    Xbox one s cord extremely loose


    My Xbox one s cord is extremely loose. It will barely even plug in. I bought my Xbox one s a few months back and thought nothing of it, but then a friend came over and told me that it should be way tighter. It is loose to the point that if I bump my dresser
    slight my Xbox will turn off. I'm not sure if it is the cord or the Xbox because I bought it brand new from WallMart. Is it possible to get a Xbox one s cord anywhere?

    :)

    Xbox One S power cord incredibly loose

    Hey there The DarkHowling.

    What you're describing certainly isn't normal and if you're hearing electrical sounds we suggest unplugging the console and reaching out to the retailer for an exchange. Really sorry to hear you're dealing with that!

  3. Xbox One S power cord incredibly loose

    so I just got an Xbox one S, and the power cord is so insanely loose that it’s unusable. The cable just lightly sits in the console, so that it just falls out by itself with almost no interference meaning I can’t really use the console.

    And while it is "plugged" in, there are faint electrical sounds (which suggests it’s not connected properly at all.) I’m assuming this is abnormal and a sign of a faulty product right? Anything I can do or am I gonna have to return the whole thing?

    Xbox One S Power Cord Loose?

    I would immediately unplug the cable. If you're seeing sparks, then there is something wrong and removing the power cord is the safest option to avoid a fire hazard.

    Please look at

    As it is a new device it should be covered under warranty and have options for power cord or device replacement depending on where the issue is.

    I haven't seen any sparks, however I've heard noises that sound like sparks - I'm not sure if it's a normal noise and I'm being dumb or if there's something wrong with the console itself as I've never owned an Xbox (or a console) before.

    Thanks for the quick response! I'll take a look at the link you provided.

    Edit: Also turned off the console. Forgot to mention this haha

    Xbox one s loose power cord

    Hi there,

    be sure to check that the input is free from anything and nothing is blocking the option to properly hold the power cable.

    Also double check that the cable isn't damaged, it's a fairly generic cable so you could try switching it for a different one, as long as the specifications are the same.
