Chosen Solution
Two weeks ago, I spilled 2/3 of a cup of washing up liquid into the the top fan of my Xbox One (don’t ask how). Since than I have contacted Xbox Support and have read multiple forum threads saying you should let nature take its course (basically wait and see). Things I have tried: The rice thing Putting it under a fan for 24 hours Tilting it to the left for 18 hours Although many recommend to teardown your console and clean it from the inside, I personally do not wish to take apart anything like this, and yes I can go to Repair Shops to fix it, but you see I am trying my absolute best not to spend any money because of Project Scorpio (ofcourse). Please any advice or tips on how to fix my Xbox One will be most indeed helpful. If you wish to recommend me Repair Shops; make sure their in Birmingham, United Kingdom. Thanks.
@zohaibkeyani first off “The rice thing” absolutely bogus. Does not do anything other than give you a false sense of doing something. Forget the rice altogether. You will have to disassemble your xbox and clean it properly. Use these guides to work on it. Then clean your parts with high grade (90%+) isopropyl alcohol. That means all parts. Once done reassemble and evaluate for any failures. For further help with this I’d suggest you contact the console guru on here. Yes we all like to spend as little money as possible, but if you do not fix this now it will cost you much more later on.
My son spilled a good amount of water onto his. It would turn on then turn right back off at first. I unplugged it shook it out then used the blow dryer on it for about 15 minutes rotating between warm and cool air. Hope this helps, the blow dryer suggestion saved his and I’m sure it will help yours too, if it doesn’t let it dry out for a couple more days and try again before buying a new one.
I shut it off blowed in it put it in rice left in under a fan tilted it but it will turn on and then turn off
I took apart my Xbox one and wiped it down bc it was very dusty. The inside did not look like it had any type of water damage, but ever since my son spilled water on it it hasn’t worked. Since I have taken it apart, and done all that what would be something else I could try? If anything.
All u guys need to answer on question Was it on when u spilled or have u turned it on since u spilled if so good luck if no fo the blow-dryer thing it works I’m fact Everytime it rains outside I have to pull the cover of my Xbox one and blow dry it on hot for 2 minutes then it works ….done this maybe 20+ times so far so good….. I’m sure this is in the PCB or a part that Microsoft put on to do this very thing so u would take it to get fixed and spend money….I wish someone would reverse engineer it and figure out a permanent fix Steyr223

My little brother spilled water in the top of my xbox i shook some of the water out then tilt it over and let it drain it’s been in the same spot for 3days and i took it to try and see if it would turn on again and it started making this chirping sound from the back where the power plug is and i dont know what that means…or what to do about it
Since I already answered this question I thought all these new questions were just getting posted to my email for whatever reason I’m looking for the answer I don’t see it so here’s the answer take your Xbox apart take a hairdryer don’t put it on extremely hot you’ll burn something up, blow dry it for 5 minutes put it back together it’ll work Since I live in my vehicle in California ,I have to do this maybe twice a month due to moisture build up in the rainy season As far as taking your Xbox part just take the outside cover off so you can see the board that’s all you have to do

So, my son broke his xbox by spilling milk on the top. I did the tilt thing or wiped it down when it happened. It has now been 5 months later and it is still sitting here. Is it a lost or is it possible to get it fixed?
