Reset all passcodes and security questions with this code:

Note: The reset code Microsoft support gives out is a unique button combo based on the 360 serial number. Best bet is to call Microsoft Support to get the code for your specific Xbox 360 serial n umber. Below is just one example of code given, but there are many.

1. On the 360 dashboard, scroll over to the "System" tab.
2. On the System tab, click "Console Settings".
3. Scroll down in console settings and click "System Info".
4. When the system info box comes up type in this sequence:
LT RT X Y LB RB Y "Left Stick in" (press it in) Y Y
A box should come up and say, "Would you like to reset the console to the factory defaults?"
Click Reset and you're done!

If this doesn't work, call Microsoft at 1-800-4MY-XBOX (U.S.). Provide them with your registration info and they will tell you how to reset the console.

or,

Call Xbox Customer Support at 1-800-4-MY-XBOX (1-800-469-9269).

Take off family code

Hi, really you have only a couple options. Either guess the security questions correctly, reset the system or get it replaced.

If you want to just get to the prompt to change the passcode and you know the security question, type in:
Code to go to family control security questionX, Y, Left Trigger, X

If you want to reset all settings to factory default you would press:
Code to restore factory defaults.LT, RT, X, Y, LB, RB, D(dpad), Y, U(dpad), D(dpad)
Go to console settings and all the way down to select system info.
Enter code above.
Then you will be prompted to restore factory defaults.
Your 360 will then restart and go to the dashboard.
When prompted to restore family settings, you would choose to skip it.

Also, you can do this while removing all storage devices if you are concerned of any changes. Just turn off your system before and after while disconnecting your hard drive or memory units.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I dont remember my family passcode.and im trying to figure out how to reset it

Many people have asked how they can reset the family timer settings and/or the passcode on their Xbox 360 console . I have the answer! No cheap tricks! Reset all passcodes and security questions with this code: 1. On the 360 dashboard, scroll over to the "System" tab. 2. On the System tab, click "Console Settings". 3. Scroll down in console settings and click "System Info". 4. When the system info box comes up type in this sequence: LT RT X Y LB RB Y "Left Stick in" (press it in) Y Y A box should come up and say, "Would you like to reset the console to the factory defaults?" Click Reset and you're done! If this doesn't work, and that's highly unlikely, call Microsoft at 1-800-4MY-XBOX (U.S.). Provide them with your registration info and they will tell you how to reset the console. or, CallXbox Customer Support at 1-800-4-MY-XBOX (1-800-469-9269).

I bought a used Xbox360 and the family timer is set on it. I want to reset this but unable to. There is a description on here that is a gentleman explaining how to solve the issue but its not working for...

When the Xbox 360 Family Settings are first setup, you are required to give it a four-button pass code in order to add or change settings.

There are two ways to edit or remove the Family Timer.

If you do have the pass code:
  1. Go to My Xbox and open System Settings.
  2. Select Family Settings, Console Controls.
  3. Enter your pass code.
  4. Select Family Timer.
  5. Select Disable.
  6. Select Done.
  7. Select Yes, save changes.
Now your timer should be disabled!

If you do not have the pass code:
  • Try contacting the previous owner.
  • Call Xbox Customer Support at 1-800-469-9269

Family Timer on the box and I dont have a pass word. How do I over ride?

Hello,

Do you know the the answer to the random question that was set?

If you dont then try this:

Start by going to the SYSTEM tab and select CONSOLE SETTINGS. Scroll all the way down to the bottom and select SYSTEM INFO.

When you open up this screen, just hit these buttons in this order: LEFT TRIGGER, RIGHT TRIGGER, X, Y, LEFT BUMPER, RIGHT BUMPER If it doesn't work right away, just try it again.

A screen should pop up asking you if you would like to reset the settings. This won't delete your profile or anything so select YES. The XBOX will restart itself and it will then ask for the language and country again.
Next it will ask for info on the pass code. Choose the rating you want the code for and then input your new code.

Hope this helped?
