Xbox 360 3 Red Lights Fix And Xbox Repair Bonus

I have to say that I'm not even that technically knowledgeable and I fixed my first Xbox 360 in about 35 minutes (not bad for a newbie!.

Visit the Xbox 360 Red Light Fix website today and get a copy of the ultimate Xbox 360 repair guide before your Xbox dies for good!

Here are a few things that I was unsure about:
* The first thing I didn't like was it would take 2 hours for me to sit down and repair my game system on my own; and
* I was hesitant about some of the steps inside the guide.

After thinking about the money and time it would take to get Microsoft to repair it, I figured why not! Bring on the guide!

Just follow some simple steps like these and you'll have your Xbox 360 working again in no-time:
* Download the Xbox 360 Repair Pack;
* Get access to the Members area;
* Use the quick step tools and info pack; and last but not least
* Start playing your Xbox 360 again

Why do Xbox 360 problems happen? That's a question that's been asked by millions of people, so you are not alone!

Microsoft extended their warranty for three years beyond the purchase date. However, expect to wait 4-6 weeks if you do decide to ship it off. If you can follow simple instructions then you can be playing your Xbox 360 in well under 1 hour!. Heck, there is a step-by-step video that shows you exactly what to do.

And then there are the multitudes of YouTube videos claiming to have found the miracle cure. The three that I am going to review are what appear to be the most popular - and sometimes most ridiculous:
* The Towel Trick - It goes something like this: You take the hard drive off, wrap the entire unit in a towel to prevent the excess heat from escaping, turn the console on for about 15 minutes to cook (some instructions recommend 1 hour!), shut it down, unplug it for an hour, plug it back in and like magic it works. But why? I haven't heard a decent explanation yet. Here is one of the explanations:
* The unit gets so hot that it melts the solder that was the cause the red lights in the first place.
Here are a couple of potential hazards as pointed out in the same instructions:
* Could potentially damage other parts of the Xbox; and
* The unit could catch on fire it gets so hot.
I have to say I am going to rate this as the 2nd most ridiculous fix of the three in consideration. Recommendation: Do not use this fix!
* The Ice Bath - I don't even want to explain how to do this. Essentially, a rubbermaid tub is filled with ice water, some vinegar is added, the Xbox 360 is unplugged and submerged in the water/vinegar mixture. After so many minutes the console is removed, drained of water and immediately plugged back in. Need I say more. I actually heard of a kid who attempted this and was severely shocked. This fix is the most ridiculous fix of the three in consideration. Recommendation: Do not even think about using this fix if you value your life!
* X-Clamp Fix - This is the only legitimate fix I have found thus far. It is as permanent as it gets. Do not use it however if your Xbox 360 is still under warranty. Send the console back to Microsoft and let them honor the warranty. However, if the seal is broken and/or it isn't under warranty this fix is your best bet. This is the fix in a nutshell; you open up the console, remove the x-clamps, clean up the old thermal paste, put new thermal paste on, replace the x-clamps with screws and washers, reassemble the unit, overheat, let it cool down and it works approximately 90% of the time. Recommendation: Use this fix.

Basically, this red ring of death error has been a major problem with XBOX 360 devices.
