Red light on your Xbox 360 usually means trouble! The most common issue is the infamous 'Red Ring of Death' (RROD), which signifies a hardware failure. Time to reach out to support or consider a repair!

One red light on your Xbox 360 can indicate a hardware failure like the dreaded E74 error. I've run into this on my console, and unfortunately, it meant I had to get it repaired.

Red light could mean different things depending on how many segments are red. Typically, if all four quadrants are red, it鈥檚 an AV cable issue. One red light, though, indicates a hard drive problem or E74 error. Get it checked ASAP!
