Nintendo Wii Troubleshooting

The ac adapter reset works just as explained above.

The ac adapter reset works just as explained. Be sure to unplug from wall, wait and reconnect.

Had a series of power outages (about 8 in a one hour period) that kept the Wii from turning on. I unplugged the ac adapter from the wall for about 10 minutes and when I plugged it back it, everything came back up like normal.

Thank you so much! We just moved and don't have our dish hooked up yet so we've been watching Netflix through our Wii. It quit working this morning so I just did what you said to do. I unplugged it, waited for a few minutes and plugged it back in directly to the wall instead of the power strip. It works! I can't thank you enough!

The AC adapter reset solved the problem. I never would have thought of that - Thanks!

Our Wii will not read disks. I thought it was just old and died so I bought a replacement console. I hooked it up and the new one will not read disks either. Do you think it is a cable issue? Any other suggestions? When we had our TV hung on the wall about 2 years ago our electrician ran the cables through the wall and everything worked fine. A couple of months ago, it stopped reading disks. Please help.

I have a fairly unique issue I believe. I have a disc drive that doesnt seem to have any power (wont try to load discs or activate laser). My wii is also not syncing with any wiimotes. Is it possible that this is related to a blown fuse or some sort of power failure? I thought that it may be a dead drive motor (to load and unload discs), but now it seems to be a power issue in other areas. The wii still boots up and runs fine. Please lend some advice if you have any.

My qui will not read discs and my mother tried cleaning all of the discs and it didn't work and I may have died or it's just old my sister tried cleaning the dust and that was not it I need help i don't know what to do please help me i don't want my wii do for it's just to young I got it like 3 years ago? But please help me. Thank You

The ac adapter reset works just as explained above. Thank you!

The wii will make it to the select language screen, but then I cannot get it to go to confirm to move on.

Hi I've had my wii for a few years now and I still enjoy playing on it when it actually works, the wii will turn on but it doesn't show up on the tv screen, and whenit does it sometimes messes up and changes color or turns off completely. The connection to the tv is okay, I've already checked it, but I would like to play on it again and it just won't come up on the tv for me to do so. What should I do about this??

Jeez, the power adapter reset worked just like it says, above. Wow, after all this time.......July 20, 2017. Burma Shave

my wii sometimes makes the screen get brighter and I don't know why. any help? (I also use a really old tv that is a box shape)

What should I do when my wii won't turn on, the white box. It's plugged in and everything is in it's correct spot. It turned off last night and won't turn back on.

I bought super smash bros for the wii and it says I need an original wii controller but I’ve played it at my friends without one and I can’t play it without going and buying one

I've been having trouble the power will turn on but it's a black screen and we bought it offline and they said it's been is easy to get onto you but as soon as we got it it won't do anything and it won't be in sync with a controller

My console can accept the Wii Fit disc up to the very first screen but when I clicked START, the screen just went black (with working sound) and has no further message. Wait for minutes and still no display… until everything went quiet as there has no activation… I tried to clean the lense with no result. Otherwise, the console can read other discs without problem.

I really want to play my favourite Wii Fit, please can anyone help?

My Wii says, “An error has occurred. Press the eject button, remove the game disc, and turn the power off. Please read the Wii Operations Manual for more information.” I have tried all that and turning the entire television off, and unplugging the Wii. Nothing is working. What happened?

all parts are working . the sensor bar is also working and i had put new batteries in the remote . but yet the sensor bar is not receiving signals from the remote

I have an issue with wii's sound output. Games sound perfect through the component cables, but when I start up the console there is something like a… heartbeat or pulsing sound coming from either my tv, or soundbar. I've tried different cables and different connection methods and it has to be the console.

This pulse goes away after about a minute of loud gameplay, but if I just leave it in Wii's home screen it won't. Is this normal for the Wii?

I have a problem with the Wii console,it happened just last night when I wanted to put Super Mario Sunshine on the Wii,the screen suddenly got switched off and the red light showed up on the Wii console. Now,the screen won't show up whenever I press the power button. Can someone please help me solve this problem?

My Wii is receiving power (when plugged it the power button glows red to show that it is off), but it won’t turn on. I’ve tried using the power button on the console and on the remotes, but it just won’t turn on. Any idea how to fix that??

My wii would not turn on. So I bought a new cord. Now everything is in black and white.

I have a Wii that just won’t cooperate with me. It always make a clicking noise when i insert a disk, the cursor won’t show up on the screen so i have to use a DJ Hero turntable, and half of my games don’t read, not even my newest game. What’s wrong with it?

My console just blinks red and the game pad won't connect. The console won't turn on

I have 2 wii units same unit. Mine works ok but my friends lights up red on the top light but when I turn the power on it flashes orange then shuts off. Anyone had this problem? Russ

Connected 110 v to 220v power sorce

Everything is synced but little hand doesn't come on screen. Help

My wii is telling me that it’s unable to read the disc and that I should check the wii operations manual for help troubleshooting but I already friend cleaning the laser lens in the wii and I really want to play on my wii

I've tried the AC adapter reset and my Wii turned on for a minute then shut down again and hasn't turned on for almost a day. The AC adapter hasn't been plugged in to either the wall nor the console for almost a day yet the problem continues. Help please. Is there a way I can get the game stuck inside. Also the console has a red light.

For some reason when I try to play wii sports it says unable to read disk and I was wondering is there anyway I could fix this without taking my wii apart?

wii turns off and the button becomes yellow .What will I do ?

Wii remotes synced 3 of them but cursor goes in and out, got it to show up and played 1 game and cant get cursor to come back. Changed sensor but new one could be damaged as it was in package in storage for a while. What to do next

Pulls up language screen but unable to select and confirm. Frozen

I have a hum bar on my screen rolling from the bottom to the top. Is this a bad A/C power adapter? Or is this a internal issue with the console?

My Wii will load but the remotes won’t activate anything on the homescreen?

Why is Wii black and with

disconnecting for 2 minutes AC adapter did the job for me, thanks!

The AC Adapter worked as explained. THANK YOU. I was about to trash it. I had unplugged it and plugged it back in (right away). I had powered it off and on a few times; I had held the power button on for 8 seconds. I had held Synch button for 8 seconds. I plugged it in to another outlet. Nothing worked. And then I read this article. The 2 minute unplugged at both ends worked. Again, Thank you.

My Wii will load but turns the screen really bright and can not see pictures clearly done reset and no luck anyone else had this issue.

my wii won’t connect to my tv

my wii console looks black and white on samsun 4k tv what can I do

Getting sound but no picture.

I completed the power supply reset procedure. The red power light does come on but as soon as i press the power button to start the Wii, the unit powers completely off and must be reset again. It does not sound like the motor is active, but the blue light around the disk slot does light up for a split second before shutting off.

I have kids, so i wonder if something is jammed in the disk slot.

What do you think?

All my discs work except SMG2.And their is no scratches on the disc and the Wii won’t read it.Idk why?Can someone help?Message me at artin1055@students.alsiraat.vic.edu.au

Hi I'm having trouble with my remotes have followed the above instructions but still not working please help

Hi Everyone.

I just bought a Nintendo WII and connected directly to the TV with 3RCA outputs. First it shows everything in black and white. After a while, a day later it turns to color picture and it works quite well. I wanted to give a try with an AV2HDMI converter but the picture is half color half black and white and full of stripes. Changed back for simple 3RCA output and get the black and white picture again. What happen between and what is the root of this problem?

If someone can reach me directly, ilozzoli30@gmail.com

Thanks for your help!

I have a problem because I'm writing that I can't read the disk in Wii

The little light by the power button isn't on and it wont work. Got any ideas?

I powered on my wii, with everything connected. But, the screen was just on “No signal”. I tried switching, but everything was grayed out. Is it with my cables?

I just got my Wii out of my closet for the first time in a while and I decided to plug it up. Everything seemed to be working. I just didn’t have any games. I bought Wii Sports Resort and I tried to put it in but everytime it did it either said it couldn’t read the disc or it asked me to eject the disk and turn off my console. I tried unplugging it for 10 minutes but it just did the same thing. Someone please help.

Bought a new Wii games - We Love Golf and when inserted into console, the Menu comes up for 10 seconds and then says there is an error, turn off console and try again, but same error message comes up. Anything I can do?

What do you do when you turn on your original wii system and one second later it shuts off?

Yah ! Fixed my Wii after a month of not working. Tried the first set and found someone had remove the power cable :(

Hope to get a response, thou im seeing all from the past years not getting one. My disc drive accepts the discs bit then comes a big and loud beep, and then the disc just stays put, it never gets to spin.

When i enter the pin giving online for the parental control reset it gives me the error message that the pin is incorrect. What should i do .

I bought new used games for the wii and it's not reading the disk and im t old to look at the menu for troubleshooting. I've tried resetting and even unplugging but nothings working!

Finally got the controllers to sync but arrow no arrow never shows up on screen no matter what I do… Wondering if that means I need a new sensor bar.

When I turn it on, everything is working, but I don't see the screen. The AC adapter is working, the fan is working, the motherboard is working, and my controller is working. I don't know what to do.

Resetting adapter didn’t work which makes me think that the adapter is the problem

Do I need to buy a new one?

so, when I turn on my wii, it says that the controller is connected. But when I get to the home menu… It won’t do anything. Any way to fix this? I replaced the batterys of the controller

wii game on TV jumpy and has horizontal lines.

Will not allow me to select language on my wii. But my controller is working properly and shows a red frame on the English option. Have already tried resetting to no avail.

I don't know if there is still someone here, but I need help with my wii.

Yesterday I connected it to internet (something that I never did before) and than I did an update that was available. In 10 years it never had any other updates..

After that, I decided to play Mario Kart, that always worked in this years, but it doesn't open (?) anymore. It shows a black screen and I can't do anything, I can't even turn of the wii.

What can I do?

My Wii will be turned on but the screen is black
