  1. Xbox one power brick making noise fan issue.- flip it over


    I saw a few posts on the Xbox fan noise and saw one person [Mod Removed - Please don't post self-repair tips]. I did not feel comfortable like he did in taking the brick apart to vend the fan back, or void my warranty. So instead I flipped
    the brick over and the noise stopped. So yes the fan is loose and is making the noise. I'll probably put cabinet bumpers on the top do it can stay upside down until I get the warranty call done.

    :)

    The reason your Power Brick is making a humming noise, is because inside of the power brick. Is a little fan, this fan keeps your Power Brick at the correct temperature. If your power brick gets hot, the fans RPM will increase and it will make a humming
    sound because your XBOX Power Brick Fan is cooling down your Power Brick. Nothing to worry about unless it's a roaring sound.

    My power brick used to do exactly the same thing, and flipping it worked for me too.

    It only takes the fan to become a little loose or off centre for it to make a noise in use.

  5. Hey, guys! I found you in our Xbox 360 forums. Since this is related to Xbox One, I've moved you over to the Xbox One accessories forums. Please don't post any tips for self-help repair on the forums. I do appreciate you giving a hint to your fellow gamers
    on what they can do in the meantime if they need some time before making that warranty call!

    Since this isn't a support issue, I will go ahead and lock this down. However, I'll verify myself so everyone can see this as a possible solution to any noise issues they may be having with their power supply! Xbox one power brick making noise fan issue.- flip it over :D

    Xbox one power brick

    All Xbox 360 power bricks have fans. They vary in the noise made. I would expect the Xbox One power bricks to be the same. I've had noisy fans in 360 power bricks and I've had silent fans. Luck of the draw.

    If it's really annoying, I would pack the whole thing up and exchange it at your retailer for another unit.

    Clicking noise?

    I have my Xbox One on Standby but I don't hear the clicking noise. I can only hear a high pitched fan noise coming form the power brick.
