So I thought my 360 power supply was done for I tried multiple things for about 30 mins then I came across your video and I don't know which step did it but it's working now. You deserve a like good sir.
Just had a similar problem on my Xbox 360 (not slim) ... loud fan noise on startup, but no startup, and a red dot where the green dot should be on the front of the box. Sure enough, the left USB port had a bent pin that was against the inside wall of the port. Grabbed a precision screwdriver, bent the pin away from the side wall and the other pins, plugged the box back in, turned it on, and it started up! Thank you very much for your informative video! :)
After 2 years of not being able to fix mine the stupid problem was that stupid bent usb wires! This is amazing! I fixed mine after 2 years because of this video
Bruh your the best....thanks for the help. i was freaking out lol. the usb port thing help my xbox works now. hopefully you get blessed with a free xbox one x for this.
Yooo thank youuu ! My xbox 360 had a problem but i fix it by watching you. My problem was hdm cable and it was broken or smth . Now I changed my hdm cable and it work i try so many things but hdm new cable was the best option! If you guys have a problem that you turn on your xbox and it show green light but it won’t load you have to do just change hdm cable or some others cables if you try everything besides this .
I checked the usb chords, but hardly gave it a glance...After watching your video...sure enough the protector was out and the pins bent. tweased them straight and all is well! thanks for the post..really helped me out
Just a note of real thanks man...thought I was going to have to replace my sons Xbox just a few weeks from Christmas. Turns out the prongs were bent in the USB port just like you said causing a short.
THANKS BRO! This worked for me. I had to get some tweezers and one of the USB pins in the front was bent down, i got pulled it back up and my slim turned on straight away. THANKS MAN
@@idelhousseabdellah i’m not sure what you’re referring to, but you can get an error code by holding the sync button and then pressing eject four separate times, each press of eject shows you a different number of ring flashes, four lit up is 0, so for mine i got “0-1-0-1”, you can look up the specific error code to see if it helps!
Thank you so much, saved my butt. My daughter had been jamming the controller into the socket and bent up the contacts. This fix saved me so much be use i have a moddded box. Priceless!!!
My issue ended up being the USB ports. My wired controller is evidently too heavy for the sockets to support, so looks like I have to go wireless. Thanks for the video good man.
Thanks so much for this video I had this problem about 3 minutes ago and it worked all I did was took my hard drive out and tried to turn it on and it made noises but didn't show a green light then I put the hard drive back in unplugged it from the wall and plugged it back in and it fixed it so thanks again
hey guys, does anyone know if my power-brick is done for. I was playing the xbox normally, everything fine when suddenly the power in my house went out for like 5 seconds then came back on its own. The xbox entirely shut off, but somehow the power supply ? was still on and running. I unplugged and tried turning everything back on but ever since that happened, whenever i plug in the power box only THAT turns on but not the xbox. Thankfully though i had another power-brick that i use and xbox works fine with it. Is it just the power-brick that fried and needs to be tossed out? Lol
I have the same prob except it wasn't a power outage for me .... I just noticed the power brick was really hot so I unplugged it to cool...now I get the orange light but no power to the box. It's making a weird noise tho and there's a slight flicker in the light....idk
my xbox just made noices and. the green light wont turn on. i tried un pluging it and pluging it back into the outlet and xbox and it wouldnt work. then i pulled out all the chords and blew into the xbox where the usb chords get plugged in the back and it turned on.
Mine has a similar problem. However, I get a green light on my power box, and all I get is the fan turning on on top. I've unplugged everything, and I mean everything and plugged it back in. It's not my HDMI cord. I checked the cord on my pc and it's working just fine. I notice that when I plug in my wired controller I get 4 green rings, but they don't spin and only end up with the 1 that every other controller ends up having. I tried it without the wired controller, same problem. I checked the hard drive as well. I'm taking it to Gamestop tomorrow to see if it's my HDMI port on the 360, and I'm gonna have to resort to using composite cables. My HDMI port may be done. Another key part to the problem could be do to the fact that I've left background downloads enabled. Tonight when my Xbox wouldn't turn on all the way it acted like it was still on. So, this means that because I had enabled background downloads it acted like it either needed to stay on for whatever reason, or it thought it had a download going on. The second thing I haven't mentioned yet is I use a wireless receiver for my headset. I never unplug it, and it uses power from the Xbox EVEN WHEN IT'S TURNED OFF because the power box still gives the Slim a very low state power. I would suggest to anyone reading to disable background downloads, and always unplug any USB cord from your Xbox that uses some type of power. This could have drained power and its lifespan but I COULD BE WRONG. However, ever since I enabled background downloads I started to notice my 360 wouldn't always shut down completely, even though the power was off once or twice every few weeks or month. Hope everyone with this same problem finds a solution. My Xbox may have died. I enjoyed many years of awesome entertainment, but it may be time to move on to an Xbox One :) Good luck to all those looking for a solution!
TO EVERYONE WHO DID ALL THIS AND IT DIDNT WORK,IF U OPEN UR XBOX,LOOK FOR A CHIP THAT SAYS HANA WRITTEN ON IT,FROM THAT POINT,LOOK FOR 2 SOLDER POINTS THAT LOOK LIKE SOMETHING WENT THERE,IT DID,THERE WAS TTHIS SILVER RECTANGLE LOOKING PIECE THAT WENT THERE,FIND ONE OF THEM AND SOLDER IT BACK ON
My Xbox-360 Slim makes the noice when I press the on button but won’t light up. I looked at the hardrive thing and it turns out...there isn’t anything in it. So is that a problem? Btw I had NO idea there was the hardrive thing in the side XD
it worked but when I turned it on it did a loud noise like it was overheating. it sounded like errrrrrrrrrrrr and then it will shut down again but still thx

Mine has that problem but I've checked all the usb ports, none of the pins are bent, I've bought a new power brick, and don't have a hard drive in it, so i don't know what's going on. Anyone got an idea?

This video lead me to find out MY FUCKING HARDDRIVE IS GONE and everyone thinks I took it out and missedplaced it, I Dident Know It Had The Fucking Panel There Until This Afternoon. I dont know who the hell would steal our harddrive and my xbox has been dead for over a year and ive just not got around to it. If its not obvious I'm pretty pissed off because a Fucking Harddrive dose not just disappear.
well my Xbox didn't have enough ventilation so it had this red light.... I unplugged it out the wall and plug it back in, I tried to turn it on but it kept making car crash noises. Then I unplugged it from the back of the Xbox and it turned on
This is why I don't throw away my electronics. My 360 messed up 4 years ago and I didn't know how to fix it until now. Thanks man. You dabess!
So I thought my 360 power supply was done for I tried multiple things for about 30 mins then I came across your video and I don't know which step did it but it's working now. You deserve a like good sir.

GUYS HELP ME MY xbox 360 Slim WONT LOAD! it turns on but then the loading circle keppes on loading for forever!
Someone please tell me what is supposed to be poking up in the little hole in the front
i would use something plastic if you have to bend back those pins. capacitors hold a charge even after unplugged.
I have tried all of that and the usb ports all look fine is there something else that I can try
Mine has that problem but I've checked all the usb ports, none of the pins are bent, I've bought a new power brick, and don't have a hard drive in it, so i don't know what's going on. Anyone got an idea?
Thank you so much! It worked!
What did you do???
+Alfred White ur mum. No jk i did the cable thing. I just unpluged the cable and put it in a different outlet
when i try turn on xbox360 slim wont turn on and only noise when u turn on the button my battery is in orange and i check all my wires and the cable and controllers they no damage when i put everything back on still wont work
Blow in the brick in two of those holes on the side and then smack it a little hard and it should work ( unplug then plug up again )
What i did is apparently i did bad nand flashing and after flashing i removed the power cord than i put it in again and my xbox 360 just like yours beeps but doesn't turn on and the rgh chip inside makes a red light.... If any one knows the problem i would really appreciate it
I like that plan
Hey can you please help me. My power button doesn't work but when I press the eject button it turns on.. what should I do? pls do reply
