    Issues with power brick


    hi, i was just about to start playing a game on my x box one, when i heard a pop noise as if a fuse blew. I tried starting the console back up again by pressing on the start button but it wouldnt respond. When i unplug the power brick what it does is flash one orange light and then it just shuts off again. I tried plugging it into another outlet in the wall, but that doesnt work either. Does this mean i need to just buy a new power brick?

    :)

    Power Brick Issue

    Hey there :)



    Sure you can! Your going to want to head on over to the service center (CLICK HERE) and register your product.



    From there you should be able to select "replacement accessories" and your good to go!



    Hope this helps.

    Many thanks,

    There are some proper Microsoft power bricks on eBay, but the prices are quite high as there's not currently any other way to buy one.

    I agree with 989 though - the third party ones are to be avoided, as they're usually low quality and probably haven't gone through a lot of testing. Also, I believe that using one would void your console's warranty due to it being an unauthorised accessory.
    MS will not take responsibility if a dodgy third party PSU fries your machine.

    Same problem on my 360. A power surge wiped out the original brick, bought what I thought was a Microsoft brand replacement. It wasn't and now it overheats after 30ish minutes. Takes a couple of hours to cool down. Doesn't kill the power though. Says "reconnect
    controller" and the center green light on the console goes out. (Not batteries)
