    Clicking noise


    anyone know what the clicking noise is on my Xbox one S? Think it could be a fan or hard drive but definitely not disc reader. It’s about a month out of warranty. Thanks

    :)

    Clicking noise?

    I can't hear anything coming from my Xbox One, but then again that's why I wear hearing aids. =P

    I think everyone's does that. At least I know mine does and I've heard others on here mention it also so I would say it's normal, even though I'm not sure what is making the noise.

    Clicking noise

    A clicking noise could be any of the three components inside (fan, HDD, disc drive). I don’t know what kind of clicking you hear, so there’s not much info to go on from a forum post alone.

    Do you experience problems with loading games and such? If so, probably the hard drive is about to go bad.

    Do you have problems reading game discs and movies? If so, the disc drive is the issue.

    At times when the Xbox plays games, the fan would usually spin faster to keep the system cool. Perhaps the clicking would be louder or more frequent. If this is the case, then the fan might be the issue.

    If it’s outside of warranty, Microsoft may likely only let you replace the whole console at full price. You can check if this is the case by setting up a repair request and seeing a quote near the end (before you actually submit):

    Clicking noise?

    Mine doesn't do that.

    .

    And it certainly is NOT normal. When it's off, it's off. It shouldn't be making any noises, at all.

    Is this sound coming directly from the xbox itslef or are you hearing these sounds over f.e. your speakers? If its coming directly from the device it may be a faulty bevoming harddrive so you better phone the support team on this to have your console serviced.

    The number can be found at

    I don't think the console is totally shut down.. I have it set to turn on with voice so it goes into a low power setting right?
