@PercytheheroXx what right buttons? do you mean R2/L2? if yes then a spring got loose. a way to check if that's your problem: shake your ps3 controller and when you hear a little metal thing moving inside it then you should open it and put it back
Have that issue on ps3 slim kept using it with that problem but im pretty sure thats a bluetooth antenna problem try a rock candy controller with a usb if tou want to use it wirelessly that way
This once happen to me when my cousin drop it, If u haven't noticed there is a little hole behind the controller, turn on the controller and when is flashing like that just get a something pointy and insert it on the hole and press it till u hear a click,this will restart ur PS3 controller :)
RESET IT. ON THE BACK OF IT, TO THE RIGHT SIDE ABOVE THE STICKER THERE IS A SMALL HOLE... USE A POINTED OBJECT THAT FITS THROUGH IT AND PRESS IT ONCE, THEN PLUG IT TO THE PS3 WITH USB CABLE THEN TURN IT ON. HOPE THIS HELPS
i have issue on my ps3 slim, on the screen is text connect controller using usb cable and press the ps button, if i connect it with cable all is in same position, still same screen and the controller is blinking and cant find the console, so i dont know what do, i have one original ps controller and one “fake” (no original) so can you help me? i try reset controller and none happened
all you have to do is reset it. there is a tiny button on the back, press it with i pen, then connect it to the ps3 to pair it, and you are good to go.
@KashgroundTM I've abused my ps3, xbox and nintendo controller in that way with about equal playtime, but I've only broken the nintendo analogue stick doing that
People taking the piss out of the video need to back off!! I did exactly the wrong thing and used the wrong cable, no idea where it even came from and obviously it didn't charge or illuminate the controller lights. Didn't even occur to me that it was a data cable only. Tried numerous usb sockets and simply assumed the controller had died, it is the original from way back when! Just found the Sony cable, plugged in and away we go. All working ok again.
had the same problem! I shut down the ps3 INCLUDING the off switch in the back for awhile...after a bit.w the controller connected(don't know if it made a diffferance really,i used a paper clip end I poked into the little hole in front of the controller and held for 10 seconds..turned everything back on and it worked..don't know if I had the ps3 on /off forever or it was the reset
@Mr143 if u look closely at the top, u will see a little hole. in that hole, theres like a little button (yellow i think) and u hav to push that with something small (paperclip, pencil, etc) and then it should turn on ;)
get a toothpick or needle or something like that and flip your controller over. you will see a screw beside the screw there is a small hole really small hole what you want to do is turn it on and while the lights are flashing take the needle and stick it in the hole and you will hear it it is like a button press then it will turn off turn it back on and it should be working again.
a thanks yours worked for me out of about 5 different guys how to fix ps3 flashing led lights problem and at the same time can not use ps3 controller unless I used an usb cable
I have the same problem only when I put the USB in my controller just charges it doesn't work. The ps button flashes when its off the USB and it doesn't respond when its on the USB. Please help me if you know how to fix it. The Reset button didn't work either.
I think that u may have too many devices connected via. Bluetooth to your PS3. I had the same problem and fixed it by going to settings, select new device, and push the PS button on your controller
Works with ps3 cable but when taken out doesn't connect auto so how to fix this problem tired reseting, tried charging full, tired putting ps off and connecting cable starting using cable and putting on and taking out but still doesn't worj
Dude I have the same problem and I have used everything I even try to reset the button and still it didn't work and charged it for like maybe like 2 months

@bronson1524 Same and so far the only fix I've found, is people throwing the controller across the room or something and then it magically started working again. I'm going to go buy a new controller and then try that. If it works then at least I now have a 2nd controller.
I play my old ps2 and Ps1 games on my PS3, and my controls on the controller do not function right in game on certain (Ps1 and Ps2) games on the PS3. How can I fix this problem?
@Mr143FTW same thing happened to me. problem was that I didn't realize that when I charged it, it wasn't actually charging. I just changed the USB port that I was putting my charger in and it worked. Can someone help me with my problem too? Sometimes when I use the left analog stick, other buttons are pressed as well(most commonly triangle and L1). very annoying
sometimes they do that mine does it but not like that i jus have to hold the middle button to stop it from flashing then wen it does i have to cut it bac on
Just happend to me yesturday i reset both of the controller s because both wont connect , tried all reset my controller s and even mys ps3 but notthing still wont connect . What can i do please
this happens when you allow the battery to run out and carry on using it so you need to reset it (small button on the back of the controller) and then plug it in via the USB cable and voila, back in the gaming bizz
i had mine chargeing 3 days now, and still would not turn on properly. so i opend it up nothing was wrong but i turned the battery then it was flashing 4 lights, so then i pressed ps button then it was sync to ps3 but then boom no power to controller and its plugged in. kinda cool though cause i always use to play games but its hard not to play
I had a working controller 5 mins ago, but it just stopped connecting and nothing seems to be working. I've tried every fix on the forums and these help videos, but no controllers will connect. Extremely frustrating as I opened it up and cleaned out the dust and applied new thermal compound. Controller worked just fine after, but after turning it off and back on again, none of my controllers will connect no matter what I try.
i have the same problems. they connect just fine when the PS3 is already on. the controllers will turn the PS3 on, but then wont connect, unless i hook them up to the usb. Ive tried the reset button but that doesn't work. anybody got any advice?
here is the problem, i have 3 controllers, 2 wires that charges the controllers. 1 regular ps3 controller, the other 2 are different. I was using the PS3 one and it said low battery on the TV screen, so i thought i should charge it, but it still said on the screen that it needed charged, so after about a week, the controller died. and my other 2 controllers need charge too. Plus both of my chargers wont charge it in the PS3 or the Computer,....HELP!!
this isnt a fake controller on the back of your controller is a little hole and there in is a reset button you must have something small to push it and then you can play
help me plzz .. i have tried it but my controller not wroking. when i press PS button all the 1234 red lights blinks after 5 to 10 sec it stops and it wont charge . anyone help me plz..
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH :) I would of tore mine apart if it wasn't for this video! :D
first person to play with 5 controllers congrats man
awww man. u had such a great background. :(
Actually, since I connected my PS3 controller to my Windows Computer, it started doing this, I got mine from the shop.

Right next to the top screw hole they're is a reset hole take a paper clip and push it if for 5 seconds take it out and it should connect

@KashgroundTM I've abused my ps3, xbox and nintendo controller in that way with about equal playtime, but I've only broken the nintendo analogue stick doing that
all you have to do is find something such as a needle and push the reset button thats located int the back, inside the lil hole

@PercytheheroXx unscrew the faceplates and make sure all wires are connected to the base board nd if its not take a sauder gun nd fic it
Try restarting it, there is a little hole in the back of your ps3 controller. Get something that will fit in the hole.
get a toothpick or needle or something like that and flip your controller over.
you will see a screw beside the screw there is a small hole really small hole
what you want to do is turn it on and while the lights are flashing take the needle and
stick it in the hole and you will hear it it is like a button press then it will turn off
turn it back on and it should be working again.

@Mr143FTW the light is still flashing after you turned on your ps3 with it?
@Mr143FTW the light is still flashing after you turned on your ps3 with it?only press the ps button
@RandomFluffyKittens i dont think so.. because i have another controller and i charge it with the same charger and it works fine.

It can be broken bluetooth module inside ps3 or You have to reset controller!
I think something's wrong in the chip itself, you can take it to a shop to repair it but... its probably just easyer to buy a new one =7
@Mr143FTW same thing happened to me. problem was that I didn't realize that when I charged it, it wasn't actually charging. I just changed the USB port that I was putting my charger in and it worked.

I have the same problem only that when I unplug the controler it turns off. But the same controller works in my neighbours ps3

Hi man are you here?
I think you have get you battery replaced or get the exact same one at gamestop man.
@ERATvPS3 yes there is look at the back you will see small hole put a small pen in it and 5-10 seconds then it reset
Thank you
Chinese PS3 version... it´s not genuine product. But you can use the reset button at rear of controller.
cool camera.
I still have the problem it has fully charged but when I take it off then it won't work!!!
You have to connect it to the ps3 with the charger cable
@coolgue100 Good I'm glad it worked..
You need to plug it in when you start up
hey just be patient wit it
@lilblondi2010 Yeah what he said turn it on while plugged in
@monstaslaya i have the same problem i notiched that on Battlefield 3 and Uncharted 3 and i dont know how to fix that problem either
@xekispir nope. no light at all..
@Mr143FTW Both of mine are doing that and when i get one of them to turn on the X [] O and /_\ don't work
i had mine chargeing 3 days now, and still would not turn on properly. so i opend it up nothing was wrong but i turned the battery then it was flashing 4 lights, so then i pressed ps button then it was sync to ps3 but then boom no power to controller and its plugged in. kinda cool though cause i always use to play games but its hard not to play
Whats the solution! I just got this brand new PS3 controller?
Most likely that the LED circuit is not in line properly. Just get an expert to take it apart and fix it.
Use a paper clip to push the reset button then push the ps3 button and it should connect
Alles klar ich warte und warte und warte passiert nix Dank denn Video funkiurniert es wieder danke!! Hahaha
I had the exact same problem with my controller but when I turn off the system and turn that system back on then put the controller on it was fine

Turns out it wasn't the controllers, but the console. Fried the motherboard and antenna while trying to fix my overheating problem.
Nice HD!!!!
if this happen to ur ps3 controller and push the little button in back it well resart ur controller
Why those buttons from my ps3 controller blinks fast all the time
Oh go to accecory settings and go to reassign controll to one
maybe you should set the USB cable in the ps3 controller in a while.
Press the reset button on the back with a safetey pin then connect it by usb back to the PS#.
@Perahke thanks it workt!!! :D
i have the same problems. they connect just fine when the PS3 is already on. the controllers will turn the PS3 on, but then wont connect, unless i hook them up to the usb. Ive tried the reset button but that doesn't work. anybody got any advice?
