Basically, the power supply is manufactured in such a way, along with effective built in systems, which helps in the protection of the system, console and the power supply. Therefore, whenever there will be exceedingly high voltage supply or current, then the power supply light will turn into red color and at extreme condition, it will be automatically, turned off.
Now at this point of time, you will be definitely thinking to resolve the issue. Before attempting anything, you must see if the power supply is hot or cool, as the red light can be the result of extremely hot power supply. Once you have come to know that it has become hot, you will have to bring it back to cool condition. You must switch off your system and place the power supply in an airy place. Do not switch on your system, unless or until the red light turns into orange. When the light will start appearing orange in color, then it means the power supply has been cooled down and you can switch on your console.

If you have plugged in the power supply into an extension, then you must check the voltage level and to keep your console at safe side, insert the cable directly into the wall socket. You can also replace the power supply unit or a new cord and if you have the one, you can check out, if it will work well or not. If you will still be unable to get rid of the problem, then it is for sure that the problem is not with the power supply, but is with the console itself.
