Recently there has been a lot of debate about the Xbox 360 and the 3 red lights that light up when there is a hardware error meaning your $400 console has just turned into a very expensive brick!

This article will tell you a bit about the 3 red lights error and why it happens and also tell you if there is such thing as an Xbox 360 repair guide.

There are a number of different reasons the 3 red lights error happens and below are the most common causes:

Cause 1: overheating. This has got to be the most common cause of this error and the good thing is it can be easily resolved. If you think the xbox 360 has got lots of very high end gaming components within, similar to a top of the range gaming PC.

The difference is that the xbox 360 has them crammed in a much smaller space so will need lots of ventilation to be able to get rid of the heat it produces.

If you are keeping your xbox 360 in a display cabinet with the doors shut, then you could and probably will run into this error, make sure that the 360 can breathe on all sides.

cause 2: The GPU. This is a major talking point and no one is quite sure if this is gospel but a lot of resources blame the GPU and the special coating they put on it with in the Xbox.

cause 3: Warping of the Motherboard. Another reason you may find yourself searching for an xbox 360 repair guide is because the heat that the Xbox 360 lets out actually warps the motherboard. This would make the solders come loose and eventually you would end up with the 3 red lights.

Of course the above is just speculation and no-one really knows for sure why this problem happens.

I hope this article has served as a small xbox 360 repair guide and you might as well try the methods above to see if it stops your problems.

After all what have you got to loose?
