so the only time my led on my wii come on is when i acturally turn the console on, is there anything i can do to fix it?
Do you mean the blue disc tray light? If so, that's normal (it also comes on when you insert a disc, briefly). The only way it stays on is if the console is turned off and someone sends you a message.
I thought I had the same problem when I got my Wii. Why the hell didn't Nintendo make it so it stays on all the time and maybe blink for messages or something.
Yeah, they show the blue light on in every picture/video of the Wii that makes it look like its always on. I'm not so angry about it but it is misleading.
