problem with console, not sure what it is
Hi
I've plugged my xbox console back in after not using it for about 3 months, before it was unplugged it worked fine, after connecting it up, when I turn it on it flashes with 4 red lights, I've known this to be a problem with the av cable so Geezah on here kindly sent me one. I recieved it today and connected it up however it has the same problem.
I've noticed the light on the power block is yellow. Does this mean there is a problem with the power block? Is the power block light green normally when the console is turned off or is it even lit up.
If I plug in the power supply the light is yellow, when I connect it to the console it stays yellow.
Does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks for any advice

When the Xbox 360 power supply light is orange or yellow this means there is no problem with your console but the power supply can't supply it with power.
To remedy this problem, first try unplugging the Xbox 360 power supply from the console and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. You'll also want to uplug the Xbox 360 power supply from the power cord.
Wait for about five minutes and then reconnect everything. You might also want to try plugging it into another wall outlet without an extension cord.
If you are still getting an orange or yellow indicator light, then something is at fault with the Xbox 360 power supply. If this is the case, contact the Xbox 360 customer support to get a new one.

My Power Brick light is always Orange, I have a pre HDMI model.
Re: problem with console, not sure what it is
I will try and get another power supply to try it with but like goldberg I cant remember my power supply light ever been green, I always thought it was orange, maybe I just never noticed it and mine is also a pre hdmi model.

You still using the same power block? If not try getting a different voltage one..
Re: problem with console, not sure what it is
Nope, it won't fit.
What's the manufacture date?
Re: problem with console, not sure what it is
sorry for the late reply, was away for the weekend and just got back. Thanks for checking goldberg, must be a problem with my power supply, need to get hold of one to test. I also cant remember mine ever been green but maybe I didnt actually notice it when the box was on :)
