    Controller Flashes Twice Then Shuts Off

    it happened out of nowhere today while playing GTA 5, it disconnected, I changed the batteries assuming that was the problem, but it still would just flash twice then shut off. Even having it plugged in with usb it still just flashes twice then fades off.
    I've tried most steps available to fix it, but problem still persists. Any help?

    Thanks

    Xbox 1 controller

    When I press the turn on button it flashes and turns on my console after that the controller turns off.

    console randomly returns to the dashboard and acts like it opening the disk try during a game.

    When i have to shut the console off to get it to stop, i have to wait until the console stops the slow light flashing and for it to turn off completely before turning it back on, if i just turn it off and right back on, the problem still persists.
