    Controller not working while plugged in and on


    So this morning I noticed my controller wouldn’t respond at all while it was plugged in so I unplugged it and did it again and it was fine. then I was playing fc24 and I noticed the same problem again, I did the same again and it only lasted a few minutes before not responding again, I checked the forums and it said to soft reset the console, which I have just done it worked for about 5 minutes and then doesn’t work again, I’ve updated the controller and the system and it still isn’t working, every workaround I’ve found on here seems to not work. The controller light is on as it’s plugged in but no response from the Xbox.

    :)

    That seems to have fixed it but I’ll give it a few days and see if the issue returns. Thank you :]

    Hi MUTELEON360, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Have you trying resetting your controller pairing?

    Does this also happen when connected via a USB cable?

    To unpair it, press and hold the pair button on top of the controller for a few seconds until it vibrates twice.

    Remove the batteries, wait for a few seconds, and reinsert them.

    Once this is done, try to pair it again.

    Turn on your controller by pressing and holding the Xbox button.

    Press and release the Pair button on the Xbox Console.

    Within 20 seconds, press and hold the controller’s Pair button (a circular button on top of the controller as you hold it in your hands) until the controller's Xbox button flashes a few times.

    That means it's searching for a console.

    The Xbox button stays lit once it's connected.

    Let me know if it works!

    Xbox one c controller and headset disconnecting

    I would try with the controller plugged in and see if the problem persists before buying a new controller. if it works while plugged in but not wirelessly then I would definitely try another controller.

    Remove the battery from the controller, while the battery is out hold on the power button of the controller for 1 minute while the battery is out and then plug the battery back in and turn on the controller, let me know if it worked

    "We were unable to find a microphone for these people" error on xbox one S

    Plug your headset into your controller, plug your controller into your Xbox. Restart your Xbox while it's all plugged in. When it's loaded back up and you're on the home screen you can disconnect your controller and your headset ought to be working
    as normal.
