While the 360 is on, you need to press the connect button on the console, then the connect button on the controller. It's a little tricky, but you should get it.

I'm not sure exactly how the manual says to do it, but here is what works. Press and hold the connect button on the controller until the lights spin quickly, then press the connect button on the console. This worked quickly when I switched consoles.

So i had the same problem with mine, but sadly that didnt work. The lights on my controller spin like you said, but when i press the connect button on the console, they just keep spinning and nothing happens, then the lights just go back to blinking, anyone have any solutions?

On the controller itself is a small white button on the top right where you connect the plug and play kit that needs held in as well you may not be holding it in and without that held in the signal is not reaching the 360 so it basically times out.

Re: My Xbox 360 wireless controller doesnt work

quick question, when the wireless controller flashes in quad's 1 and 4, then alternates to 2 and 3, what is does this mean? i'm assuming that the controller is telling that the rechargeable battery is getting low, but i'm just wondering what it's for. the controller works fine though

It is the first warning the battery pack is getting low. You will notice that it will then flash faster and longer. It is normal though.
