The very first thing that you need to do before

that troubleshooting will work out perfectly. Now if the problem is
that your computer gets no connection or network from any web sites
online, your first move will be to troubleshoot your home connection
first.
After you have already determined that your home network is
okay, the next thing that you need to do is to determine the
different technical issues concerning your Xbox. Determining the
various issues will help you isolate problems from the specific
steps that you will do to address such underlying issues. When red
lights start to flash on the console of your Xbox, the best way to
identify the meaning is to identify the right codes for these lights
first.
While you are troubleshooting your Xbox, you need to press
and then hold the sync button the moment you see 3 red lights that
flash around the power source button. After it, you have to press
the eject button. The result of this procedure is that the LEDs will
bring out the first number code. After you obtained the first code,
do the same procedure again for you to get the next code. Try doing
the procedure two more times to obtain the remaining 2 codes. Now,
the movement you have obtained the fourth code, the 3 red lights
start to flash again.
If 4 red lights start flashing, the number code to use is 0.
If in case that only one light flashes, the code to be used is 1; if
two lights flash, the code is going to be 2 and code 3 stands for
three red lights flashing.
After learning the codes, you may now start your own
troubleshooting and interpretation procedures by simply following
the steps below:
Code 0001 – this simply means that the power supply of your
Xbox console is having problem.
Code 0002 – this means that there is an arising issue on
your console’s Network Interface.
Code 0003 – this code simply help you determine that there
seems to be a problem happening in your console’s GPU or PSU system.
Those are just some of the basic codes and their
corresponding interpretations that you need to learn when doing your
own basic Xbox troubleshooting procedures; there are more to learn.
Contact a certified repairman and he will tell you more of these
codes.
