Xbob One X overheating

Hi,

Before you decide to send your console in for a repair, I would recommend trying this solution first.

If you see a message that says your Xbox One is getting improper ventilation, or if the console is hot to the touch, follow these steps:

1. Turn off the console.
2. Wait at least one hour.
3. Move the console to a well-ventilated spot.
4. Turn on the console.

Important Make sure your console is in a cool, well-ventilated place. Remove any objects on, under, or right next to the console. For more info, see How
to position and ventilate your Xbox One console.

After you’ve registered your device, follow these steps:

1. Sign in to the Device servicespage with your Microsoft account credentials.
2. Select the device that you want repaired.
3. Follow the onscreen steps to complete your service order request.

After Device services receives your submission, they’ll send you a service order number and an order confirmation email that includes delivery or drop-off instructions.

Send in your device as soon as possible. If you don’t ship within 30 days of your request, your service order will be cancelled and the delivery label will no longer be valid. In countries or regions that offer a drop-off exchange, you must go to
the drop-off centre within 7 days from the date you created the order.

If after 24 hours you haven't received a confirmation email, check your email's junk folder or spam filter. If you don't find the email in junk or spam, contact Xbox Support.

If you receive a message that your phone number or email address is invalid, go to Change the email address or phone number for your Microsoft account to update your account contact info.

Hello @SgtAIMBOT, I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support! We understand that you are facing issues with your console. But don't worry, I'm here to help. Here are some tips to prevent your console from over heating:

• Make sure that you place your Xbox Series X|S console on a stable surface that is well-ventilated, relatively cool, and away from direct heat sources. Don't put other objects on, under, or right next to the console.
  
• Proper ventilation is important to prevent overheating. Be sure that your console has a minimum of 4-6 inches of clearance on all sides.
  
• Do not place your console inside an enclosed cabinet. Make sure that none of the console’s vents are blocked.
