If you have an Xbox 360 then you will already know that it is an awesome gaming console however it can be prone to a number of hardware issues and the main one that crops up from time to time is the red lights on the power button.
However there are quite a few “secondary” problems that you can get with the system for instance you may get freezing up during your games, wavy lines and the graphics distorting when playing your games and sometimes your Xbox 360 can stop playing your games.
What Happens?
You put a disc in your Xbox 360 and it either “hangs” and will not play or it spits it back out at you.
Why:
This actually happens because of overheating on the main chips on the back of the system. It is not normally the drive that is faulty so that is good to know.
Solution:
You just need to stop the heat build up getting to the main sensors on the back of the DVD drive and you will be able to play your games again!
It is not that difficult to do either.
You can do this at home with a few household items and it will take you less than an hour to complete the fix.
Or the other way that you will have to fix this is to send it in and they will fix it for you at the factory however there will be a repair charge of about $140 for this error.
It will also take about 4 weeks to complete the fix.
