"The Kinect Sensor needs to restart" error

Troubleshooting

The Kinect Sensor needs to restart (80000010)

This message means the sensor is busy. You need to wait 90 seconds before turning off your console or playing a game.

If you see this message on screen and you have waited at least 90 seconds:

Turn off your console.
If your sensor is very cold, wait for the sensor to reach room temperature (approximately 70 °F or 21 °C).
Turn the console on, and see if you have the same problem.

If these steps do not solve the problem, please contact Xbox Support. See the Assistance section at the bottom of this page for more information.
