If you have a problem with the original Xbox 360’s I recommend getting the slim version or the E version instead of buying these older models over and over again.
@@XboxConnoisseur994falcon fixed it to some extent but the jaspers were much better Also the console straight up made a sound that sounded like the motherboard shorted out
I had it on my Xbox. To fix it do these things, 1. That wine it makes on start up is the hdd trying to connect. So remove it 2. Remove the disc and 3. Possibly change power supply as the caps may not be getting enough power
@@XboxConnoisseur994he keeps using the swab ALL the time or tries to find a place that fixes the red light l already had 2 Xbox 360s so l know what it's like
Yeah, honestly if I were him, I’d just get either a Jasper unit, Slim unit, or E unit as a replacement. But as for fixability, his probably needs a new GPU.
HDD issue or RAM issues, best solution is to remove the motherboard clean everything with soap and water and let it dry completely then put some soldering paste around the CPU, GPU, North Bridge and memory chip, if you have an cooking oven put ot at 150C° our 180C° and let it cook for 20min or 30min, then turn it of let it cool completely, wash it again woth water and soap and you're good 👍 assemble the comsole again.
@@XboxConnoisseur994 note that you musk let it dry completely!! I turned my Xbox 360 on and the video where all messed up, turns out it hasn't dried completely, so I have an air fryer big enough to fit the motherboard so what I did was just place it inside at 70 Celsius for 30min the hot air dries everything out.
Nooo... this is bullshit, don't do it. That won't do ANYTHING. So stupid. Nothing will even melt until 217C it's lead free. Only way to fix it forever is to replace the GPU, else it will just die again soon enough. Don't listen to this stupid advice.
@@XboxConnoisseur994I revived my old GTX 680 this way. The memory chip connection went bad and the card had crazy artifacts. Whatever you do just don’t do it in your home oven. Find another one somewhere and never cook food in it again. The fumes from it are super nasty.
Dude I’ve had a zephyr that was made September 2007 and I actually bought original it had a red ring service in 2009 and well it’s newer been more reliable thinking of getting a slim though just in case
@XboxConnoisseur994 Thank you. Yeah they were better but still not bulletproof. Sorry for your loss. Personally i have run jaspers to this day with no issues. Granted i upgraded the heatsinks to those which you would find in a zephyr. Speaking of which the Elite shell that i put on my jasper RGH as well as the heatsinks actually came from a zephyr motherboard Elite.
@@halo3odst it’s all good, I bought this one as a red ringed console, got it working temporarily, and it led to this video. I also have a white Jasper that works phenomenally.
@XboxConnoisseur994 What for? The only times i ever knowingly buy a red ringed system is if i am near certain that it is on the blades dash. Which i have been correct in guessing 3/3 times so far.
They don’t make the Xbox 360 consoles, but my personal console has been an Xbox 360 S for the last 7 years. It’s been ultra reliable and heavily used. I upgraded to an Xbox 360 E, but I’m keeping the S as a backup. As for this console, I’m going to try cleaning the motherboard, using soldering paste and baking it, then cleaning it again.
I’m going to get a friend Xbox 360 Elite to see if it works cuz him don’t have an HDMI cable and don’t have a controller and I have both so I think will be all right
There was only one error, 0110. So essentially what that means is either the RAM chip is faulty (or cracked) or there’s a bridged solder joint on the RAM chip. It’s not technically worth fixing, but I plan to fix it to kind of get my foot in the door with these kinds of repairs.
@@XboxConnoisseur994 my friend had 360 too and he got gpu solider points broken but i dont know how but after 3 rings the console was booting to the dashboard and even could play some games until the gpu got hot
@TheMahayanist The solder is not what typically causes the RROD. The vast majority of consoles have faulty GPUs themselves, and the solution is actually to replace the entire chip with a fixed chip that has a high tg underfill as opposed to the low tg that early chips used.
Yeah, after June of 2008, the primary concern was seeing if any of the capacitors would blow up, depending on which ones were used. The green capacitors are the worst.
@@XboxConnoisseur994 i have Falcon blades 2008 june 17, its pretty reliable. I play 100% missions on gta 4. Its like 60h of playing this game. I love this console, i buy old tv for this console to bring old memories.
It’s the GPU, I actually did that trick and the trick failed. So I blocked the fans with the Q-tips, I actually filmed this video two days after doing that trick.
@@XboxConnoisseur994 No, this only expands the solder balls because of the heat so that they make a temporary connection. They will keep doing this because it’s a flawed gpu model or the fixed gpu is dying
@@XboxConnoisseur994 Interesting, that's when Jaspers started being produced, even weirder is the fact that died. Late Falcons past May 2008 usually don't die Edit: Saw another one of your vids where the Falcon had an MFR date of 2008-03-10 which makes more sense with the faulty GPU
3 red rings with a bad hard drive?? I've never seen that usually it would have 1 red ring with e68 I have multiple fat 360's and a few slims the only time I would get 3 red ring is if it was the nand gpu or leaking caps I think you're Xbox might have gpu problems and a bad hard drive that's the only way I think it would get 3 red rings Because a 360 wouldn't give you 3 red lights if it was a hard drive problem only it would give you e68 Edit: I rewatch the video and I found out it wasn't the hard drive that made the sound it was the Xbox usually when 360 die they make a noise while freezing It's a gpu or nand problem
@@FlakerGamer oh lol, but on a serious note, I agree. I ended up moving houses and the TV I have now is one of those older Sharp branded flat screen TVs.

Its probably power supply (which is external obviously) or hard drive because I heard the UGLIEST hard drive click

My Xbox 360 elite got the red ring about two years ago. I had it for about 15 years or so.
This indicate that a more recent person failed to try to take it somewhere to fix it,mine already had this too
Yeah, turns out it’s the GPU that’s completely toast. I did do the Q-tip trick and it worked temporarily for a few hours and went back to red ringing.

Modded already? If not I suggest getting it done, might be able to reflow some of those points too.
Wow! A 360 elite (most of them had Jasper motherboards) is very rare to get red ring
Early Elites had zephyr boards and the majority i have seen used falcon boards.
