Xbox 360 red light of doom? The article will cover on all the methods out there that are possible to get a fix done on your xbox 360 so that you can get back to playing.

1. The infamous towel trick

First up, there is this towel trick that you can use to get your xbox 360 working within 20 minutes. However, I heartily do not recommend it unless you have a fire extinguisher at home. The chances of your xbox catching fire is very high as it wrap your xbox 360 in towel to overheat it.

2. Repairing by Microsoft

This fix is the most common fix that most people would do. However, sending to Microsoft costs you $140 and 2 weeks of time in delivery. One added risk is here sending to Microsoft does not have a guarantee fixed on the repair.

3. Fixing your xbox 360 through a local shop

Sending your xbox 360 for repairs costs lesser than sending to Microsoft for repairs. Do check with your local shop as most of these fixes are cheaper than Microsoft's price of $140. My own local shop offers a price of $70 to $100 for fixing the xbox 360. Also, the time they take to fix the xbox 360 is about 1 week with a warranty of 1 week and up to 1 month.

4. Fixing the xbox 360 using repair guides

This is one of the best fixes for the xbox 360 as it does not use towels or any fix that may harm your xbox 360. For these fixes, there are video tutorials which show how to repair the xbox 360 in a simple non-technical way that is easy to follow and the fixes are permanent. All these fixes have a 100% money back guarantee for 2 months and costs around $40.

Another added advantage to such repair guides is that there are additional upgrades that are coupled together with the repair itself. Such upgrades give the xbox better graphics, like HDMI and even more freebies.
