Simple Fix May Your Fix Your Xbox 360 3 Red Lights Problem
Here’s something you can try if you’ve experienced the xbox 360 3 red lights problem. Turn your xbox on, and wrap it up tight in the first towel. Wrap the other two towels around your xbox in the same fashion and let it sit for 20 - 25 minutes. Before you start worrying about it overheating, that’s the point. The idea is to reset the microchip inside your xbox, at which point you will be able to play your favorite games again.
After the 20 - 25 minutes have passed, go back to your xbox, unwrap it, turn it off, and let it sit in a cool room for another 15 minutes. If you have an air conditioner, turn it on to speed up the process.
After 15 minutes, come back to your xbox making sure it’s nice and cool. Plug all the cords back in and return it to its usual resting place. Now hit the power button and start praying. If all has gone as planned, you’ll get the green light and you’ll be playing games in no time.
Please take note that this is only a temporary fix. It will last for 4 - 5 days, at which point it might go back to its three red lights problem. So if and when the problem occurs again, just repeat the process and you may buy yourself an extra 4 or 5 days playing time.
Using these steps you now know how to fix three red lights on xbox 360.
