Chosen Solution

Yesterday we discovered a leak in my son’s bedroom ceiling which just so happened to be located directly above his xbox (go figure). When lifted it up and tipped it over, water came pouring out! We’ve left it on front of a fan to see if it could dry over night. It’s still under the 1 year warranty but I don’t believe it covers water damage. Is there any way it can still be saved?

That’s very unfortunate. The only way to be sure that the unit is free of any liquid would be to open the xbox. However, this would void the remainder of the warranty. Another method would be placing it near a dehumidifier to draw the moisture out while it is on its side. Again, you still wouldn’t know without opening the xbox. I would wait a few days before trying to turn it on.
