xbox 360

Wrap up your Xbox with a bunch of towels or blankets.
Turn it on and let it over heat.
After a while it will get hot and shut itself off
Wait for it to cool down.

Fixed!!!

I've done it myself and know of alot of others who have done the same. It might take a couple of tries but it does work. You've got nothing to lose in trying. Google it if you dont believe me.

Was also told you can put a toothpick in the fan to get it to overheat as well.

I was all set to call up one of these repair places... but thought I'd try this towel trick first. Finally just got around to trying it. It's working again. Let's see how long it lasts. Thanks for the tip.
