Xbox 360 Slim red dot when turned on while connected to HDMI and green dot when HDMI is not connected. Both cases - No signal

Xbox 360 Slim red dot when turned on while connected to HDMI and green dot when HDMI is not connected. Both cases - No signal - Spiral notebook with message on white paper sheet

When I turned on my Xbox it had the red dot instead of the green dot. All lights on my controller were on and the TV had no signal.

I thought this might be an issue with my power outlet so I connected it to a different one, this time without the HDMI cable. This time the dot remained green but the controller still had all 4 lights on.

I have the 4GB Slim Model

Help me out?

This could be a Graphic card mafunction, i suggest attempting to try different cables, but also other cables like AV or VGA.

make sure you only have ONE TYPE of video connected, (i.e., do not have HDMI and AV connected at the same time).

If the problem still persists, and even trying a different TV doesnt work, one option is a Factory Reset, keep in mind that it earases the complete harddrive!

An other option would be to contact the MS/XBox helpdesk in your country, or if there is still a warranty/store warranty on there, a visit to the shop you bought it at doesnt seem like a bad idea

How do I fix my Xbox 360 HDMI no signal?

Solution 2: Check your cable
  • Make sure the A/V or HDMI cable is firmly plugged in to the correct ports on your console and your TV or monitor.
  • If there's a switch on the cable itself with markings such as \u201cTV/HDTV,\u201d make sure the setting is correct for your TV (standard or HD) setup.


  • Why does my Xbox 360 Slim have a red dot?

    The light in the center of your Xbox 360 console power button is blinking red. A blinking red light on the power button means that your console doesn't have enough ventilation. The red light will continue to blink until the console cools down.

    Answer 2

    The same thing happens to me. Took it apart, disconnected everything and then put it back together and then it works, but when I plug my hdmi in, it turns red. Also I tried the old av and still happens.
