Power light error turns red

Sounds very much like time to upgrade you could try buying a new power unit from amazon or go to a game shop they may have some second hand.

Hi,

Sorry about it, you have to check the troubleshooting to know how to fix it as the previous ambassador told you.

If its not working, its meaning that your Xbox needs a repair...

Hi crithiangamer8,

sorry to hear. Please check:
"power button blinks red"

Hope this helps and please keep us informed

It will be green when the console is powered. Yellow is standby. Red is fault. Yellow with console powered usually will have the console display red error lights. Green is good to have, but still can have red error lights displayed if there is such an error.
Now red, red usually means a short or electrical problem like over or under voltage. Red on an Xbox whether the ring of light or psu is bad news.

Hi there! The one red light indicates that there was a system error. No worries, as you can diagnose and treat it. Here's how:

1. Unplug everything from your Xbox, including the power cord, controllers, flash drive, the whole shebang. Please also disconnect the power box from the AC cord as well. Then, put the power cord back together and power on the console by pressing the power
button on the console, not the controller.

2. If the console still has the red light, it's time to remove the hard drive. All you have to do is to turn off your console, press the latch on your hard drive, lift up and remove it. While the hard drive is off, turn on your console.

3. If there is no red light, reattach the hard drive to the console and restart. If there is no red light when the hard drive is removed, you will need a new hard drive. If there is a red light, then...

4. Disconnect any USB flash drives or any memory units attached to your console. Restart your console. If there is still a red light, you console needs to be repaired.

Hope this helps!
