Okay so i have an xbox 360 trinity the power supply stays orange when plugged into the console, When i hit power/eject/Remote power the power supply clicks and turns off then back on, Would it be a short in my system or faulty power supply? I do not know anyone near me with a slim to test power supply.

Check the power cords to ensure they're not damaged and inserted properly. Use a multimeter to verify the proper voltage is being put out from the brick. That will answer your question.

retail not modded, and will see about getting a new power supply to test. on power and eject i get beeps. everytime it beeps the light on the power supply goes out then goes back on. everytime it does this it acts as a loss of power. I had a usb remote plugged in to see if it was loosing power and it beeps and resets the power supply because the green light on the usb remote will blink like when u first plug it in with system in standby mode.

The light on the PSU should not go off at all until it has been unplugged for a bit. I've only ever seen orange-stby. Green-on. Red-problem. If the light is going off at some point it sounds like it losing power on the 120v end.
