Anybody had this problem?

Controller light bar does not illuminate. Controller gets hot when charging. Controller does not sync with PS4.


My other controller works fine with the PS4 and Cable.

    It does sound like the battery my old smart phone behaves the same way because the battery. Overheats easily, charges slow and drains quickly.

    I'm gonna call Sony on Monday.

    It's the 20th Anniversary controller so I want it fixed.

    Took the controller back to the GAME store. Luckily my proof of purchase was linked with my loyalty reward card.

    Sadly lost the 20th Anniversary controller :( as they no longer stock it. Had to settle with this instead...

    Only charge your ps4 controller with a ps4 cord into the ps4 charge port

    I do. I've heard people had problems using quick chargers though.

    Man I had this happen to me on like 3 different controllers. I think it's because when I'm gaming I just use my cell phone charger since it's right there to keep on playing.

    Easy remedy. Get the same one from Walmart pay cash and return your old one with receipt. Get money back and a new controller free. I've done it like 4x. One time forgot to return the controller in allotted time but hey still up 180.. Ya they ask for license or whatever but they never called me back yet. Stay getting Walmart on that kind of ? lol
