Is it a 2 rapid flashes, then a brief pause with the light off, then 2 rapid flashes, brief pause with the light off, repeating cycle? Was this a new or used console you purchased?
It’s a repeating cycle, i bought this xbox renewed. I’m probably going to return it.
I know it's going to be repeating, but I meant are the flashes 2 rapid flashes close to each other with a brief pause before the repeating cycle, or what pattern is the button flashing? (And is this the button on the console or the controller actually)?
It’s just constant flashing with no pauses in between. And it’s on the Xbox not on the controller. The flashes resemble when you press the sync button on the Xbox when you want to sync a controller to it.
Ok, then yes, agreed that it sounds like you should return it. Doesn't sound like it was renewed correctly.
My buddy told me to hold the ejection button and the Xbox button until I hear two beeps. It ended up fixing my problem by bringing the pixel quality down on the Xbox. It’s weird but it worked. I don’t know how long it will last until it shuts off again😂. Thank you for your fast responses!
Interesting, that was a video reset that you did there. It may be worth doing a full factory reset to be safe
I ended up doing that twice. I did the one where I erased everything and the one where I kept my account and games. I don’t know why the video reset worked.
Im going to keep it at 720p and see if it will fix it for the long term. Very annoyed the last thing I try fixes it.
