xbox360 three light problem

[ashfahan]

Hi there
I was using 360 for 6 months without any problem, but now i got stuck up.
my console often gives 3 red light problem.Sometimes i can overcome it by overheating it(By covering whole console with towel and running for 20 minutes.)
BUT it is not the permanent issue.....
NOW Dont tell me to contact microsoft or customercare as you all know....
Waiting for your help,
Thanks...

U will have to open the consle and add some thermal paste
(Artic Cooling MX-2)to the gpu and cpu clean the dust.
If u ain't smart enough to do it ur self let an expert do it.
Search on the web for more.

He's using a Modded 360

I'm in safe waters here though , as i boght mine from an official dealer .

PS: but it seems my 360 isn't gonna die , coz i've been using it since october like 4-5 Hours a day and still it hasn' hanged even once .

^ that RROD is more like a hype for unmodded consoles and in case of such problem microsoft support works great .the problem will have no perfect solution for modded consoles.u can try any local mechanic
