Meta Quest touch controller stopped working : Possible solution

[Hexagone]

Hello,

This is not necessarily for everyone, but if your Meta controller suddenly stopped working without any apparent reason—no response, no lights, no vibration—even after resetting, changing the battery, and trying to pair it again... I might have a solution.

You see, the issue could be as simple as a faulty electrical contact inside. Many devices appear "dead" when in reality, they're just not receiving power properly.

This reminds me of a laptop deemed unrepairable, until we realized the problem was just a malfunctioning power button...

Here’s what you can try:

1. Remove the battery cover of your controller.
2. Locate the small metal contact inside.
3. Gently turn or adjust it.
4. Reinsert the battery and see if it reconnects.

Hope this helps someone out!
