It’s quite simple, really. Your Xbox 360 console gets the 3 red light error because Microsoft rushed these units into production back in the holiday season of 2005. Because of this rush to release them to the masses, there were some shortcuts taken in the manufacturing of the console. These shortcuts are the reason you get the 3 red light error, especially if you happen to have one of the first run Xbox 360’s.

The poor manufacturing of the console is what causes your games to freeze when you are in the middle of playing them, overheating, and the infamous three red lights. The underlying cause? Overheating. To put it bluntly, the Xbox 360 was designed and manufactured in such a way that poorly dissipates heat. This results in your Xbox 360 overheating to the point where the chips on the motherboard do not function properly, and as a result, starts to freeze your game, and ultimately leads to the 3 red light error.

This repair manual is available so you can fix this problem yourself. I have used this method around 20 times or so, fixing friends Xbox’s as well as purchasing broken consoles on eBay and reselling them.

I  purchased an Xbox 360 with 3 red lights off ebay for 75 bucks. Well, it finally came today and I fixed it in 30 minutes flat using this guide. I was going to re-list it on ebay to see how much I could get for it, but a friend of mine wants to buy it. He agreed to buy it for $175. I made $100 in A HALF HOUR! All this happened tonight. It really is amazing how easy this fix really is.
