    I show you how to fix your Xbox 360 Wireless Controller If you've already tried putting new batteries in. What happened was my old battery had corrosion on the battery bottom which spread to the negative spring which would not allow proper flow on battery to terminal, I took a wired brush and brushed off the battery corrosion and that fixed the problem.

    THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS. I CLEANED MY CONTROLLER LIKE YOU SUGGESTED. HOWEVER...MY PROBLEM WAS ALSO THE BATTERY LEADS INSIDE THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT. THE POSITIVE LEAD HAD SOME BATTERY CORROSION ON IT WITH BATTERY DEPOSITS INSIDE. ONE I SCRATCHED AND SCRAPED ALL THAT OUT AND PUT IN NEW BATTERIES...MY CONTROLLER LIT RIGHT UP. HAPPINESS...HAPPINESS. THANK YOU.

    hi mine came with a charger. So basically when you charge it, you have to with a battery inside? Meaning the 2 batteries on your video? It doesn't have like an internal battery? Im charging it right now without a battery in.

  • @Goadiroth
    @Goadiroth 8 ปีที่แล้ว +60

    For anyone who has corrosion inside the battery pack, this is what helped me: I got a q-tip and drenched the tip of it with some regular distilled vinegar, then I cleaned the inside of the pack with the vinegar q-tip. I then dried it with another dry q-tip. The controller still wasn't turning on, so...
    I literally poured coke (the soda) into the battery pack, and shook the pack so the soda got to all the corrosion. I then rinsed it off with some water (there are better options than water I'm sure), then dried the whole thing with a hair dryer for about 5 minutes on the medium setting, not letting it get too hot.
    I put the batteries in, connected the pack to the controller and to my surprise, it worked. I kinda wish I recorded it. :)
    If you have corrosion on the controller, I highly advise to not pour soda into it.... just in case that wasn't already obvious.

    My problem was that the battery port refused to stay in place. I used some duct tape to stick it there. It works with normal batteries, but not with my rechargeable ones. They seem like they have become a tiny bit bigger with extensive use. I guess I'll have to buy new ones.

      Same problem, my xbox controller has been used for nearly 7 years now-thrown beaten. But my dog got a hand of it one time and after that it BARELY lit on the 4 lights, I cleaned the contacts and it started flashing as bright as it should, sti didn't pair up with anything. Maybe you found a way to make it work? I'm close to just throwing it out and buying a new one. It was wayyy past it's age and warranty so might've just worn out
