    Controller overheated


    So I was playing on my xbox when I got the low batteries warning. I kept playing for a while but then the white LED turned off and I figured batteries had died. Today I decided to take away the batteries and plug my controller via USB to my PC to play a
    game (a PC game). When I did, the white LED wouldn't turn on, and after a short while (10 minutes maybe?) the controller overheated near the D-Pad zone. I tried later to plug it back, but still the LED wouldn't turn on.

    So what should I do now? Can this be repaired? Is the controller still usable after some fix? How?

    Thanks for any help or tip!

    :)

    Overheated XBOX One controller

    I use my XO controller solely with my PC and one day it just overheated for no reason while I left it connected to my PC with a USB cable. It was extremely hot when I touched it and is now faulty and doesn't turn on after numerous attempts to switch it on
    after it cooled down. Tried using AA batteries, doesnt work. The thing is I bought it brand new in box from someone online and I cant do the microsoft repair service online as it keeps telling me the information is wrong, I dont understand.

    Has your controller ever overheated before?

    No, I have never had an issue with a controller overheating but I have heard of others having the problem.

    Xbox controller and live connection issues

    I had that controller problem too but that was due a overheating problems, I recommend don't recharge your controller battery from the console always use a external source of power, just a tip

    Xbox one shutting down

    I had this same issue with my X1X and it was because the fan vent was blocked by my controller's battery charger so the console was overheating.

    Xbox One controller overheating

    Sounds like a battery issue thats the only thing in the controller I can think that will generate heat? Maybe someone can add to that
