  1. Xbox one turns off as if on/off button has been pressed


    My xbox is well ventilated. It's the forza console, so it makes a car noise when you press the on/off button. I can turn it on with either the controller, inserting a disk, or the button itself, and within a minute the car sound will play again as
    if I have pressed the on/off button an it shuts down. Also if left unchecked it will sometimes make the noise by itself while it is off, but not always turn on. This happened last month and I just turned it on one day and it worked fine, and has consistently
    for the last two weeks, but has started again. Has this happened to anyone else?

    Xone turns itself off randomly, as if home button has been pressed.

    Hey there TherealBATMAN57!

    Sorry t hear you're having trouble. Please make sure not to bump older threads, as this thread was created in July. Make sure your Xbox One is plugged directly into a wall outlet rather an a power strip. If you're still having trouble with this, please create
    a new thread and let us know. Thanks!

  3. Xone turns itself off randomly, as if home button has been pressed.

    I've tried these things. My xbox is well ventilated. It's the forza console, so it makes a car noise when you press the on/off button. I can turn it on with either the controller, inserting a disk, or the button itself, and within a minute the car sound
    will play again as if I have pressed the on/off button an it shuts down. Also if left unchecked it will sometimes make the noise by itself while it is off, but not always turn on. This happened last month and I just turned it on one day and it worked fine,

  4. Xbox one turns off as if on/off button has been pressed

    According to
    this article
    , the Xbox One may unexpectedly shut down if:

    • You have a setting in the system power-saving settings for it to turn off automatically.
    • The console is overheating.
    • The power supply brick is becoming faulty.
    Let's first disable the auto-off setting (see Solution #3 in the article) to make sure the system isn't shutting down on you while you're playing. Could be a fluke or bug in that setting that's messing with your console's power all willy-nilly, who knows?

    If it is well-ventilated as you say, see if you can clean dust off the console that might be blocking the cooling vents. Otherwise, we can rule out overheating.

    If it's still shutting down, then chances are the power supply is going faulty on you. You will have to
    request a repair.

    Hope this helps!

    XBOX ONE turns on my TV but after a couple of seconds it turns off again

    It's also been happening to me. I say "xbox on" and everything turns on (tv/receiver) then the Xbox One turns itself off. repeating "xbox on" does nothing. trying to turn the X1 via the controller did nothing. had to press the button on the box itself
    for it to boot up....which then turned off my tv and receiver. This has happened twice (just now and yesterday).

    The graphic could be turned off. It's a simple one button press to turn it off.

    Load up your tunes and press the LB and RB buttons and see if it changes.
