XBOX One S Unplugged but turning on

DanniFran · Jan 30, 2018

So I’m getting kind of freaked out. I recently bought a Xbox One S. At night I unplug it from the wall outlet because it likes to makes noises similar a hum. There are a few times after I unplug it from the wall around ten minutes or so later that it will
start up or make some noises while it’s STILL UNPLUGGED FROM THE WALL! What does this mean?

Hi

There is nothing to worry about, after the console is turned off and disconnected from the wall outlet it can take a short period of time for the console to use the last of the power.

HI

After switching off and disconnecting the console from a wall outlet it can take a short while for all of the power to dissipate this is normal and there is nothing to worry about.

Try this! 1. Turn off your Xbox using the power button on the console.

2. Once your Xbox has completely powered down, unplug the power cord from the back of the console. Don't simply unplug the cord from the wall's electrical socket — it must be disconnected from your Xbox.

3. Wait for 5 minutes, and then reconnect the power cord to both the Xbox console and the electrical socket.

4. Let another minute pass. If you're using an original Xbox One (as opposed to an Xbox One S or One X), watch for a small white light to appear on the Xbox One's power brick (the rectangular part of the power cord). Once the white light turns orange, you can turn your Xbox One back on. If you're using an Xbox One S or One X, just wait out the minute and turn it on afterwards.

This sounds similar the problem we had with our new xbox one s and Minecraft. I unplugged the power cord from the box for 10 second, plugged it back in, and then things turned on normally.
