Randomly turning on

So, you do not have any other controller that you know of? When you go to bed take the batteries out of all of your controllers. If this does not work that night, try taking the batteries out of every remote in your house that you can think of. If this still
does not work, it might be your Xbox that is malfunctioning. It is vary unlikely that someone else is using a controller and messing with yours because you have to sinc them to the Xbox.

Does this solve your problem? Yes | No

Hey there Buir!

When was the last time you wiped your console down? Go ahead and unplug your console and then spray a soft, clean cloth with a household cleaner and wipe down your console on all sides. Be sure that there's no dust or fingerprints or anything over the power
button. Then go ahead and plug your console back in, being sure to use a wall outlet (not a surge protector or power strip), and see if the issue persists. If so, is your console currently set to instant-on mode? If it is, you'll want to swap it over to

energy-saver mode. If after all that your console still decides it doesn't like to sleep, go ahead and try

factory resetting it. You can keep your games and apps so you won't have to reinstall everything.

Keep us posted!

Well it randomly turns on now too.

Ok, does it turn on only when your TV is on? Or does it randomly turn on anytime?

I just tried all of those steps and it's still doing it. Not sure if it's an issue with my electricity or the xbox :/ xbox luckily still works fine, it just randomly turns on.
