Wii will not turn on or boot
Game console is not turning on.
AC adapter reset
Most power issues with the Wii can be fixed by resetting the AC adapter. Unplug the AC adapter from both the outlet and the console and let it sit for at least 2 minutes. Plug both ends back in, making sure that the adapter is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector or power strip.
Bad power supply
The power supply to your Wii could have gone bad, which would keep the console from receiving power. Connect a known working power supply to your console. If it works with the new power supply, then your power supply has gone bad and needs to be replaced.
Bad wall outlet
It is possible that the outlet the console is plugged into is bad. Plug another device such as a lamp into it to check it. Also, be sure that the outlet is not controlled by a wall switch. If it is, make sure that the switch is on.
Bad Bluetooth board
A common source of failures in the Nintendo Wii is the Bluetooth board. If it and the Wi-Fi module are not fully functional and properly attached to the motherboard, the system will not boot.
Try reseating both the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi boards. If possible, try swapping the Bluetooth module with a known working one to determine if that is the cause.
Bad motherboard
If the power supply and wireless boards are fine, then the problem is likely the motherboard. Replace the motherboard with a new one.

Wii suddenly turns off during use
Your console unexpectedly turns off in the middle of gameplay
AC adapter reset
Most power issues with the Wii can be fixed by resetting the AC adapter. Unplug the AC adapter from both the outlet and the console and let it sit for at least 2 minutes. Plug both ends back in, making sure that the adapter is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector or power strip.
Bad third party accessory
An accessory of low manufacturing quality may cause damage to the console. If you have any accessories connected to your Wii when it unexpectedly shuts off, unplug the accessory and follow the above instructions to reset the AC adapter.
Lack of ventilation
The Wii shuts down if a lack of ventilation causes the system to overheat. Check the vents on the back of the console for a build-up of dust and debris. If there is a lot of dust, use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove the dust. Place your hand behind the Wii while it is powered on and make sure the fan is blowing air; otherwise, you should replace the fan.
Wii gets hot while in standby
Some consoles tend to get hot when in standby mode (yellow power LED) with WiiConnect24 enabled. This occurs because much of the Wii's hardware is powered on, but the fan is not powered on. If this is of concern, disable WiiConnect24 in Standby Mode in the Wii Settings menu.
Wii will not take discs
Console turns on but the DVD drive will not spin or accept discs
Bad cable connection
If your DVD drive doesn't turn on when the console is started, it could be a connection issue. The DVD drive is connected to the motherboard by a 12-pin power connector and a ZIF data cable. Remove the DVD drive and check both of the connections to the drive. If they are fine, you may also have to access the motherboard to check the connections from the cables to the board.
Bad DVD drive board
If all of the connections to the DVD drive are secure, then it is possible that the board on the DVD drive has a short in it or a blown surface-mount fuse. Remove the DVD drive and replace it with a new one to see if that works. If it does, you can either replace the entire drive, or try to find a replacement board. Replacing the board will be less expensive, but will require soldering.
Bad motherboard
If the cables and the drive are not the problem that cause the DVD drive not to turn on, then it may be a bad motherboard. It is difficult to test this without obtaining a new motherboard or testing your DVD drive on a known working console. If the drive still works on another board, then you will have to replace the motherboard.
DVD drive will not read discs
The drive takes discs, but does not read them
Bad data cable
If the disc is spinning in the DVD drive, but the console can't read it, then there may be a bad connection with the data cable. The cable is a ZIF ribbon cable that goes from the DVD drive to the mother board. First, remove the DVD drive to check the connection there. If it's fine, you'll have to access the connection on the motherboard to make sure it is also secure. At this point, if the connections are fine, you might also want to try a different data cable, though it is not likely that the cable is the problem unless there is obvious damage to it.
Bad laser lens
If the Wii takes discs, but cannot read them, then there is likely a problem with the laser lens in the DVD drive. Though it is possible to just replace the laser, it is easier and more reliable to replace the DVD drive.
Thermal issues
If your Wii is very warm to the touch, this can cause disk read errors. If this is the case, then completely shut down the Wii (red LED) and allow it to cool down, and then try again.
Wii remote is not recognized by console
Wii remote and console are not connected
Wii remote has lost its sync
It is possible that your Wii remote has "lost" its sync. You can clear all previous synced Wii remotes with your console and reconnect the ones you are using. Power off the console and unplug the power cord for a few seconds. Plug the power cord back in and turn the Wii back on. At the "Health and Safety" screen, open the small door on the faceplate of the console. Hold the red sync button for at least 15 seconds. All previous syncs have been removed from your console at this point. This process does not need to be repeated to re-sync each remote.
Take the first Wii remote you wish to sync and remove the door to the battery compartment. Press and release the red sync button near the batteries. Quickly press and release the red sync button on the console. The lights on the remote will flash and then illuminate the light that corresponds to that remote's position (1, 2, 3, or 4). Repeat this process for each Wii remote in any desired order.
Wii is making a loud noise while on
Bad fan
As the console ages, the fan may become clogged or eventually fail, causing the console to overheat, which could lead to much more serious damage to the device. Remove the fan to clean it or replace it with a new one.
Bad drive
If the noise only happens when there is a disc inserted in the drive, the drive might be failing. If it bothers you, you will need to replace the DVD drive.

Had a problem with the Wii remotes. Following the instructions above the problem was resolved. Thank you.
Jim Jensen - Reply
I have another solution. My Wii would not read discs (and gave me a few error messages). I tried the Wii disc cleaning solution and making sure the games were clean, but neither worked. I also tried all of the other troubleshooting solutions, and none worked.
When I looked at the back of the Wii, I noticed a few vents and what looked kind of like a fan. Blowing on it, a bunch of dust came out. I blew on it a few more times until no more dust came out. And the next thing I knew, the Wii worked! Maybe it was clogged with dust? Regardless, this simple solution worked for me.

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!

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.
MelissaJ - Reply
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.

2 weeks ago my classic wii came on and worked fine. Now the hdtv does not get a signal from console. My HDTV will automatically enable the input source when the input is turned on. TV recognizes blu ray as usual, but will not recognize wii. Also wii will not turn off using power button. I can hold power for 10 seconds and it will go off. I have unplugged all cords from wii and unplugged power from wall outlet. Allowed to sit for about an hour. Reconnected everything and tv still cannot see it. I am using the red white yellow cables - nothing had changed with hook ups since last good working day. Also used different red white yellow cable and no go. Took console to old fashioned tv and connected it and it would not display on the old tv either using the correct input source. I just recently purchased a bunch of wii games... bummed.

My WiiU wasn't used for a couple months and when I got back, all of the sudden the console would power ON, and I could hear the disc spinning up (even though no disc is in there) and it seems like it changes the resolution to my TVs (tried multiple TVs/monitors, tried known-working HDMI and POWER cables as well) but even though the res. seems to change on the TV, the screen stays COMPLETELY BLANK. I've tried everything. To make matters more difficult, the WiiU gamepad was being used on my roommates system last, so it is not synced up to my WiiU so I have no idea how the WiiU Gamepad is acting with this whole fiasco. Appx 2 years ago, we had to send in our WiiU because it froze on the WiiU/Nintendo splash/loading screen after we started playing the WiiU version of Smash Bros. Apparently, this was a known issue and Nintendo had us send it in and repaired the console for somewhere around $150.00 (I could be wrong on that but I'm pretty sure that was the amount.) Does anyone have any advice for me on how to fix?

I found a solution ( it MAY be temporary, or need to be done again). Some of the problems here are very close to the one I had.
Our electrical system was turned off a few times; electrical work was being done in the house. Each time, the Wii had been OFF, but with the circuit back up, the Wii could not turn on successfully. I unplugged the AC converter (at both ends) and left it disconnected well over 2 minutes). No luck. The console appeared to start up, but the first on screen images were scratchy and go off and on (black screen) finally disappearing and the TV stating “NO SIGNAL”. I had been turning the Wii off, and trying again later. What surprisingly worked (Twice. The house elec. work happened over a few days) was after I gave up! and happened to walk away and left the Wii still turned ON. With no image on the screen during all that time, I finally came back and saw that the console had turned itself OFF! Upon turning it back on with the remote, it started up the normal way, and worked fine!

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?

Your disc is likely scratched there so severely that it can't read anything from that section. I've got this with Wii Sports resort, anything to do with Wakeboarding produces that because there is a huge scratch in the disc which is where I presume that data is stored. No fix for this one sadly.

Sorry, my wii has the problem It does not show Press A to continue but the solution that you mark does not work since the wii does not have any input for cards of this style, what other recommendation could you give me

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?

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.

Buongiorno, la mia Wii si accende e visualizza correttamente il menu iniziale con la dicitura premere il tasto A… premendo il tasto corrispondente dal controller non succede nulla e non compare la manina indicatore del controller. Random si riesce ad accedere al menu del gioco inserito ma a quel punto la schermata sfarfalla e non si riesce ne a giocare ne a tornare al menu principale. Ho provato a resettare la consolle e a reimpostare i due controller ma nulla di fatto!!!
Sapete aiutarmi?
Grazie mille

Potresti avere un problema col sensore, prova a vedere se è stato danneggiato oppure controlla i cavi collegati alla Wii

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?
