    Water damage

    I spilled water on my Xbox and it got in the heatsink and in the power port on the back. The power brick when plugged in turns on its orange light but when I plug it into the Xbox the power brick shuts off. Does anyone know if this is a power brick problem
    or a problem with the console itself?

    By the way it sounds you already plugged it in while it was still wet. You seem to have a very clear picture of the lights on the front and then you asked if you should dry it out. If it had gotten wet and you hadn't already plugged it in frying the console
    I would have suggested removing the outer casing as soon as possible and going in by hand and drying off all excess moisture(visible water drops) along all major connection points. As you have already
    [Mod Removed – Profanity] the console by plugging it in all you can hope to do is to lie to microsoft about what happened or tell the truth and pay the full repair price. Seeing as you've already posted this problem on an official
    forum connected to your official account with microsoft my guess is you're going to have to pay the full price.

    The only way you can know for sure is to have a qualified technician clean it properly and if still not working properly do a proper diagnosis.

    I don't expect the repair center would repair damage from a liquid

    They don't repair it for free, as it wouldn't fall under warranty. But they will repair/replace it.

    I'd play it safe and send it away for repair.

    Hey there Xbox Fans!

    I will be closing this thread as it is linked to a post from a few years ago. You are more than welcomed to start your own, I am pretty sure other gamers would like to bring their ideas into the subject. :)

    Thank you! (ノ≥∇≤)ノ

    In any case itbwould probably be cheaper to buy a replacement than pay for repairs. I have seen them go for 60 CDN these days.

    It doesn't hurt to attempt to dry it out, sometimes (i've had cases) it is a miracle and the water damage doesn't effect the tech. It is true in the future you should probably dry things out before you power them on again, but in this case removing the
    covering, blow drying on a very low heat, and just having it air out could do the trick. Bear in mind though read warranty instructions first, sometimes removing or fiddling with the console could cause the warranty to become null.
