    Controller not turning on.


    Its been barely 6 months since I got my Xbox series S, recently my controller disconnected mid match and I at first assumed it was my play and charge battery being low (didn't get the notification but also didn't think about the fact that I would get one anyway) so I went and got 2 AA batteries, nothing so I got my USB C and plugged it in.... still nothing, not even a blinking light or a buzz or noise of any kind. I can't figure out what went wrong, I never took it apart, never used any kind of liquid when cleaning it, have dropped it x2 but from my couch so maybe a foot of the ground and that was in May. I ask reddit and one guy suggested that when I plugged it in it killed the controller and now its just scrap parts but I wanted to ask here in case there's anyone who has an alternative reason to why it won't power on or even a fix for it.

    Controller not turning on.

    Hi Eli! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Are you trying with new batteries or used? As what you mentioned it's usually related to not enough charge on the batteries

    If with new batteries happens you could try updating the controller trough USB

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-ne...

    If that doesn't work means it's a problem with the controller

    If your controller isn’t working and needs replacing, enter the controller’s serial number at the bottom of this page. You can find the serial number inside the battery compartment, below the barcode.

    You say the update failed, but the batteries are good? I believe the controller can only be updated by USB wire. Try connecting the controller to the Xbox via USB, and then try updating it again.

    Hey! I've searched some places and I found this! It happened to me.

    I tried everything, I changed battery, battery and nothing.

    I did the following.

    again plugged control on your Xbox One using the USB cable.

    I turned on the console.

    And let there ... in less than 10minutes control called back. Without taking the cable selected the option to upgrade control and was normal.

    Your control is messed up with the firmware, it will not even connect ... by plugging it on Xbox One, it will try to recognize it and send commands to the cable.

    A big hug
