beyond repair.
So please don't try those crazy repair methods you see on YouTube. Most of the people uploading those videos have no clue on how to properly fix the 360 red ring of death.

The "Xbox 360 Red Light Fix" Guide Was Our Top Choice
( We Recommend This Guide Over All The Others)
Description: This guide was by far the best repair guide. What made this guide stand out from the others was the video quality. The video's are crystal clear, and the instructions are very easy to follow. There customer service is also excellent. Using this guide, you should fix your Xbox 360 in under 2 hours.
The "Three Red Light Fix" Guide Was Our 2nd Pick
Description: The "Three Red Light Fix" Guide came in second. The difference between this guide, and our top pick is the video quality. Since the video quality is not excellent, it makes it a little bit more difficult to follow the instructions. That's the reason we gave this guide a score of 8.7 out of 10. Don't get us wrong this guide is also solid, but the video quality is not as crystal clear as the one above.
The "Xbox 360 Repair" Guide Was Our 3rd PickDescription: Decent quality, but we would definitely recommend the 2 repair guides above over this one.
What Do The Three Flashing Red Lights Mean?
There seems to be tons of confusion about what each light inside the red ring of death actually means. So here is a quick overview of what each light means:
1. My First Section Is not Flashing But All The Others are.
If your first section is not red, but all the other sections are than try to unplug all the cables and plug them in again.
2. If Two Lights Are Flashing.
This usually means it's an overheating problem. Turn your system off and give it a 30 min break. If it still doesn't work you might want to try using the repair guides we have reviewed.
3. Three Red Flashing Lights.
This is also know as the "Red Ring Of Death" . This means that you probably have major hardware failure. You should defiantly use a repair guide to fix this problem.
4. If All Four Lights Are Flashing.
Don't worry about 4 flashing lights. Chances are your AV Cable is not plugged in.
That was a quick overview of what each light means. That should clear up any questions you might of had about the Flashing Lights.
