My boys xbox one is not powering on and the orange light on the power supply is flickering so he replaced the power supply but the xbox is still dead so would anyone know a way of testing the xbox or power supply to see which one is dead.

Buy a another cable and try that or if you have a device in your house that uses the same cable then use that cable.
A few to get you started.
When was the last time he was on it ?
Anything odd happen ?
I take it you've tried it plugged into another wall socket ?
Come back and post to the results.0 -

Sometimes it can be something as simple as the console overheating. If DCFC and Noodles' help still doesn't work (though I should think it would), then try just leaving it in a cool area, clean the fan if you can, then try again.0

Tested the fuse from your mains plug in a working item ?

No I didn't try the cable from the working console into our power brick. I just tried the power lead and power brick from from the working console.
So you used the original mains lead from the wall socket to the power brick, the one which I said could be the issue?
