XBox 360 Repair Guides - Making The Right Choice

Following the serious issue of the Red Ring Of Death effecting many XBox consoles there has been an influx of repair guides and tutorials available. Caution does need to be taken however when choosing the right XBox 360 Repair Guide.

There are various options available when deciding to repair your console. You can either send the console to Microsoft to be repaired or attempt the repair yourself. Many however are performing the repair at home because sending your XBox to Microsoft will incur a charge of around $140 with a wait of around 6 weeks - Quite a considerable delay for any serious XBox enthusiast.

A simple yet effective repair can be performed on any XBox unit in around 1 hour, we took a look into the various options available.

When making the decision to take out the repair we found that only a few guides were effective. The best guide was 3 Red Light Fix as its modification was explained clearly and precise. There is also a handful of other modifications with it to combat over heating and other issues too.

Performing a repair on any XBox is possible providing you have the correct guide, the repair also does not require any serious modifications to the unit and is designed for anyone to understand.

The alarming thing was though, there is a whole bunch of guides and sets of instructions that had the potential to cause harm. Some of these repairs included: Stuffing the console with towels and other botched arrangements. Attempting these kinds of repairs would not only be ineffective but also likely to cause more harm to your XBox.

3 Red Light Fix seems to be the most famous and successful guide, thousands have already used it, this guide has built a solid reputation and is in many cases being considered the official guide to repair your XBox.

3 Red Light Fix is available for instant download at $24, a price which is considered very cheap compared to the Microsoft repair.
