Are you receiving the following error message?

The Kinect Sensor couldn’t start

If you see this error message and the sensor of your console is red, you’ll need to follow the steps bellow.

You have to ensure that the sensor is at room temperature. You need to unplug the sensor and plug it back in again. If the problem exists, you should do it again.

If the Kinect sensor is very cold, you might receive this error message. So, the sensor needs to warm up.

Here is how:

  • First, you need to turn off your Xbox 360 console.
  • You must wait for the Kinect sensor to reach room temperature (approximately 70 °F or 21 °C).
  • Finally, turn your console on to check out whether the problem still exists.


If you cannot solve the problem after performing all above, the sensor should be repaired.
