OrionStang Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Controller was low, so I put it on my charging dock. Left for ~25 minutes. Removed from dock and press PS button to turn on, now all 4 lights on top of the controller are blinking (and have been for ~15 minutes) and it won't respond to anything I try. Tried putting it back on the charger, tried holding down the PS button, random pounding of all the buttons LOL, nothing works. Suggestions, anybody seen this before, is it done for? Is there a way to reset the controller? Edited August 8, 2012 by OrionStang Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted August 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 have you tried plugging it to the ps3? it usually does it with new controllers Don;t have a USB cable, got the charging dock when my puppy ate my cable. The controller is original to the system, not new. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted August 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I'm kinda in the middle of a Gran Turismo endurance race. It would really fucking suck to lose that progress. Is there no reset button on the controller? Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballen194 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) When they all light up usually means its not in sync with the ps3. Surely you have a cord thatll fit your ps3 controller. Everything takes that mini usb shit these days. Edit: even if reset (which I think is what happened in the first place when it died) you'd still need to resync it with the ps3 Edited August 8, 2012 by Ballen194 Quote 98 Isuzu Rodeo Pioneer Deh-6300ub SUBS*Upcoming* SSA Xcon 18 4th order AMP Banda 3500 Mids/Highs Pioneer EQ Clarion EQS746 ETC.
