Xbox One making whirring or static noise

GUNN3R 1999 · Apr 12, 2018

hi guys, sorry if there is already a forum for this but I have been looking everywhere. So I have had my xbox one first gen console from about a year since launch. And only recently it has started making a whirring or static like noise. I know it's probably
the inside fan but I don't no where to go from here. I have try to get help from support but don't have a clue what I'm looking for and on top of this Xbox ambassadors didn t help me that much too. I have read multiple articles stating that microsoft take
full responsibility for the whirring noise and said "they will replace them" but I don't no if this is true. I'm just stuck on what I can do and how to go about it, so hopefully some of you guys could help me out. Thank you

:)

Fan noise on 'new' console

Now it's making a strange whirring noise as well as ticking like a cricket.

Xbox One making strange high pitched noises

I have an Xbox One that is making strange high pitched (beeping sort of, sounds sort of like a malfunctioning fire alarm) noises during an update. I haven't updated nor used the console in a while... I have heard the "high pitched whirring" noises coming
from my Xbox but this sounds different. Is it just my Xbox updating or do I have an issue with it?

Hi there!

For repairs or replacements you would want to
register the console and request a repair.

If you console is still in warranty you will be given that option as well.

If you run into any issues setting that up be sure to reach out to the
chat or phone team!

Edit: I think it is the console and not the game. Also when the console auto turns off, it makes a whirring noise

I just tried to use a couple discs on my xbox one COD bundle and nothing is reading . It makes a slight whirring noise but its not scratching the discs or anything. Crazy to have problems on day 3 of owning the system.

Well, a 'grinding' noise certainly doesn't sound good. However, my Xbox 360 S will make a short, loud whirring sound sometimes, which is perfectly normal.
