    Controllers keep flashing


    I'm having a problem where both of controllers will not connect with the console, the light just flashes on both controllers and pressing any buttons does not help.

    I have rechargeable battery packs for both controllers but even changing to the AA type disposable battery pack doesn't change the problem.

    I recently just purchased a Xbox play and charge kit and even with the wire plugged into the Usb port they still just flash.

    I have the Xbox 360e console and I have tried to to also do the frequency synch method that is outlined in the troubleshooting section.

    Please someone help me with this issue Controllers keep flashing :)

    :)

  2. 2 problems i been having lately. please help

    nat settings are open. that was the first thing i checked on it.

    for the battery, even regular batteries make the lights flash like that. as i said i switched controllers and it didnt keep flashing like that. another charge cable does same thing. another battery makes it keep flashing.

    Controller cannot connect when I plug in the HDMI cord

    as a side note I have tried and synced the controller but the controller's lights keep flashing so it never syncs with the xbox.

    hey thanks for the help I tried turning it on manual and the controller sync but after that it won't sync anymore and the lights keep on flashing on the controller. when I try to go sync it with the 360 but the 360 doesn't pick it up and the lights still
    flash on the controller. what does this also mean?

    my controller just keep on flashing

    Hello!

    Thanks for reaching out to us here on the forums with this situation. I understand you're having trouble with a couple of controllers staying synced to the console. Take a look at the steps listed in this support article:

    Troubleshoot your Xbox One wireless controller.
    If those steps don't resolve the situation. Try safely powering down the console and then unplugging it from its power source completely. Leave it unplugged for about 2 minutes or so. After the time has passed
    remove the batteries from the controller and connect it with a working USB cable to the console. Then use the controller itself to power up the console by holding the Xbox Guide button (light up Xbox logo). If it starts up try replacing the batteries and unplugging
    the USB once you're at the home screen. Give it a try and let us know with a reply if this helped.
