My 1 month old xbox one controller won't connect to my xbox one S wirelessly anymore.

Yesterday I was playing FIFA 17 locally against a friend when I had to pause. After pausing my controller disconnected and it would not connect anymore. I tried a lot of things and it looks like it's related to this specific controller and my xbox.

I tried connecting this controller on my macbook via bluetooth and it worked. I tried connecting this controller on my xbox via USB cable and it worked. The other controller is working perfectly with the xbox one, so I think I can rule out it being a console issue.

I've tried everything here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/wireless-controller-disconnects

and a few things on other sites/videos. No luck!

As I said before, after all the testing I've done it seems to be a problem between my xbox one S and that controller. And that is the controller it came bundled with!

Any ideas?

  • Have you tryed resyncing the controller with the console? It sounds like your controller is paired with your macbook, and cant be paired with the console because of that.

    did you also unpair it with your macbook prior to this? i know from my current bluetooth headphones that if i dont unpair them with my phone, my tablet cant connect to them sometimes.

  • no, but the connection to the macbook only occurred after the problem. I was only testing to check whether the controller was still working.

  • Im going to assume you have tried most things found online, including a firmware update. In that case i would recommend you contact the support and try get a replacement on warranty, if it still applies

My guess would be that you would have to pair the controllers again. By pressing the pairing button and adjusting a specific setting and your controller might work
