Details
Primary Error code:2 red lights 2 RLOD
E-Code / Secondary Error code:E06 (No Audio/Video) / 0012
Binary/Hex:00000110 / 0x06 -> 6
Known fixes:

1) Make sure the CPU heatsink is making good contact with the chip, apply a thin layer of compound and put the heatsink on without screws, make sure it gives a good imprint then.
2)Replacing the GPU X-Clamps/Applying new thermal compound
3) It can also be fixed sometimes by just a slight tightening the GPU bolts,(1/4 or 1/8 turn). xboxgamer815

Description:

This error appears when the GPU overheated, after that the xbox locks itself until it cooled the chip down.The reason for that is that the heat cant be dissipated to the heatsink/ the heatsink isnt cooled properly...
This can be the result of improper thermal compound usage or if the error comes up instantly while booting the console, the heatsink will likely not be making any contact at all with the chip.

notice: None of this is official, the methods have often been proven to work but success cannot be guaranteed, you do it on your own risk!
If your console is still covered by the 3 year warranty use it because Microsoft will fix it for free!
