My xbox took a crap

[gumby240]

It's got three blinking red lights, does anyone know the fix for this ? I really don't want to send it in for repair.

[lanning]

thats all you can do or throw it away

[gumby240]

Well I have read that there is a fix for it you can do at home, just wanting to know if anyone knows about it

[lanning]

damn i havent heard about that, good luck tho

[HyPer50]

There are "fixes" on youtube, but they will most likely void your warranty... I'd just send it in to Microsoft for a free repair.

[nreggie454]

You can either do the towel trick and potentially void your warranty for a few more hours of gameplay or suck it up and send it in.

[antiv6]

either send it in or pay someone on craigslist 40 bucks to fix it

For about $300 bucks you can get it "fixed".. just go to Best Buy and get a PS3... LOL

[cpearson]

I fixed mine for $5. Just needed two 'X' clamps on the bottom of the motherboard to let air go through. About a 30 minute job...been running like a champ for over a year now. Good luck!

That sux, i sent mine in for repair when that happened and they sent me a brand new one with an extra hard drive on it, i traded the HD for a new game at gamestop and my Xbox worked again, that was three years ago and its still going strong...

I knew you looked familar, I was in there the other day and I thought I know him from somewhere, duh Travis & lyns haha. Ok I guess I will have to drive Gumby up there when I bring it.

[JITB]

SEND IT TO MICROSOFT! if your lucky you will get a new one back... they have gotten quick about getting them back. Ive heard of them coming back in a week before. but thats if its still under warranty

[Sol-Badguy]

If it's less than THREE years old, just send it in. Mine only took a week and a half to get back. They send you a 1 month LIVE card back with it too.

I turned around and sold mine that night and finally bought a PS3. :D

[gumby240]

Well it's older then 3 years so I am going to take it in to Elitetechs & have them fix it.

[greengolfbal]

Those damn blinking lights!!! I've had it happen to me twice already. So, I decided to get an elite and give my latest new/repaired one to jeff. Sorry I missed your call yesterday. I was out working in John's Creek till 7 last night.
