    I am trying to connect a Xbox one controller to my Xbox but the pair button doesn't work.


    Recently my Xbox one fell on the floor and the side plate fell off, and the pair button is fried. About a week later I paired my Xbox one controller to my phone but, I can't pair the controller to my Xbox one again because... my pair button is fried. What
    do I do?

    (FYI if this helps I have the original Xbox one.)

    :)

    Cannot pair Xbox One S controller wirelessly to Windows 10 via Bluetooth

    Hey all,

    I've got two Xbox One S controllers and I thought I'd try to pair one with my system via bluetooth. For some reason though my system can't find the controller. Bluetooth is turned on as is the controller and I hit the bind button on the controller and it's
    waiting to pair. I click on the Add Bluetooth or other device + button and then choose "Everything else" but it doesn't show up. I can connect via USB.

    Followed everything in this article: Connect Xbox Wireless Controller to Windows PC | Xbox One Accessories

    And this one:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/xbox-on-windows/accessories/connect-and-troubleshoot-xbox-one-bluetoo...

    But nothing works. I also downloaded the Xbox accessories app and it says the controller is up to date. I've tried both controllers, neither works.

    Any idea how to get them to pair?

    Thanks!

    Xbox Controller

    My Xbox Wireless Controller won't connect to my Bluetooth at all but it connects by USB to my computer, it also flashes when I click the pairing button and my Bluetooth is turned on, whenever I go to the pair devices and try to pair the Xbox controller
    it doesn't show up. Is there a way I can reset the controller without the console?
    Its suppose to flash when pairing also what are you trying to pair it to

    Problem syncing arctix9x headset to my xbox one

    The pairing button on your Xbox console isn't working?

    You may want to try a full power down to see if you can get that pairing button to activate. That is the means to pair this type of headset so not many work arounds for that.

    The Arctis 9X pairs with your Xbox One just like a controller -- hit the wireless pairing button on the console and headset at the same time, and wait for them to connect. In my testing, that took around five seconds. SteelSeries says it worked with
    Microsoft while developing the Arctis 9X to make sure it took full advantage of their proprietary wireless connectivity. (The Xbox One doesn't support Bluetooth headphones, which is one reason why it hasn't seen many wireless headsets.)

    Controller not working while plugged in and on

    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!
