Hey look at the battery holder and in the middle of it there's a hole with a bit of metal (or there should be...) that bit of metal makes circuit at the bottom of the battery's...

long story short fold a small bit of paper (bigger enough to pull out again..) and put in hole (over metal bit) so the plastic bit on the controller can push the metal down enough.


you can test this with your tongue, tongue on battery's and push on the metal you should feel the electricity when you push on it ;-)

Handling the control too tighty or making sharp and sudden button presses causes permanent damage to control leading to this problem

If your using a wireless pad, soudns like dead batteries, just replace the batteries and your away.If your using a wired pad then its a dodgy connector and would probably be easier to take it back to the shop if its still under warrenty. If your good with electronics you could buy a wired controller from somewhere that doesnt have any wire problems, just summin like dodgy buttons, then consider replacing the wire from the dogy button to the dodgy wire pad. Its probably easier than going and buying another pad. Cant trust dodgy abdel these days >>

SOURCE: wireless controllers for xbox 360 disconnect at random times

It sounds like there is a probem with the RF Board (google search it). Problems occur with this from time to time when a sytem is disassembled and reassembled.

How do i reactivate the wireless controller to my xbox 360

How to Configure an Xbox Controller Fotolia.com"> configure-xbox-controller-800x800.jpg Configure you Xbox controller.

The Xbox 360 utilizes two types of controllers: wired and wireless. Like most operations on a video game console, configuring a controller requires little effort. You can either plug the controller into a port on the Xbox 360, or sync a wireless controller using the console's built-in controls.
Difficulty:Easy Instructions

  1. Wired
    • 1 Connect the controller's cable to the in-line release cord. This cord prevents you from accidentally pulling the Xbox 360 along with your controller during game play.
    • 2 Insert the in-line release cord's USB plug into the USB port on the front of the console.
    • 3 Turn on the console to activate the controller automatically.
    Wireless
    • 1 Insert batteries in your wireless controller, if necessary.
    • 2 Hold down the "Guide" button on the controller.
    • 3 Push the Xbox 360's "Connect" button, located on the front of the console.
    • 4 Push the controller's "Connect" button to sync it with the Xbox 360.

Get wireless Xbox 360 controllers to stop disconnecting

By disabling the vibration on the controller, you can keep the batteries in place and the controllers will disconnect less often. If you want to keep the vibration feature on, then use some tape to secure the batteries in place before you put the cover on.

Keep losing connection with controller and console

try getting new batteries if you have a rechargeable battery pack plug in the charger then dissconnect. If this doesn't work it could be two things either your controller or the 360 cant sent out wireless signals for yor 360. To fix this try a different controller or send it in if you still have a warrenty

Wireless xbox 360 controller keeps disconnecting when i fire or get shot evertime whats the problem

I've had this same problem with a few controllers. It's your battery. Well, more specifically the container of the batteries. Chances are, it's lose.
(I would have to keep holding mine firmly in place, while playing games.) The reason it disconnects when you get shot is cause of the controller vibrations. It makes your battery jump out of place, due to not being held in place firmly.
My suggestion would be to either buy a new battery container, or turn vibrations off.
Hope this helps.
