      If its lighting up showing it's charging but it's not actually holding a charge that would be a fault with the battery and if replaced should fix the issue, same thing happens with car batteries

    Yo I found out if you guys are having problems with your controller cherges but not connecting to the ps4 I don't like to take much risks but there should be a black cord behind your ps4 just unplug that kne for 2 to 3 minutes then plug it back in then connect a charger to that controller and it should work but before you try it dust the sides to the console just in case. You guys can try it if you want Don't be scared and just trust like or comment this comment if this works for you. Tell me if it works also Don't put your ps4 into rest mode all the time I learned it the hard way.
