Hey guys, I am having some issue with my xbox. I turn it on and 5 seconds later I get 2 rl. Isnt it the overheating rl?
Well I touched the heatsink and it was cold. I hadnt turned this xbox on since wednesday.
Any Ideas?
Overheating? Impossible
Re: Overheating? Impossible
the 2 left lights right ? and they flash on & off ?
are you fans still working ? are they blocked by a wall or anything ?
you are right it is a overheating thing try cleaning the dust out of it
that might help (if there is any that is)

Re: Overheating? Impossible
If you try everything else, you may want to take the heatsinks off, and put some new thermal paste on...
It could be that your CPU and GPU are heating up, and the heat is not being transferred to the heat sink, causing the 2 red lights...
