My xbox 360 has been receiveing the 2 RLOD, and now it's getting quite hot. I'm not sure where to begin to remedy this problem. I googled it but not much came up about it(next to nothing), do I need a new fan for it or What? Any Help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I would say try and leave it in a cool spot for a couple of hours and let it cool down and then see how it does. Also i would recomend getting new fans for it. INTERNAL fans not the external crap.

What do you mean by the external crap remark? The so called "external crap" often do a better job than that of the internal fans... the high quality "external crap" has more fans and effectively work better.
With the 2 RRoD... if it is still under warranty then i would disregard waxydead's advice and take it straight to MS for repair. If it is not then i would take a peek inside and see if there is any obvious signs of wear. If you are not technologically capable of this then take it to a repair shop, and get them to diagnose the problem professionally

When i had e74 (before e74 was covered in 3 year warranty) i just pulled out the power adapter a little bit, which caused 3 rrod, took a few shots of that then sent it in to ms along with console... it came back repaired for free even when it would of cost me $70 normally. ms make billions of $ a year ripping people off, time they pay it back.
Yeh, my console was never really under warranty (I received it from a friend), I had fixed it twice already(One 3RRoD and a disc drive problem). So I got the techy power to fix it. But, it's been working for a couple hours, then getting the 2 RRoD (It's been shooting out hot air that slighty hotter than normal). So, I think it's the fan problem. Is there any type of fan's you guy's recommend, if so where can I get it? Again Thanks for the help.
The color doesnt really matter, and if you are looking to not spend the moeny for both fans id definently recomend going with the first one, that one is a replacement for the back fan and really hekos out alot.
