Flashing and clicking power button

Hey there JenniferAllen86!

The first thing I would do would be to leave it alone for awhile and then return and see if it does the same thing when you try and power back on again.

I looked up on the forum and found someone with a similar issue. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...flashing/78784a67-616b-48fb-b638-e655e11e35aa
They seemed to have possibly found a solution. It seems like you most likely have to send it out to be repaired. Hopefully you can handle that lol.

One more thing. You said it's making a clicking sound. Could you describe that a little more? Do you mean the chime when you push the power button or is it some sort of internal clicking?

Hi JenniferAllen86,

Try to power cycle your console by pressing and holding the power button for a few seconds. But NOT WHILE it is flashing.

Thank you. It was warm yesterday when i noticed it. I will give it a try

It seems to happen about three times a week. Which seems strange to me because I know it is not updated that often, and the fact that when it finally does turn off, it goes into power saving mode.

This happens to my console every once in a while. Just unplug it from the wall outlet and wait for 1 minute so the console stops. ( also, so static electricity goes away) Then turn it back on ( unless the consoles super hot) and sign in to xbox live. If
the console is super hot do not plug it back in and I would get a hold of xbox support.
