#71 Repair of XBox One S Fast Beep On-Beep Off

In this video, I attempt to repair another XBox One S that simply beeps on and beeps right back off.

[@toolsarecool]

Another one back from the dead, nice! I recently bought two myself off of eBay to see how far I can get with them. One only needed a new HDMI port and is working again, the other one is still playing games with me. Beep on-5 seconds-Beep off. All standby voltages are there and all switched voltages come up for 5 seconds (as far as I can tell). So far I found no shorts anywhere (including ethernet and HDMI retimer). The only hint it's giving me is that the fan doesn't even wiggle a bit when the console is turned on (which it does on pretty much all repair videos I've seen). Tested the fan separately and it works fine. It's a fun hunt, although at this point it's looking like donor board territory, assuming this comes down to a southbridge/GPU fault. Keep inspiring me to keep digging! :-)

Just found your channel and subscribed. Really enjoy your videos! The one s is my favorite console to work on. Where can I get that heat sink you are using? Thanks and please keep the videos coming!

[@ToltecMerc]

Welcome! Thanks for joining. That heat sink came off of a scrap PC computer motherboard. I've had it for a while.

[@fredb1130]

Love your video's. Thank You.

[@ToltecMerc]

Glad you like them!

[@highroyds]

Nice fix! Would love to see a repair on the Xbox one original as not many repair those

[@Trucam2020]

[@brianwatson1965]

Excellent once again!!

[@ToltecMerc]

Thank you!

[@constable9793]

Iv'e got 4 of these that do the same thing. I'll try these repairs.

[@ToltecMerc]

Go for it! Schematics are even available!

[@anojenthanikasalam1466]

Great fix. What other issues can cause the same beep on - beep off issue like in this video. TIA

[@ToltecMerc]

I'm not sure. As far as I can determine, if any of the run power rails do not come up in a timely fashion, it shuts back off. Specifically the CPU and memory power rails. I have only recently started working on XBox.

[@Console_Tech]

Another great video thanks.

[@ToltecMerc]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@johncross436]

can i use a dc electronic load to discharge caps in the power supply instead of a capacitor discharge tool - i know you have both but i am just getting started and have a use for a dc electronic load and the 30 dollars for the cap tool is more i could spend on the load if I can just use the dc load -

[@ToltecMerc]

The voltage across the main filter caps can reach 400V. That will exceed the capability of many dc loads. You can use a simple power resistor to discharge if you insulate the leads well. You might google that and see what comes up.

[@NoBody-zh3dd]

I am in the same boat

[@gelecfouad9954]

Good job 👍

[@ToltecMerc]

Thanks 👍

[@sumashamu3759]
