    Xbox one controller won't turn on


    I was updating controller to use my new headset and my controller died for some reason, now it won't turn on and when I press the Xbox button it lights up slightly but won't stay on, if anyone has a solution let me know because I'm pretty annoyed at the
    moment.

    :)

    Hey FinestOsprey84! It sounds like you've tried most of the steps available but just in case check out the info

    here     and see if there is anything new. If you're still having issues after that, I would suggest returning to the retailer you purchased the console from. Either way, please let me know how it goes!

    Trying removing battery pack/batteries and putting them back in. Try to power on. If that doesn't work, the plugging in it VIA USB to the console itself and updating the controller.

    Hello Meister Mike,

    That could be a possibility however, I have never had a controller that was only used for pc. In my experience, the controller should at least flash white how you explained.

    One way you may be able to test this is by taking the controller to a GameStop or local game store. They should help you test it out on one of their consoles.

    Ok, so does that mean I have to "re-pair" the controller with an Xbox first and that's why it isn't blinking on its own? That would mean the controller is working perfectly fine and it's normal that it doesn't blink when pressing the Xbox button after using
    it on a pc?
