Does your Xbox One S give you a notification about insufficient ventilation and then shuts itself down?
I have a possible solution for you.

The reason it was shutting down was because the fan had suffered an impact which pushed the fan down onto the heat sink. I carefully pulled the fan upwards, off of the heat sink while also holding down on the heat sink as to not pull everything off of the board. This freed the fan. The machine worked fine for about 3 months then the fan failed completely. I ended up buying a replacement fan. They clip onto the heat sink so its not very difficult to replace.
