    Controller smoking; stopped turning on


    A wireless controller I've had for less than 5 months and has only seen moderate usage started getting very hot around the D-pad and smelled like smoke. It kept powering off and now it won't even stay on for more than a second. There is no way this should
    have happened, could you please help? At the time it burned up inside, I was playing a game and using a pair of headphones. The controller was running on AA Duracell batteries that meet the specifications of the controller. I would really appreciate my controller
    being replaced or an avenue to replace it.

    :)

    Controller giving me issues.

    I had a problem with mine as well. My bundled headset wouldn't work and after plugging in and unplugging it a couple times, my controller completely stopped working. I turned everything off, then unplugged the power for the console to make sure it was completely
    shut down. Then when turning it back on, the controller worked again.

    Hi hockeyninja15,

    Please discontinue using the controller if you have not already done so. When it is safe to do so you will want to reach out to any needed emergency services, then reach out to the phone team (1-800-469-9269) to look into getting this taken care of.

    Have a good night!

    Controller issues.

    Are you sure the smell of smoke is actually coming from the controller? If so, I would stop using it and contact
