  1. My Xbox controller isn’t syncing and most of the buttons aren’t working when the sync works


    Help My Xbox series s controller is failing to sync and some of the buttons won’t work. A few hours ago I was playing a game and my controller started to vibrate out of nowhere even though I have vibration turned of and some of the buttons (To be exact: XABY, The touch pad, the 3 small buttons and both of the bumpers) weren’t working in the middle of the game. So I tried restarting my Xbox but my controller was failing to sync and out of nowhere it will vibrate twice and turn off. Whenever it does sync the buttons I listed won’t work. I tried every single fix but none of them are working. (Restarting my console and controller, putting in fresh batteries, updating my controller using Mouse and keyboard, trying most fixes) but none of them works and lead to the same thing. I’m just wondering if there are any fixes and id I should get a new controller.

    :)

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    good evening

    It sounds like there might be an issue with your Xbox controller, and you've already tried several common troubleshooting steps to resolve it. If none of the fixes you've tried have worked, it's possible that the controller is broken and needs to be replaced.

    as a player I can only inform and the joystick has a 90-day warranty, microsoft does not carry out out-of-date repairs.

    If it is within the deadline, request the repair:

    it is necessary to register the product on the microsoft website and open a work order.

    Old Xbox 360 controller not working on slim

    The old controller work with the Xbox 360 slim. Have you been following these steps to sync your controller?:

    To sync them up, power on the Xbox and the controller. Then push the sync button on the Xbox (small black button next to the USB ports on the front), then push the sync button on the controller (location varies depending on the type of controller). When
    you push the sync button the green light will spin in a circle (on both the Xbox and the controller). If the light doesn’t spin in a circle then it isn’t in sync mode and you might have a problem with the controller.

    I did this with my own Xbox slim and my old controllers so I know it is possible.



    Here is a youtube video of someone showing it work/how to do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWGdw_oi0Xc



    Hope it works! Happy gaming!

    xbox elite controller wont sync to pc. sync button doesnt do anything

    it does work when i just press the sync button on my controller, without it being plugged in, and while its synced to the xbox, but this is a rare occurrence. and i still have to power on the xbox just to turn on the controller.

    this is a newly refurbished controller, so i doubt it is the sync button itself either.

    on my xbox one x is not working at all.

    My brand new Xbox One Controller wont sync to my Xbox One

    Maybe try to un plug xbox to do reset. Then when it fires up hit the sync button on xbox then turn controller on and hit sync on that.

    I hope this works for you. If it does not work you may have a defective controller.
