Xbox 360 Technical Problems - Secondary Error Code

Secondary Error Code

Xbox 360's which have a hardware failure will display a secondary error code when the correct button sequence is pushed. To get the secondary error code:

  • Press and hold the "sync" button on your Xbox 360.
  • While holding the sync button, press the eject button.
  • When you press the eject button, a series of lights will flash, either 1, 2, 3 or 4 lights.
  • Release the eject button, and press the it again (continue holding the sync button).
  • Repeat this process to get 4 sets of lights.

    Here is how to convert the lights into a code:

    1 light = 1
    2 lights = 2
    3 lights = 3
    4 lights = 0

    So, for example if you get 4, 1, 1, 4, your error code is 0110. An explanation of the meaning of the error codes can be found here:

Famous quotes containing the words secondary, error and/or code:

    Readers are less and less seen as mere non-writers, the subhuman “other” or flawed derivative of the author; the lack of a pen is no longer a shameful mark of secondary status but a positively enabling space, just as within every writer can be seen to lurk, as a repressed but contaminating antithesis, a reader.
    Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)

    We shall yet acknowledge His wisdom and our own error therein.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Faultless honesty is a sine qua non of business life. Not alone the honesty according to the moral code and the Bible. When I speak of honesty I refer to the small, hidden, evasive meannesses of our natures. I speak of the honesty of ourselves to ourselves.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
