Xbox 360 battery pack not connecting to controller.

I have two Xbox 360 controllers. At first I thought it was the batteries, so I put new batteries in both. I then took out the battery pack of player 1 controller and put it in the back of player 2 controller and it worked fine. However when I put the battery
pack of the player 1 controller back into itself it wouldn't work. When I push down the power button on the controller all lights blink but barely. When I release it it goes off. I've check the connections etc and they all seem fine, and like I said these
are new batteries also. Any suggestions?? New battery pack?

Possible Controller Failure?

Try reconnecting the controller.

But you say it dim flashes, there might be loose contact with battery pack and the controller.

 

the charging station is strange

Hello gamer,

This behavior can occur if one or more of the following conditions are true:

. The battery has reached the charge limit.

. There may be an issue with the charge cable.

. There may be an issue with the battery.

Things to try:

1. Determine the part of the recharging system that may be causing the issue.

Controller

Try AA batteries or try a different Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack in the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller to verify that there is nothing wrong with the controller. If the controller works with different batteries, the controller is not causing the issue.

Charge cable

Try a different Xbox 360 Play and Charge cable to charge the battery. If the battery charges correctly with a different charge cable, the original charge cable is faulty.

Rechargeable battery

a. Use a cotton swab and some alcohol to clean the four gold contacts on the Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack and on the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller.

b. Try a different Xbox 360 Rechargeable Battery Pack with the charge cable. If the second battery charges correctly, the original battery is faulty.

 

Generally those packs go dead after a certain amount of time. Kind of like an electric charging toothbrush with it's docking station. I've been through a few myself. So I hear you. Just replace the pack and you will be fine.
