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:

    A man may be defeated by his own secondary successes.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    Truth is the kind of error without which a certain species of life could not live. The value for life is ultimately decisive.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    ...I had grown up in a world that was dominated by immature age. Not by vigorous immaturity, but by immaturity that was old and tired and prudent, that loved ritual and rubric, and was utterly wanting in curiosity about the new and the strange. Its era has passed away, and the world it made has crumbled around us. Its finest creation, a code of manners, has been ridiculed and discarded.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
