Microsoft Xbox 360 Controller Logo
Katy Carver Posted on Mar 29, 2013

My Xbox 360 red ringed about four days ago, so I hadn't turned it on since then. I took it home for spring break to try to fix the problem or whatever, but when I turned it on, it didn't give

I know how to sync the controllers, but I've never had a problem with my Xbox red ringing before, and I don't know if the controller connectivity issues could be related to the red ring of death.

They can be. If the console is not working properly the controllers usually dont turn on correctly. Try sending it to videogame911.com i used them for my red ring issue with my XBox and got it back within the week. Also they were EXTREMELY low on price compared to the manufacture and offered me a 90 day warranty with all data saved. Hopefully this works for you!

SOURCE: None of my wireless XBox

If the wireless controllers won't connect under any circumstances even with the Charge-and-Play Cable then you most likely have a problem with a board inside your 360, i think it's like the RF board or something, mind you, the C-P cord only forces through an electrical charge and does not force the controller and console to connect, it just works when your batteries are low, in the event that your console is faulty, you can purchase RF boards and replace them yourself (voids the warranty but takes 20 minutes) or send it into XBox HQ (gives you more warranty but takes like 6 months)

I hadn't had my xbox 360 on all day and when I turned it on it had 3 red rings. No picture is showing up on the TV and the light on the power supply is green.

That is the red ring of death...if your XBOX is less than 3 years old call Microsoft tech support and they will arrange for a replacement unit.

Xbox 360 red light four red lights on the front of console

Yes you can fix it. Four red lights on is an indication that the video cable is not plugged into the console. I suggest you check and see if the pins in the cable and unit are not damaged and the cable is fully in the AV port. If all is well, than borrow another cable from a friend and try it in your console or try yours in theirs.

Xbox 360 wont load to main menu. No red ring.

This is the problem with the GPU, Just fixed on the other day with the same problem. best way to fix it is with a heatgun and an xbox360 repair kit. The same kit for fixing the 3 red lights and E74 problems.

You can get the kit here.

Black chip on the side.one of 'em fell out.

All xbox 360 are given a warranty for the 3 rings of death. If you call microsoft and tell them that your xbox 360 continues to get the rings of death, they will mail you a box, take your console, repair it, install the latest hardware, test it, and mail it back to you for free.
