    Xbox making a humming or scratching noise


    I have an Xbox series x digital and when I go to turn on the Xbox it will power on and the light will come on but then I hear what sounds like a buzzing or a scratching noise from within the Xbox. After that the Xbox will usually turn off and won’t turn back on for a couple minutes. Once I am able to get the Xbox on it runs with no issues. So I’m not quite sure what could be causing the issue of it to turn on and then immediately turn back off.

    :)

    Xbox making a humming or scratching noise

    Hey reno, thanks for reaching out for support on the forums. Sorry you're experiencing this noise with your console. I can understand how that's concerning!

    Sounds like a power supply or cooling fan issue. Try plugging it into a different outlet, using a different power cable if available, and checking for dust buildup around the vents. If the noise persists, it might need repair. You can see your options for repair services through Xbox here:

    I hope this helps you! Let me know if you have any other questions, and I'll be here to help you.

    Xbox 360 S humming/ buzzing loudly when playing certain games?!

    They don't do damage if it's just a loud humming noise, that's just the drive running at a high speed. As you are not getting any scratches I can say that for sure.
