Why Do All Xbox 360's Seem To Have A Red Light Error? How To Fix It.

Ever since the Xbox 360 was released there had been some issues with a Red Light error. Most common is the Xbox 360 Red Light Error. Pretty scary to know your Xbox 360 could fall victim to it at about any moment. I know from personal experience because my Xbox 360 had the 3 Red Light Error at about 6 months of owning it. And if you dont have a warranty on it then your going to have to say goodbye to your Xbox 360 for about 6 weeks for Microsoft to determine the problem and how to fix it.




The reason behind the major problem is because the Xbox 360's design makes it hard to let air flow throughout the system to be cooled properly. At least for a majority of the errors that occur. Because of the dimensions are restricted in size it is difficult to let air get through the system. Most Xbox 360's will experience this down the road.

A few tips, keep your Xbox 360 in a well ventilated area, try not to set it up against the wall or the tv. Also, do not run your Xbox 360 idle for long periods of time. Keep it clean and dust it off once in awhile.

The Xbox 360 is a good console to have but the problem is unbearable. Microsoft has tried to deal with the Xbox 360 Red Light error problem for sometime. But, keeping customers waiting for 6 weeks to get their "fixed console" back is a hassle. Microsoft also offers a 3 year warranty on earlier models because the problem was so common for launch systems.

The market offers a variety of manuals and repairs kits. They may be a solution to most problems and save a consumer less headache and time. The solutions are available on the net.
