Many have bought and owned one Xbox 360 and because of this many have also despaired and encounter the red light. These little red rings that appear after you have pushed the reset button on your console means that you are Xbox 360 will now stop working. Now you are wondering if this really happened you hope that by turning it off and letting the Xbox rest for a couple that maybe it will get fixed. I have bad news, it will not.

There is really not a problem with your console even if you bought a secondhand one. There is just a problem with the alignment of the wires. Because of this your game was suddenly halted without warning.

The reason behind this faulty alignment is because they were in a hurry to be the first to release the first new generation console they made the cooling system too small and thus the reason for the red lights that mean overheating. Even though they knew their mistake they still did not say anything and waited for the buyers themselves to discover such a flaw.

But because of the outrage and angry complaints they received the company has agreed to fix the problem. Those who called the company received a message saying just send your unit in. Easy enough, but this comes with a price. The repairs takes SIX WEEKS to complete which means a lot of down time that affects your gaming career and the amount of payment is as the same as buying a new unit.
