    Xbox Series S won't stay on, it clicks then turns off.


    Hi , so my Series S randomly stopped working. Every time I try to turn it on it'll light up for a second, make a click and turn off. My first thought was cable/powerstrip, so I tried it on it's on socket in the wall, nothing, I tried a new cable, nothing, I bought a PSU and tried that, nothing. I've tried the thing where people say hold sync and power, nothing.

    I've tried leaving everything unplugged for 24 hours, replugging and trying again, nothing. Here is a link to where you can see a video where I recorded the problem https://files.catbox.moe/7po9a1.mp4 and you can see and hear the noise, it almost sounds like it is from the USB corner, but for the life of my I can't figure out what the problem is.

    Thanks

    :)

    Did you not read any of my post? I just said I replaced the power supply, the power supply wasn't the problem. If my console was still in warranty I'd have done that first.
