  2. Controller will not turn on

    I have been out of town for about three months, and after turning on my xbox I cannot get my controller to turn on. It is a rechargeable battery, and even if I plug it into my charger cable I cannot get the controller to turn on, even though the light on
    the cable is showing as green. Any help would be appreciated

    That's certainly odd. Do you (or does a friend) have a different controller that you can try with the console, to see where the issue lies specifically?

    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.

    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.
