Xbox suddenly malfunctioning - powers off after 1 minute without displaying picture

TinyRexRAWRRR · Mar 27, 2021

My Xbox One was working perfectly until yesterday when I powered it on and it didn't start up like normal.

Instead of the loading screen popping up, my TV just displayed "no signal" even though my xbox was powered on and properly connected. Then, the console powered off after 1 minute exactly. Also, I noticed the lights on my controller and external hardrive were flashing, which doesn't usually happen.

I bought my xbox second hand about a year and a half ago, and it has worked perfectly until yesterday. I've tried turning it off and on again, unplugging everything, holding down the power button until it shuts down, and watching the powerbrick light (stays a solid, bright white for 1 minute until the console powers down and it turns orange).

Any ideas how to fix it?

Sounds like the power brick is faulty. You can check by using Reset power supply solution.

I checked to see if the auto off was disabled which it was. The power supply light was displaying a constant green while it was running with a picture and without a picture. When it restarts without a picture or sound it still appears to be otherwise functioning
normally (I can hear the game run if I press A etc). Ive also tried running a different game but it still has the same problem.

Hi,Chris! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

Hmm that is so weird, a new output device should have nothing to do with the software malfunctioning.

Let´s first perform a full power cycle

Full Power Cycle

Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button  on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off.

Once the lights on the front of the console, unplug the power cable from the rear of the console.

Wait at least 1 minute

Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button  on the console or the Xbox button  on your controller.

After that test your console again

I had this exact issue 20 minutes ago.

Turn off the console and remove the power cable for 5 minutes.

Restore power and turn console on with console on/off button NOT with controller button.

After console displays "Who's playing today" turn on your controller and sign in.

Let us know how it goes.

Its definetly not overheating. I left it for a day and then turned it on and it does the same thing
