Was worried about mine even after resettling it it didn’t work
1. I grabbed my second controller and logged in
2. Went to settings then Bluetooth devices, forgot the controller that isn’t working
3. On the controller that is not working initiate share mode by grabbing both power button on said controller
4. Said controller will show in Bluetooth devices, click on said controller and connect using working controller

You have to put insert the cable in the controller, press the home button 5 seconds untill it flashes a few times untill it turns off, and then press again the home button 5 seconds untill the color shows up and connects to the PS4.. That worked for me

If this doesnt work i have a fix
This does require for you to have another controller with stickdrift or something if you have that follow what i did
1. Go to settings
2. Click on devices
3. click on bluethooth devices
4. select the controller that doesnt work
5. Press options and the press forget device
6. go to the not working controller and press down the home button and share button at the same time for about 5 seconds if it went good for you should see a flickering light
Go back to devices and bluethooth and you shoukd see a new controller pop up click on it and then you should have your controller back

Ive literally tried everything, what do you recommend

[umairmamaniat]

i can see the connection in my bluetooth devices but i says the passkey might not be correct or your bluetooth device might have cancelled the connection

This doesn’t help like my controller keeps flashing and i used lots of methods like the charging and press the ps button but that didn’t work and i tried this method still nothing and I tried holding the share and ps button at the same time for like 5-10 seconds but sadly nothing works so any tips?
