|  Deadly Red Lights
I've got three red lights, and the one that isn't lit up is the top right quadrant. Quick question, is there anything I can do to avoid calling xbox support/having to send my xbox in for repairs? |

Well I tried that and then turned it back on, but no luck. I tried a bunch of other things suggested by different sites. Only thing I haven't tried is the towel method.
If it helps at all, the power supply does still have a green light.
This is the second time this has happened to me, but last time it was late at night, I turned it off went to bed, then school the next day, came home right after and turned it on to find it perfectly ok.
I'm just curious if there's any quick way to fix it cuz I'd like to play, lol. | |

Well after not being able to play all night, I tried to see if it was still having the problem when I woke up about 20 minutes ago and it's still flashing the 3 red lights.
I really need to know if anybody has any other suggestions because I don't want to have to send it in for repairs. | |

The only time it's happened to me was when I turned on my 360 when the AV cable wasn't plugged in the back of the Xbox but I don't think that's the "Deadly" red lights. | |

Well, after calling the support number, they said I needed to send it in and it is not under warranty so the freakin' thing costs about $140. Sucks, but what can you do? | |

If it isn't under warranty I wouldn't bother sending it in. I've been waiting two weeks for the box for me to send mine in even though I was told five business days to get it.
Find out what error code your getting, http://forums.llamma.com/viewtopic.php?t=5098

If you do the "Towel Trick" Kev was talking about, it only provides a temporary connection. It won't work for that long. I did it and my 360 worked for maybe another day or so.
