My 32GB Wii U is not turning on properly. It used to work a couple years ago but then it stopped working. When I plugged it in recently it showed me a red light, but then when I turned it on, the blue light was on for a couple of seconds until it blinked once and went to a yellow light, at the same time the disk drive made a whirl sound aswell. When i tried to put a disk in, it seemed to eject normally, and I am also able to use QuickStart to boot up the Wii U, but the Wii U continues to blink blue once then go yellow while the disk drive makes noise, I also have no CFW installed aswell. I did research on the problem but for my certain situation I don’t understand exactly what’s the problem. Would really appreciate it if someone can help me with this problem

Blinking blue once is normal, that is done by boot1.
Yellow means eco mode.
Whap happens if you remove power for a minute and then turn it on with the power button on the console?
