Yes, I understand that, that means that there is an issue with the power supply and it needs to be replaced.

Flashing orange, solid red, or no light: Your power supply may need to be replaced. Try the following solutions:

1. Try plugging your console’s power supply into a different electrical outlet. Do not use a surge protector.
   
   
2. If the power supply light is solid red or flashing orange, unplug the power supply and let it cool for 30 minutes. Then, plug the power supply back into the outlet.
   
   

If your power supply light is still flashing orange, solid red, or unlit, your power supply needs to be replaced.

Is the orange light on the power supply solid?

When the XBox is off, the power supply light is orange. But when the XBox is turned on and working fine, the power supply is lit up with green. If the light is orange, it usually means a hardware problem with the XBox (like a broken disc drive, for example).
Before sending it in for repairs, try step 2 and if you can, step 3 below.

Is the orange light on the power supply flashing?

Step 1: Try plugging the power cable into a different plug socket. If the orange light turns to any other color than green or flashing orange, there is a good chance that your power supply needs replacing.

If the color turns anything other than green, also try this:

Step 2: Turn the XBox off and then unplug all the cables from the power supply starting with the one leading from the plug socket. Let it rest for up to 10 minutes before plugging it back in, making sure that every cable is in place, and
then turn the XBox back on. If still not green, try step 2.

Step 3: If you have access to a second power supply from the same version XBox (for example from a second XBox or a friend), try plugging it in and turning the XBox on. If the XBox comes on without a problem, you will need to buy a replacement
power supply.

If none of this helps, and even the alternative power supply lights up in orange with your XBox but works with its original machine, then your best option is to send it in for repairs. If your XBox is still under warranty the repairs should be free.
