My XBox 360 gives me two red lights, and my system is not hot at all?

Michael Pyon asked:
After I play for a few minutes, my system shuts off and I get two red lights from the ring of light. I touch the console’s vents, and they seem to be at a normal temperature, some vents are even cool to the touch. Why is my XBox 360 overheating, when it doesn’t seem like it? Would the Nyko Intercooler EX solve this problem?

Nope. I had the same problem as you. I kept it for another week like that and eventually it wouldnt even read the disk anymore. If your still under warrenty make sure you use it!

the two redlights doesn’t necessarily mean that the xbox is overheated!
Probably, in you case, is the power font! just, unplug all the cables, even the power ones, wait 30 seconds, and plug all again, make sure the cables are all well connected, and lunch your xbox again! make sure there is no dust in the vents too!

I had the same thing happen to me, but the weird thing with mine was that they lit up as soon as I turned on the xbox. What I ended up doing was taking the hard drive out, and putting it back in, then restart. It worked fine and hasn’t happened since.
