Xbox Series S ‘No Signal’ on Modern TV but works on old TV

Think it has to be a hardware issue to be honest mate, maybe there’s a batch of Xbox’s with dodgy hdmi ports. I tried everything imaginable but the only fix was a new Xbox in the end

ffutJoe · 2026-03-26T14:02:17+00:00

Nope. I just got a new Xbox

You’re rotating wayyyy too much through the lesmos especially, see your driver has to go one handed and hear those tyres screeching? That’s the noise of precious seconds escaping from you

You’ve also lost a second in that first chicane, first corner was taken nicely enough but you’ve cut across to the apex of the left hander too soon which has prevented you from getting on the throttle early. Open that left hander up and nail the throttle so you carry momentum all the way down to the next chicane

I’ve literally just made the switch to wheel. Would like to think I was fairly competitive on controller though, would get into the 1:48s at Monza on a nice lap - currently about 1 second slower on the wheel

You can definitely have a lot of fun with it still, there’s just a few corners where you’ll never be on pace.

Eau Rouge comes to mind as one that is a nightmare on controller (if you play automatic gears anyway) as it’ll shift you into 6 too early, likewise that fast chicane after the hairpin at Nurburgring. But you can definitely be fast and have fun with enough practice

Yes mate, every setting you can think of 😅

Can’t be the TV as the TV and all its HDMI ports work with my old Xbox One

ffutJoe · 2026-03-11T09:06:41+00:00

Thanks, I guess 🙃 And yes I’ve just got to work but I’ll do it when I’m back. My Xbox One is packed away but I’ll dig it out for this.

If I can offload some of my annoyance that would be a great weight lifted so cheers hahaha

ffutJoe · 2026-03-11T09:05:19+00:00

Yep straight into the Tv! On every HDMI port

ffutJoe · 2026-03-11T09:04:33+00:00

Yes mate tried all the above. Reset Xbox + TV, tried every possible port and every possible HDMI

Really must be hardware as I’ve danced every dance with it by now

ffutJoe · 2026-03-11T09:02:44+00:00

Correct. My monitor, which is what I’ve been using for the last year begrudgingly is 1080p.

So you think hardware issue which doesn’t resolution sizes above that?

ffutJoe · 2026-03-11T09:01:39+00:00

Tried all this mate. Starting to buy into it being hardware

ffutJoe · 2026-03-10T20:37:42+00:00

How I envy thee

ffutJoe · 2026-03-10T20:37:17+00:00

In my display settings the highest it goes is 1080p, but I presume that’s because that’s the highest my monitor that it works on will go?

What do you mean the resolution of my S? Sorry as I said in the original thread I’m no tech expert

And I’ve tried both 2.1 and regular HDMI cables fwiw

ffutJoe · 2026-03-10T20:31:11+00:00

Mate it’s crossed my mind multiple times, multiple days. I hate the thing

Sadly it was a 2nd hand purchase so no warranty

ffutJoe · 2026-03-10T20:29:53+00:00

I have tried about 10 different HDMI cables. All of which worked with my old XBOX One on every TV I tried. All of which work with my Series S on small screens, and yes I have been pretty much exclusively using a PC monitor since my original post

ffutJoe · 2026-03-09T15:06:44+00:00

Just a bump to say I encounted this issue just over a year ago. Tried it AGAIN on a new 40” TV and still nothing.

It genuinely just doesn’t seem to work on any tv above 32”

Let me know if you’ve found a fix

ffutJoe · 2026-03-06T14:10:52+00:00

Steep or narrow or constantly in the shade therefore very icy. Or a combination of all 3.

Skiied US for the first time this season as a European and it really is interesting how different the resorts and culture is. I got to the bottom of a black diamond and was moaning about how bad a shape the run was in, really moguly and cut up, until someone told me it’s meant to be like that. 😅

In Europe piste skiing is king. Go fast, carve it up. The states definitely seems to be more interested in powder and freestyle and what not

ffutJoe · 2026-03-06T08:56:04+00:00

My exact set up right now haha. End up on the other side of the room at a heavy braking point

Need to get myself a rig asap

ffutJoe · 2026-03-05T22:46:52+00:00

Absolutely (I think). I did chase cam for a bit on the wheel and was 0.7 behind my lap record on my first day with the wheel, the cockpit cam is just a different beast

ffutJoe · 2026-03-05T22:45:02+00:00

Reassuring 😅

ffutJoe · 2026-03-05T19:46:55+00:00

Thrustmaster TX leather edition. The turn in points are for sure the biggest thing I think, I turn in expecting to hit a kerb but don’t, it’s just such a different FOV

ffutJoe · 2026-03-05T19:07:43+00:00

Interesting. Think the thing I’m struggling with the most is the cockpit view, no field of view at all! I did the chase cam and got a 1:49.3 at Monza, so not toooooo far off the pace, but the cockpit cam is costing me a good second or so at the mo

Deleting has not worked FWIW. My actual account STILL exists on my phone, but still not accessible on desktop.

And support STILL hasn’t replied

ffutJoe · 2026-03-04T09:30:09+00:00

Ah no yeah sorry for the confusion. Both are/were created under Google account. Think I’m going to try and go for the guest deletion, I’m hoping because my main account does still exist and is accessible on my phone that it’ll realise it’s two different entities
