Xbox series x light doesn’t blink when trying to connect controller?

If your Xbox Series X controller blinks twice, it usually means that the batteries are low or the connection with the console has been lost. Here's what you can try:

1. Replace the batteries: If the batteries are low, the controller will blink twice repeatedly. Try replacing the batteries with fresh ones and see if it solves the problem.

2. Re-sync the controller: To re-sync the controller with the console, press and hold the pairing button on the console until the light starts flashing. Then, press and hold the pairing button on the controller until the light on the controller begins to blink rapidly. Wait a few seconds for the controller to connect.

3. Check for interference: Certain wireless devices or objects may interfere with the controller's signal. Make sure there aren't any devices or obstacles blocking the signal between the controller and the console.

If none of the above solutions work, you may need to contact Xbox support for further assistance.

Do you still get a blinking light on the controller when you try to connect them to your laptop?

Hello othmanmoktada

1. Try to hold on the top of controller small circle, when controller is turned on, light should start blinking faster. While doing that, connect that controller to your Xbox console by cable (do not connect to battery, but to controller itself) the light
should stop blinking and should become stable light). Also you must have original Xbox One controller.

2. If first point did not work, try to contact microsoft support.

3. If you have second controller, try to connect it same way as point 1.

Hope this helps.

Also here is tutorial how to.

I’ve been getting a problem with my controller lately. When I turn on my xbox and dont have a USB cable connected, it works fine, but when I want to use my USB cable, in a few seconds, it disconnects from xbox and goes into its blinking lights like
if it where syncing. Then it turns back on and does the same thing with the blinking lights. I tried syncing it to my xbox while the USB cable is connected, but when I press the syncing button on the xbox, it doesnt blink when its syncing. Try a different
cabble

Hi Killian,

If the controller is not connecting either wireless or with a USB cable, then it could be possible the controller is not functioning properly since it should automatically connect with a cable. The only way to figure out if the console or controller is the
issue is to further test other controllers on that same console, or try to connect that same controller to another Xbox.

Usually the hard reset and power cycle resolves this issue but if it didn't for you, then it could be a hardware problem. If the controller does not connect to the Xbox One console using USB then try connecting to a Windows PC and see if it is detected and
can connect. This way you can also check if the controller needs an update.

When you press the sync button on the console, the Xbox light will blink on the console indicating it is searching for a controller. Then press the sync button on the controller and the Xbox light on the controller will start blinking and then become solid
once it's paired to the Xbox.
