Taking your Xbox 360 console to a local "technician" is another common mistake. Be careful as they will take advantage of your system. They will be sneaky enough by taking parts of the Xbox's motherboard and replacing it with others.
In other words, by taking the Xbox console to someone who you don't know will significantly raise the chances of them taking advantage of your console and they will most likely charge you $80 and up for it.
How did these "technicians" learn to fix an Xbox 360 console and charge big bucks for it?
Like any of us would do, we look on the internet for a solution, a guide to help us solve that problem. YEP These technicians picked up a"guide" to fixing anything that solves the Xbox 360.
The red ring of death the E74 error and the freeze ups are all available in a solution guide that any of us can pick up in the internet now and days.
Hey there, I know how it feels to be a victim of the Xbox 360 red ring of death. That is probably one of the worst things that an owner of the Xbox console can go through.
There are a lot of reasons in which this occurs. You might have heard about that e74 error message that a lot of gamers are getting lately as well.
Now the question is:
Can It Be Fixed Permanently Within 2 Hours From Now? Yes it can! That is the good news my friend. There are a variety of fixes that range from 30 minutes to 2 hours and even up to 3-4 weeks to get your console back to working. But our main concern is to have our console back ASAP right?
Two of them are permanent fixes while the other is a temporary one. Want to take a guess? I will tell you below:
1. The famous "towel trick" Yes, this is probably the worst technique that any Xbox owner can do to get their Xbox back to work. By doing this trick, the red ring of death will disappear and you can have your console working in as little as 30 minutes.
The downside: This is only a temporary fix and the red lights will most likely come back within a week or so.
2. For those who have warranty with Microsoft, you can definitely send the console to them. This is a great option for those who don't feel comfortable sending it to a local technician, due to the reason that they may take parts from your Xbox 360 console. However, Microsoft will reward you by permanently fixing your console.
The downside: It may take anywhere from 4-6 weeks to get your console back from Microsoft and you will have to pay for shipping which costs anywhere from $30 and up (Remember: This is quite a heavy console)
3. You can also use a DIY (Do It Yourself) guide. This is basically an online guide that will literally show you step by step videos on how to fix your console from your own home. This is a permanent fix and you can have your console permanently fixed and working within 1 hour the most.
