Mad catz wire controller

First, make sure you have new batteries in the controller.
Next check the reviver of the wireless controller and see if there are any switches to turn on/off.
Lastly, there should be a switch on the controller itself on the middle face of it.

if its wireless there must be a button to press then press the 1 on the xbox , not much help i know

Mad Catz has been known to cause hardware problems with Sony units. However, it sounds like you are just having a sync problem. Try plugging in a USB Cable to the PS3, connecting it to the controller, then pressing the Home button.

Go to Settings then System Settings then System Information. Once there check the "Version" of the System Software. If it's over 3.5 your "third party" controller is no longer supported. i.e. it will no longer work. Sorry, same issue here. :-(

There is a small device you are supposed to hook up to the PS3 before turning on the controller. Plug the device into the PS3 and then wait a few moments for it to load up, then turn on the remote.

Good Luck,

If the reciever is plugged into the console it should just work. There IS a power button on Mad Catz. Make sure it's turned on but other than that it should work. It doesn't need to be synced to the reciever. It was made already synced. Check the batteries. Make sure the reciever is plugged all the way in.
