Discover How To Use an XBOX 360 Repair Manual

By Pete Mason

Just what do you do when the time comes, and your Xbox 360 dies? When you see those three red lights, what are your options?

The first thing to remember is not to panic.

Up until now, seeing those three red lights has been a sign that the console is dead for good. That's because all the fixes for this general hardware failure were ineffective or costly.

After all, sending the console back to Microsoft for repairs might cost a hundred forty dollars or more, plus it takes as long as eight weeks to get your console back to you. Most people don't want to pay that much or wait that long, even if they're staring at those red lights.

Thinking about cracking open your Xbox 360's case on your own? There are a number of fixes you can supposedly do yourself, but you'll need to have a lot of skill and know what you're doing with a soldering iron. It's important to remember that your console is a delicate machine, not a backyard project.

Then there are the mythical fixes and urban legends - the kind that border on magical thinking. Will wrapping the console in a towel rid you of those pesky red lights? How about tilting it at a forty-five degree angle and storing its power adapter in a vertical position?

If these methods sound silly, it's because they are. You can try them, but you'll lose some time and you'll still be stuck with a console that doesn't work and those three red lights.

The good news is that you can relax, because there are other fixes you can do on your own. They're easy and may be the secret you've been looking for. Developed by tech professionals, they're the answer to your Xbox 360 problems.

These people have run into hundreds of cases of Xbox 360s with the red lights of death, and they've been able to use these simple solutions every time. These consoles were up and running in a little less than two hours.

Where can you find these repair secrets? Check out Xbox repair guides, available online. You can find guides made by the experts to help Xbox gamers get their machines back up and running. Generally, these guides include a full instruction manual, as well as videos to show you just what you need to do.

Plus, unlike methods which require a soldering iron, you can try these techniques, and if they don't work, you can still send your machine to Microsoft. Of course, most of the time, you won't need to - you can fix your console in your own home, saving time and money, too.

Of course, the best Xbox repair sites will offer a money back guarantee. That way, you'll know you won't lose money if the repair site doesn't help you fix the problem.
