My Xbox Series S keeps turning itself off

LeviW2 · Nov 5, 2021

I have it out in the open so it’s not a ventilation problem. I’ve turned the power settings to energy saving, I’ve restarted it, nothing seems to work. I got the console earlier this year, this is the 3rd or 4th time it has shut itself off. It also doesn’t choose a game to do this, it’ll do it at random. Sometimes, it freezes the game and then turns itself off.

Should I return it and get another one? Send it in for a repair? I don’t want to call up Microsoft because yes I’ve tried cycling the system. No, it doesn’t work. It doesn’t give me any kind of error code, it just turns off. If there’s any advice or fix, even if I have to send it in for a repair, it would greatly be appreciated.

It’s taking me to flight simulator. Am I missing something?

I'll recommend you send the device for repair as it seems to be a hardware issue. You can see how to do that here https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/re...

Thank you so much. I put in the order and got an email with a shipping label to print, but how should I package it for shipping? Is there any specific way?
