Hope this is the right place for me to ask and seek help.

What happen is whenever I switch on the XBOX360, instead of booting up normally, nothing happens and the indicator light on the console flashes red.

Anyone knows what's wrong with the console?

3 red light or 4 light?
US/JP or Asian console?
use transformer or not?

if 4 light then check ur cable, plug out and plug in again.

my problem is either my console is out or something wrong with my power adapter. flashing red light when connect to transformer.

Flashing 3 red lights.

It's a Korea machine, i suppose it's Asian console

Transformer? Nope, just the power adaptor.

Oh your god... i think try asking our frenz here at 3 light of death thread, u might got really serious problem over there.

power indicator got 4 lights... according to your post, you said it's 3 red lights. does the upper corner red or nothing?

If you're looking at the console standing vertically, the side with no light is upper right corner

you just got hit by the deadly 3ROD... sorry telling you this. please unplug everything to the console and then replug back everything, just give it a try.

* at the same time, you need to check on the warranty issue now. if can send warranty then get a replacement set. if no warranty then you need to get professional help from bro tot31 or metalgrindsolid for the xclamp fix.

Isn't it obvious!

3 Blinking Red Lights Of Death..Is it the END?

There's hope though...LIVE after Death....No More 3ROD Worries....

yup, it's 3ROD...

oh damn, what's 3ROD? Sorry I'm not up-to-date on XBOX360 scene
Very serious issue, eh?

Yeah, will ask on warranty from seller.

3ROD in other words meaning hardware failure and also means your 360 is dead gone for good.

i was a 3ROD victim too. my 14 months japanese 360 died but lucky 2 forumers revived it last week using hot gun and xclamp fix. so far so good and still working.

It happens evrytime kah?

wah, since when u got a Xbox360?

anyways, 3ROD = BSOD

I got same 3rod problem but my adapter is the cause...

you might wanna head over here...

and see first what the problem.

so how already fixed?

hah, today i go check it out... coz since i pick up my console, i tried to turn it on but no respond at all. by mean of red light, its not flashing at console but my power adapter... so not sure either my adapter is broken or my console is broken in first place...

well spongebob... u wan to follow me n reen to go to ss2 or cineleisure 2pm today? forgot to ajak u sekali...

hish date berdua tak nak ajak member hehehehe

Do you mean the three red light blinking?
I facing this problem when me AV cable no connet correctly or loose, after i fix the AV cable , it can be on again. Can i know the 3rod mean the 3 light on permanantly or it blinking?

normally will be blinking..

wehh ventri
sudah dapat kaaa 360??
so takder laa berebeut dgn demonic lagi??

dah dapat tapi tak boleh on tu yang aku bengang sekrg

bawak jumpa rossi laa
tanya apa prob

aku punya dah dapat balik
dalam masa 2-3 hari nie kalau oke aku akan live balik

Juz now when playing Virtua Tennis 3,the console suddenly hang...Another 3ROD symptom kah?

dont think too much... just sits back and enjoy. if really got that 3rod then only work out on the solution unless your 360 no longer under warranty.

sometime our normal console hangs but very rare la
but if hang like 2-3 times in an hour or day thats a symptom from what i see

sometimes 3rods happens cause the power adaptor itself...not because of the console...

it happen to my friend xbox360...the main plug at his house got some probs...so when he turn on his 360 got the 3ROD because the adaptor cant receive enough power to turn on the Xbox360...

when he called the electricians to came over and repair the main plung and etc....after that he just give a try to turn on and play the 360....walla 100% okey and seems no problem until now...

3ROD flashing sometimes not because of the console....general hardware failure...can be the adaptor itself...
