Switch Pro Controller Buttons Not Working

Updated the firmware on the controller.

Switch pro controller buttons not working. Checked joycons to see if their bumpers are working. Un synced and re synced the controller. If you like your pro controller with flip flopped x y and a b buttons you can also enable the nintendo button layout so games default to it. Reset the pro controller by pressing the sync button once then press any other button to wake it up again.

Hoping someone can point me to a fix. Test the button input on the pro controller. Once the controller is paired to the console update the firmware. Hold the button down for roughly 3 5 seconds.

I ve done the following. When i got home and plugged in my pro controller i expected i d do even better thanks to the fact that the pro controller has an actual cross shaped d pad and not four individual buttons. Test the pro controller buttons using a compatible game or application. It handles all of the xinput details itself so connecting the switch pro controller to it with the physical sync button instead of through your pc s bluetooth menu will make it work like an xbox.

Next test the pro controller buttons using a compatible game or application and ensure that all buttons are responsive. If the light bar turns blue the ds4 has paired. Tested the buttons in the button test in settings system is not reading them. If the button test fails skip to situation not resolved.

Connect the ds4 controller to the ps4 using a usb cable and press the ps button. The bumpers on my pro controller have just randomly stopped working. If this option is not enabled your pro controller. Check the game manual to ensure compatibility with the pro controller.

Use a small tool to push the button inside the tiny hole.
