    Xbox Series X Sync Button not responsive


    Launch day Series X user here.

    After a few weeks of play without any major issues, I've been unable to sync any controller to my Xbox Series X for 3 days now. In fact, as of 2 days ago, the Sync button on the console no longer responds at all. Previously, the console light would blink
    to indicate that it was searching for a controller (though it wasn't successfully connecting to anything) but now the console doesn't react in any way when I press the sync button.

    I've tried syncing the console to multiple controllers, including the original Elite and the Elite V2. So far, the only way I can play is directly connect my original Elite controller to the console and use it in wired mode.

    I understand that there are some connectivity issues being looked into by the Xbox team, but I'm looking for information as to whether my specific circumstances fall into the category of the things being addressed, or if I need to look at options for hardware
    replacement.

    TLDR: Controllers unable to sync to Xbox Series X, and console sync button is no longer responding at all.

    :)

    I see. If that's the case, there's really something wrong with your controller though.

    i've reset it before and this doesn't help fix it because i'm having troubles with the sync button on the actual xbox controller and not the console. when i press the button on the controller it doesn't start pairing and does nothing at all. i've even tried restarting the controller multiple times but it hasn't worked.

    Xbox Series X Controller Sync Button Not Responsive

    i'm just a bit confused because i've looked all over youtube and google but i couldn't find anyone else that had the same issues. because when they press the sync button on their controller it starts blinking but my controller doesn't do anything at all, it's like just that one button stopped working and all it does is do the slow blinking the controller does after you power it on.
