It's amazing how your instructions actually work and Meta's website has completely outdated and false information on fixing this issue. It's truly frustratingly ironic, but you saved me my man, you saved me. Thank you.
Same thing here!!thank you
This was super helpful. I was in a chat with Meta for about 40 minutes when I found this video and got it working in just a few seconds.
Unbelievable how I spend $600 and have to go to RUclips to solve a problem.
Thanks so much 👍
IMPORTANT!!! PLEASE READ: If none of these things work, CHECK THE INSIDE OF THE CONTROLLER FOR CORROSION. Sometimes batteries suck, especially if they're cheap. In my case, I hadn't used my headset for a few months and the controllers sat unused. So when I changed the batteries, I thought my right controller was broken because it was still dead. If there's corrosion on the silver button(s) where the batteries connect, the battery will not make contact, even if it's brand new. If the button looks "rusty" or feels rough, it's got corrosion on it. Whatever you do, DO NOT use household cleaners, soap, or caustic chemicals on it. Get a Q-tip, put a little alcohol on it (I cut mine with water), and clean the connection area until it's smooth, bright and shiny. If it doesn't work at first, un-pair and re-pair the controller again.
BTW, if this was the problem and you don't think you'll be using your headset for awhile, it's a good idea to remove the batteries from the controllers until you're ready to play again to keep this from happening. No batteries = no corrosion. 🙂
THUMB TRIGGER ISSUES - READ THIS - my boy ended up throwing his controller against the wall and the thumb trigger wouldn't work no more - SO with this vid I was able to tear it open and fix it - FOR INFO - there is a small magnet that moves closer to a sensor the more you push the thumb down, if the magnet isnt flat (which can easily be thrown out of place if you knock it) the thumb trigger doesn't go full range, I slipped in some tweezers and straightened it out flat and it now works!!!!! Great Vid.
sometimes, us kids need to control our anger 🤷♂️

THANK YOU BRO MY PARENTS WERE YELLING AT ME FOR BREAKING NY CONTROLLERS❤️
Same omg
ME TOO
Yup I did the same thing to my daughter
@@valley14baybro look at ur videos ur like 6
@@blaze_12106-jmaybe the daughter uses his account?
Love how I watch this video as my controllers finally connect after the software update or whatever it was
OMG 😭THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS ABOUT TO CRY ILY
Theres no need to cry. Its just the headset becoming a dumbass
W I was looking for a video that worked and didn’t expect to come across this masterpiece of a support video, Love you bro ❤
For some reason i was doing something and when i came back my controllers (both) they were not working and they were full battery but i used a different battery
Buddy for 3 weeks iv had issues with controller jumping about drifting I seen your video 3 weeks ago and I skipped the bit with the battery loose inside the controller and add paper because I thought that's silly guess what I went through my usual blow on controller sticks to see if it would stop drifting and moving and shaking controller and then heard the battery move about , it was the loose battery all this time lol that's wat I get for skipping that part of your video because it sounded silly lol
Thank you so much , this worked!!!
Thank you for this video! It definitely was helpful and spared my son from catching a whooping lol
Dang quest three for the win thanks bro you’re the best
I can’t believe you his actually worked TYSM!!!
That actually worked! Thank you.
WORKED PERFECTLY!!! Thank you!
THANK YOU YOU SAVED ME JUST IN TIME
Thanks buddy. Top man 💫
Thank you! The last tip worked for me
A piece of electrical tape on the inside underneath the battery works a lot better and you don’t have to worry about toilet paper. You just wanna maintain that snug fit because I had a problem with my quest 2, Plus you don’t have to keep fitting the toilet paper around it if you use electrical tape just a tiny piece and you’re good.
I was having issues with one of mine, come to find out the connection to the battery was corroded! Not sure how only used it a few times. Hope this helps anyone!
What do you do now that they have new format for the meta horizon
Bro your a life saver , my soul left my body for a solid 15 mins while I was doing this bro 💀
Thank you very helpful. Fixed my problem
Thank you so much my controller works now!
If I were to skip the step where you turn off the headset completely at 3:15, would that stop this fix from working? I am asking, because I am just about to send back a Quest Pro where the right controller cannot be made to pair with the headset at all. I have tried all sorts of fixes, unpaired the controller (not turned off the headset) and tried re-pairing it. I managed to do this with the left controller, but not with the right controller, which continues to be defective...
They are charged of course, and the controller does enter pairing mode (leds flash differently, and there is a slight vibration after 4 seconds when pressing the two buttons). Still, the thing refuses to work properly.
Thank you so much 🙏🏽
Thank u. U saved my life ❤
The last one worked like a charm
Woooo! Thank you! You saved me $80!
Thank you so much it works now!
Thank you so much for helping

Hi, I did everything correctly and it didn’t work. In stead of my controller vibrating, it was flashing for a long time, then when the app said the controller connected, it wouldn’t show up. Please help me! I’m obsessed with my vr set and play it everyday. This is also my right controller.
THANK YOU

Keep stopping social platform keeps stopping and everything is turning black and my controller are not working when I’m in the main menu in. My VR is not connecting to the Internet please help.
is it working now?
Thanks so much :-)
Thanks it worked
Thank so muchhh 😢😢❤❤❤
Thanks
Is there a way to in pair and pair back without app
Not unless Meta fixed that catastrophic oversight recently. I hated on the Meta tech support people for not making it possible to pair the headset and controllers using a plain old computer. Especially since my headset wouldn't pair with my iPhone when I factory reset it. They suggested I buy a new phone. The Quest is an Android device and it required an Android phone to fix it. Fortunately, I had a cheap Kindle fire tablet ($40) lying around, and after two months of haggling with Meta, it set up right away with the Meta app on the Kindle Fire.
I have one problem with my quest 3 right controller. In first hour of gaming all is ok but after one hour. When i put my thumb on side sensor panel(this is the angle close to B and A buttons) and on trigger, and than remove all my fingers for wave my hand, its opening like 3 seconds. I recognized it in VRChat. Who know how to fix it?
I just bought it off of someone and I did all of those instructions it didn't work, how do I fix it
For some reason I can't access the headset settings and it is saying it isnt connected, i have had the headset for 6 months and i have had no problems with it until now
i dont have Access to the headset settings
Thannkks
Thanks it works now 🎉
i can't replace my battary cuz i'm using the rechargeable batteries that come with the elite strap with battery
This is about the batteries in the controllers, not the headset. If you are using rechargeable AA batteries in the controllers and have this issue just remove them for 5 minutes and then put them in again.
My controller won’t work, (my right one) eg. Whenever I play gorilla tag people say it’s there but I can’t control it. If I do see it it’s in front of me but not tracking my controller, it just sits there. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Having the same issue!
Same
1: They prolly have rechargeable batteries. Change the batteries, and put good quality non rechargeable in them like Energizer or Duracell AA batteries. I don't recommend rechargeable batteries for these controllers unfortunately.
2: Go to the Q3 menu using your hands, go to Devices, and then Quest Controllers. Repair them. Follow the tutorial.
They will work again 100% sure.
Thank you my son was sad an I’m going to surprise my son
My meta recognises the right controlller and its movement but I can’t do anything with it. If I try to select something with it it doesn’t register
Same problem
@@thomassurbellajr3840 take the battery’s out of the controllers and leave them out for like 3 hours and then put them back in. That’s what worked for me
My controller only enters pairing mode if i hold the home and b button while inserting the battery, it will say it paired but will not work at all.
Me too
Спасибо тебе большое,мне помогло и все заработало.
Thank you I was sos scared
Brother please help me out i got this shit yesterday and my meta quest button is unresponsive like my g tf can i do i can’t even open any app on the meta quest. i take the battery out and it shows there’s still life. like bffr i just got this headset. i’ve used it twice. this is the second time. like at this point god hates me because it’s every fucking electronic i touch explodes.
Mines to
That happened to me after a bit
HOW DO I TAKE OUTTHE BATTERY
With great bloody difficulty lol!!
2:47 headset settings is greyed out. Now what.
tysm! Turns out I put in the battery backwards😅😂
pro controllers worse! they just hang on 0% firmware update...nothing helps! no meta support page, not resetting them to factory...
First solution🎉
My dumbass thought I broke the controller but I just put my battery backwards😭😭
So what if I dipped the top bit of my controller in the fish tank and the tracking stopped (hypothetically not real 😅)
Make a ideo where u fix the controller if it's only taking pictures
It didn’t work and my controller has 3 purple dots when I put it on 😢
The controller connected but then it didn’t so I tried to redo it and it wouldn’t repair
Bro my dad was so mad at me that when he saw that it was working he said he did it and that I was to dum for it 💀, but thank you for the help I really appreciate it
My battery is stuck in the controller
In the firs it work after 2 days i retry it didn't work
Can some one tell me how to do it evan though I just unboxed it
My controller itself works like the button menu but it won't track and mine flashes white

@@Seagull--same issue.. I had to restore my entire set to factory settings.. now it works and now I have to reinstall EVERYTHING!! So annoying
