Hi my dudes, well i'm gonna be brief. My 360 S (1439) wont turn on, i touch the power button, the green light turns on, then it flashes red and turns off. I ask here because lurking on internet i just found two clear answers to this very specific problem.

>2017
>Xbox 360

I was expecting to use it to play games like Red Dead Redemption and such, so i wanted to be sure it is a power supply or another easy replacement fix, because there can't be just 3 individuals that had this problem on the whole internet.
>>
have you tried turning it off and on again?
>>
you need to replace the flux capacitor
>>
>>385944814
Completely unplug it from the power source, wait a few minutes. Then plug it back in and try it.
>>
>>385946517
Microsoft troubleshooting page be like kek.

In any case, yeah, already did that.
>>385946652
Interesting, why would that be causing the problem? What does that capacitor does? (legit curiosity).
>>
>>385947321
i will PM you the fix :)

Can't help you OP but I've got an issue too.

My 360 has been a laggy piece of shit ever since it got dropped down the stairs.

I'm talking it takes 5 minutes after pressing the power button for the main menu to appear and a solid minute after inserting the disc for the game to load. And crashes seem much more frequent.

Any idea what's broke in there to cause this?
>>
>>385947321
how old are you
>>
Works for me
>>
>>385947437
i think its because you dropped your 360 down the stairs. idk, im not an expert tho
>>
op here nwm fixed it ;)
>>
>>385947712
nj OP sending thread to solved section ;)
>>
>>385947313
Hmm, i'm gonna try that. I think that in the worst case (hopefully) it's gonna be the power supply, wouldn't be the first time that one of those things gets broken.

Just buy an xbox one x. It plays all the major 360 games and is the most powerful console available anyway.

Maybe it ran out of blinker fluid.

Hi OP, what i'm going to need you to do is pull the HDD real quick and power it on.
see if it still RRODs.
thanks.
>>
>>385948736
70 buckaroonies is still 70 buckaroonies that can be better used elsewhere, if you can potentially fix something for free but instead just buy another one you are a terrible consumer and are probably the same kind of retard who buys useless shit every day then complains about not being able to afford a house.
>>
>>385948736
That's exactly why i want to clear the doubt, i have another power supply lying on my best friend house, in two days he's gonna be back from a trip, if it's not that i won't even bother to fix it, but since Xbox can have really stupid problems, i wanted to be sure.
