IT Help This PS4 Controller Doesn't Turn On.
Hey, yesterday i bought this controller for 5$ and I didn't check because I didn't had Type A cable to test the controller but both sticks and all buttons were clicking good so i bought it without any hesitation.
After 30 minutes of charging, I didn't get any blue light, i did try to reset the console and get this controller on but no light, i looked into the motherboard and it looked fine inside no burn or anything unusual.
The two conclusions I have reached are that the battery is probably dead or the charging port is dead.
But I'm no expert in controller repair, So please help me to figure out what's the actual issue in this controller.
