  1. Xbox 360 E Fan doesn't work when I turn it on -- Help?


    When I first turn on my crappy xbox 360 e, the fan doesn't work. A screen pops up telling me that my xbox will turn off because it's hot. A red light flashes inside my power button. After the red light stops flashing, I turn the console back on and THEN
    the fan starts operating. It's really annoying seeing as how I have to start the console once, have it overheat, turn off, turn it on again THEN start playing or watching something. This is really frustrating. I can honestly say that i've had it with xbox
    and all of its problems. It's a junk, piece of *** that should have never seen development. It's completely atrocious. And they brand and sell it. Unbelievable. I paid money for this piece of worthless junk (which makes me a fool) and I expect it to work to
    it's full potential. Microsuck need to get their *** straight. How can I fix this piece of crap? you know, besides driving over it with my car because it's just driving me crazy.

    :)

    Xbox 360 E Fan doesn't work when I turn it on -- Help?

    If it is still under warrenty then take it back to the shop for a replacement or phone Microsoft for a repair.

    If it's not under warranty then you will have to pay either Microsoft or a specialist repair shop to fix it.

    "Specialist shop" is against TOS...that being said, yeah. Either look into the issue yourself, or get Microsoft to 'fix' it for you. (And by fix I mean give you a refurb console that will suffer the same, or different issue within a few years)

    Thank you for your help! I think the Xbox 360 gave completely out. :( It won't even turn on now. :( The last time it was on tonight, it made a really loud humming sound like the fan was working really hard in there. Then the green light turned red. Now
    when I go to turn it on, it won't turn on at all. :(

    New Xbox 360 E: hot, making noise, and freezing

    Hey,

    For those that are having problems with your xbox 360 running hot. Try placing your Xbox 360 little lower towards ground level and not on carpet but can place on hard surfaces. Also do not place anything on top of the xbox 360 like games or anything covering
    the holes or place it in an enclosed area. Lastly if your Xbox 360 is running hot.. may be best to turn it off and put a fan on it or place it by a window and let the hot air exhaust for a bit. I can honeslty say I did the mistake of placing games cases on
    top of my xbox 360 E and found out later when I picked up those game cases it was hot, of course I turned my xbox 360 E off immediately after and let it cool down. Just becareful and make sure you have your Xbox 360 in a good area with plenty of air flow
    and not high above the ground.
