Is this not the usual RROD?

Posted by admin On September - 5 - 2010

I was gone for a week on vacation and when I came back my xbox had 3 red rings..it was working fine before I left. Anyway..when I turn it on it doesn’t come up on the TV or anything that I should go to xbox.com/support, which it did last time I had RROD. It does not start up at all, as soon as I press power, 3 rings..
The power supply light also stays orange when I try to turn it on..microsoft says that it should still go green even when it has 3 red rings.
HELP!

The RROD fault is caused by various different faults occurring on the motherboard and Xbox 360 system. My first RROD sounds very much like your current one and I’m afraid it had to go back to Microsoft for a repair. On the upside at least Microsoft still aren’t charging for RROD faults.

check your cables are plugged into the back of the console properly .. i remember mine being loose and the RROD appearing .. was shocked but glad to find out it was just a loose cable

Hope this helps

the RRoD can sometimes be caused just by loose cables. Check everything’s plugged in properly at the back before you go calling Microsoft.
