Use the Controller in Wired Modeīefore you give up on your PS4 controller, you should try playing with it permanently connected via a USB cable and telling your PS4 not to use the wireless Bluetooth connection. If you borrow a friend's DualShock 4 that you know works properly and find that it has issues with your system, something is probably wrong with your PS4's wireless connectivity. It's also a good idea to try using another PS4 controller with your console, if possible.

If you have similar problems on a friend's PS4, your PC, or a smartphone, then your controller is likely faulty. Try Connecting the PS4 Controller ElsewhereĪt this point, if you haven't already, you should try connecting the PS4 controller that's having problems to another device. Once you've done this, connect your controller to your PS4 again via USB cable and see if it pairs successfully. Use your pointed tool to press and hold the button inside this hole for roughly five seconds. You'll see a small hole next to the screw by the L2 button (on the right side of the controller when flipped over). This won't reset anything on your PS4 or affect your controller aside from having to pair it again, so it's a non-intrusive troubleshooting step.įully turn off your PS4, then flip your controller over. You'll need a small pointed object, like a bent paper clip or a SIM card ejection tool, to do this.

If removing and re-pairing the controller didn't work, you can next try the full reset procedure for the DualShock 4. If this doesn't work, turn your PS4 back on and try pairing it the normal way, as above. Hit the PS Button on the controller to hopefully turn on and pair your controller in one process.

Once it's shut down, connect the problematic controller to your console with a USB cable. To do this, fully turn off your PS4 (as explained earlier). This is a good time to try a slightly different pairing method: having your PS4 controller re-pair at startup. This will cause your PS4 to remove it from memory so you have to pair it again. On the resulting menu, press the Options button on your controller and choose Forget Device.
