No signal from Xbox one

GilFialka · Oct 22, 2020

My original xbox one was all fine suddenly the screen went black and then aftwr a while the tv said no signal.

i swithced off xbox and unplugged power. I then tried to reset by turning on xbox by holding power button together with disc eject button. The xbox powers on with a solid light however still no signal to display.

i have tried different hdmi cables.

thank you

Hello GilFialka,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue with a blank screen. We recommend trying out the troubleshoot
wizard for blank screen. Please be sure to try all of these and let us know. If still having issue not seeing anything you may want to think on getting the console repaired. You can set one up on the device
support page.

Thanks,

Hi Fasada1000

Sorry you're having issues with your Xbox One. With the Xbox on hold the power button for about 10 seconds, the Xbox will quickly power off. After that turn it back on and see if you see a picture. If that doesn't work with the Xbox off hold the power
and eject till you hear a beep. Then turn it back on.

If still no pictures then try another HDMI cable, or TV.

The Xbox One doesn't directly pass through the HDMI signal. It always "intercepts" everything coming in from the HDMI in port and processes it.

Since the original idea was to have TV and games "picture in picture", the Xbox takes the video signal, and processes it to be included with the TV app on the console and then outputs it via it's own video signal to the TV.

Since the original Xbox One isn't 4K capable, you will not get 4K from your cable box if you run it through the original Xbox One.

People have the misconception of HDMI pass through. All this means is that the HDMI signal from your cable box is "passed through" the Xbox one. If your Xbox isn't on, it won't be able to pass the signal through.

i agree with Pvt McBagel

Your xbox signal might be getting an tenteriferance with your router. meaning that the signal from your xbox isn't as "clean" of a signal that your router can understand.

the best thing to do to find out if it is your xbox signal is to 1. move your xbox closer to the router and 2. if you have one is get a radio that has AM settings and use it between your xbox and your router the move static noise you get the worst your signal
is.

if it is your xbox signal then just move it(can't express that enough) until the signal is not so "dirty".

Hope this helps
