Xbox 360 s power brick red light - only when loading disc??

Here are a couple trouble shooting steps (which I read you have done extensive research on). If these do not work. Then follow the link, because your Power Supply is failing.

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.

I've got this problem : my power supply turns red about 30 minutes-1 hour after the ignition of the console.

On the support microsoft they say cool block 30 min I do several times, but I feel that its only keeps longer lit the console because if I unplug the console just after the forced extinction ben and she holds of 10-15 min.

So is the block or console is defective?

Sorry but I use google translation beacause i'm french

Hello TheSliceHouse! What model Xbox 360 do you have? If it is the Original Xbox 360 and it overheats the ring of light should flash 2 red lights like this






If you are getting one or more flashing red lights on the console, please use the

Flashing Lights Wizard.



If it's the New model Xbox 360 S it should flash the center light on the power button red.



From what the issue sounds like, I believe you are having an issue with the power brick overheating. When the power brick is in standby mode (console is powered off) the light on the power brick should be orange. When the console is powered up normally the
light on the power brick should be Green. If there is a fault in the power brick ( when the xbox just turns off on it's own with no warning) the light on the power brick should turn red.



Make sure the power brick is in an open area where the vents are not obstructed as there is a fan inside to keep it cool.



Play the console until it shuts off than take a look at the light on the power brick. If it's anything other than green or orange there is an issue with the power brick and you should contact Xbox Customer support for a replacement.

Since you say you have a "thick black Xbox", the instructions from napalm 31337's link won't help, as they are only for the S and E model of the Xbox 360, not your "thick" Xbox 360.

In order to get a disc out of the original Xbox 360, you need to remove the faceplate. Instructions for the faceplate are here: https://support-origin.xbox.com/xbox-360/accessories/faceplate

The instructions on manually ejecting a disc from an original Xbox 360 console are here: https://support-origin.xbox.com/xbox-360/console/manually-eject-disc (you
need to scroll to the very bottom of the page).

As for your power issue:

Please check the LED on the power supply brick. If the console is off, you should see an orange/amber light. With the console turned on, you should see a green light.

If anything is broken, it should show a red light.

ok. i'll try that when i come back home.
