I have 2 oculus so 4 controllers. All 4 controllers don’t work. These were to expensive to not have working controllers.

Hey there, @Nicki.6079! We understand you're having some issues with your controllers not pairing with your headset. We definitely know how crucial properly functioning controllers are when trying to enjoy a stellar VR experience, so we'd love to help you out with that! We'd like to ask you a couple questions to get a better idea of where the hiccup is when trying to pair these controllers. If you would, please reply by answering the following questions:

 

  • Is there any LED light on the controller? If so, what is the status of the LED? (blinking, solid, or no light at all)
  • Have you tried changing the batteries in the controllers?
  • Are there any third-party accessories that may affect power, battery fit, or controller detection?
  • Have you attempted to reset your controllers?

We'd like to avoid any repetition in troubleshooting this issue. In order to do so, please let us know what troubleshooting steps you've attempted on your end, we look forward to hearing back!

Were these headsets bought through an official retailer as brand new? If not, are they the correct controllers? (Quest 2 has white controllers with a top tracking ring, if the controllers are black they won't work)

These are original controllers.  purchased new altogether.  used for a considerably long time before they stopped working.  we replaced the batteries did a system update got one of the controllers to work again for a short time.  Now back to all four no longer working.  I am looking for a way to get them repaired or replaced. There is an LED that lights up when buttons are pressed but it just flashes.  changed all batteries then got new batteries changed them again. there are no 3rd party accessories. We have attempted to reset them also.  At this point one turns on but doesn't connect just blinks others turn on blink while trying to connect then stop after they fail to connect.   I am starting the process over and labeling the controllers to know exactly what each is doing.
