  1. Xbox 360 controller flashing lights


    Ok, after 5 hours of finding out how to post a thread, my controller is not working correctly. It flashes randomly, and I mean randomly. It reads 1st player normally, then does the 4 lights thing, then switches to 2nd player, then back, 3rd, 2nd etc, etc...
    can someone tell me what is going on?

    :)

    Hey, I've provided some links below so you can identify what the lights mean, I hope this is useful and if you need any further help, just shoot me a PM.





    • Two flashing lights indicate that your 360 is overheated and needs to cool down (Support guide)


    • Three flashing red lights (Support Guide) indicate a Hardware failure


    • Four flashing red lights indicate there might be a problem with the A/V cable (Support Guide)

    That sounds strange.

    Do you have anything close to your Controller or PC that send out a similar signal?

    Or is anything in the way.

    Did you try out a other controller?

    Are you using a wired or wireless controller?

    3 red rings after update

    A better suggestion since the above posted article is for the "Orignial Xbox 360" not the Xbox 360 S would be to use the

    Flashing Lights Wizard
    to help troubleshoot the exact issue with your Xbox 360.
