Kain Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Okay, so I'm playing Rock Band 2 today when I notice that the shadows were turning a bit of a shade of green. Then the other colors got a bit washed in green. So I think 'hm, maybe the AV jack is loose', and so I pull it and replace it. Now I'm looking at a blank screen. Has anyone else run into this problem and, if so, how did you fix it? And its not the cords - they work fine on every other XBox I've tried them on (which is 3). And no other cords worked in my XBox - not even an HDMI cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 It sounds like it could be that your 360's AV jack has a loose connection. I know next to nothing about how 360's are put together, but jacks like that are usually soldered to wires and these soldered joints can come loose. The jacks themselves sometimes have 2 main components that screw together and those can come loose as well, which also messes with the connection. Would it void your warranty (or would M$ be able to tell) if you opened the case to check out the plug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 Yes, it would void my warranty to crack it open. Actually, the whole problem became moot. My buddy let me borrow his extra 360 until I get mine back from Microsuck. Can I get a close? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
