How to Fix PS5 Controller Not Connecting to PS5 Console (Best Method)

Описание: When a PS5 controller won't connect to the console, the most effective solution is to force a direct, wired connection. This method bypasses any potential wireless interference or pairing issues.

1. Hard Reset the Controller 🔄
This is the most common fix. The reset button will clear the controller's current pairing information, preparing it for a fresh connection.

Completely turn off your PS5 console.

On the back of the controller, locate the small hole next to the SONY logo, near the L2 trigger.

Use a small tool like a paperclip or a pin to press and hold the button inside this hole for about 5 seconds.

The controller will turn off, indicating the reset is complete.

2. Reconnect with a USB Cable
A simple wired connection is the best way to re-pair the controller with the console.

Use a USB-C cable that supports data transfer (the one that came with the PS5 is ideal).

Plug the cable into the front USB-C port on the PS5 and then into the controller.

Turn on the PS5.

Press the PlayStation (PS) button on the controller. The controller should now sync with the console, and its light bar will turn a solid color.

If the controller works while plugged in but not wirelessly, the issue may be a wireless interference problem. If it doesn't work at all, try a different USB cable, as some are only for charging and not data transfer.

3. Check for Firmware Updates
If you have another working controller, check for controller or system software updates. Outdated firmware can cause connectivity problems.

On the PS5, go to Settings Accessories Controller (General).

Select "Wireless Controller Device Software" to check for and install any available updates.
