Resetting a PS4 controller is a relatively simple process that can help resolve issues such as connectivity problems, input lag, or unresponsiveness. Here’s how you can reset your PS4 controller:
- Locate the reset button: On the back of the controller, there is a small hole next to the L2 button. Inside this hole, you’ll find the reset button.
- Press and hold the reset button: Using a paperclip or a similar tool, press and hold the reset button for about 5 seconds.
- Wait for the controller to reset: Release the reset button and wait for the controller’s lights to stop flashing.
- Reconnect the controller: Connect the controller to your PS4 using a USB cable and press the PS button on the controller to pair it with the console.
If the controller is still not responding, try resetting it again or using a different USB cable. If the problem persists, you may need to replace the controller or seek technical assistance.
