    Xbox Series X controller turns off consistently while fully charged


    My xbox series X controller shuts off 3,4,5 times every minute despite having brand new batteries. This controller is only 5 months old and is updated with the latest firmware. This issue makes practically any online multiplayer game unplayable. Are there any known fixes for this? I haven’t been able to find anything useful so far.

    :)

    xbox controllers turning off while fully charged

    Hi, Sushii! thank you for reaching out.

    My name is AJ, I'm an Independent Advisor for the Xbox Community.

    I'm sorry to hear you've been having a hard time with your controllers.

    I'd suggest power cycling both your console and your controllers, like this:

    - Press and hold your controller's Xbox button until it shuts down.

    - Remove your controller's batteries and the Micro-USB cable (if plugged in) for a minute or two.

    - Press and hold your console's power button until it shuts down.

    - Remove all external devices from the console's USB ports.

    - Unplug your console's power cord for 5 minutes. If you have the original Xbox

    One, you'll need to unplug the power supply unit from both the console and the

    outlet.

    - Plug the power cord back in, and make sure to use one of the wall's outlets.

    - Turn your console on and check if the issues persist.

    * If necessary, try pairing your controller again.

    I hope this helps!

    My new play and charge kit acting weird

    well if you plug the cord to the controller to charge the battery while the console is still on and you are playing a game how do you shut the console off and continue to charge the controller? i thought it didnt matter how you shut the console off because
    it will always remain charging until the battery is fully charged no matter what way you turn it off?

    issue after I power off my 360.

    Yes: either Background Downloads, or Cloud Storage syncing your saved games with the cloud. Or a controller connected with the Play & Charge kit... all perfectly normal, as long as the console turns off fully in a little while (or maybe longer if it
    is the controller charging).

    Microsoft wants to steal the consumers money!

    [quote user="Taka x Illusion"]The point it gets to when they don't charge is when the batteries are already fully charged.[/quote]No, they're dead, seeing as how the controller goes dark after a few seconds of use (if it powers on at all). That's when the
    plug/unplug trick is required to get enough charge on the batteries for them to charge on their own.
    And if you keep on charging the controller while its already at full charge than that's your problem.
    Once the pack is charged, the charger is
    supposed to turn itself off. It doesn't always do so.
