How To Fix the Red Ring of Death #1 (Penny Trick)
This is going to permenantly fix your red ring of death, all you need is a T9 screwdriver, electrical tape, silicone base thermal paste, and 4 sets of 2 pennies (8 all together if your not good at math). This has worked on my friend’s xbox for a year and a half now, and mine worked for about a year. If you want more info, send me a message or video response this video. **Update** Yes, you can still use live when you are done, no it will not ban your account. Just make sure you have …

hi i have a problem i used thermel paste but the pennys dont sty there they always falling down. what should i do?
you put too much of it on your cpu’s. only add enough to create a vaccuum between teh pennies and the core otehrwise it slips.
does this really work?
everyone ahs their own opinion about what they buy and how well it is.
and i do believe that 360 came out well before ps3 and wii
so your accusations are false in every way
it’s not VRAM. its the 4 seperate cells of teh processor. why they are how they ae is a mystery to me also.
the pennis dont hold
Actually the 360 was trying to stay above ps2. They didn’t know how advanced ps3 was going to be so they still copied many of the things ps2 had, like memory card slots even tho the 360 had a HDD they still had memory card slots, also, with the 360, they didn’t know sony was going to bring out wireless controllers and as soon as they did xbox hurried as fast as they could to copy them, not only did the controllers fail but you had to have an actual censor device connected to the xbox.
Lets not forget, over 50% of all xbox consoles, get the red ring of death, Sony consoles are 100% reliable, I’ve spilt water inside my ps3 and I waited a few days to let it dry out and turned it on, it worked fine, unlike xbox, it just fucks up without even damaging it
games are better on 360 dude. not many M rated games for PS3.
what is the problem if you have done this and your xbox runs with 3 rings then sounds like an airplane taking off and just shuts off while having two rings
i think you need to look at the facts.. over 50 percent of xboxs get the rrod.. microsoft never updated their statistics about this since the very first year.. they said that it is less than 5% of xboxs that get the rrod.. there solution was to push the warranty to 3 years.. i think microsoft should have took their time and created a great console and trust that people would stay with xbox
? the controllers didnt fail.. and u only need the controller nothing else to use wireless
no.. there not they said ps3’s have a 3% or somethin and iv spilt water in my xbox i let it dry then i played live the next day
my xbox broke again aftter doin the trick wot do thin is rong and i have got the 3 red rings
hahahahaha, the guy dropped it
check and see what your av cables are set to. if you have an hd tv, set it to “hdmi”. if you have a regular tv, make sure the switch is on “tv”
my xbox had the same problem. i bought an intercooler and it works fine now.
thanks a lot for this vid. i used it and fixed my 360. runs great now. it used to freeze while palying games eventually freezing every time i played a game witin a couple minutes. after this method it works better than before. i never reached rrod stage though but similar problem i think. going to try to fix my friends rrod problem with this trick. hopefully it works.
Does this only work with three Red Rings? Mine has only one red ring.
great vid
first off your an idiot for having any liquid near an electronic device. secondly it’s not microsoft’s fault that they didn’t incorporate the gametime usage. guarunteed that of the 360’s bought that got rrod are played for well over the 2 hours a day tehy suggest.
Thanks man but can u show us how to fix your controllers mine is busted when im playing halo3 and shot someone its says that your controller have been disconnected but its still on like WTF
can u still do this method if you previously did the towel trick twice? also after u do this penny trick and when you have to do the towel trick what time do you recommend 20 minutes then 20 minutes to cool off? thanks for any help.
never do towel trick
Askaredneckgeek’s Channel to see why not to bake the box to 2 red lights.
i got the red ring of death 3 days after buying it then i turned it off then back on and it fixed itself
