About this deal

Press the Power button to wake the Switch. You’ll be met with a pop-up asking whether you want to reset the controller mapping. This may not work if you don’t have an active controller, but it’s an excellent way to get your controllers to respond again. You can also use an alternate controller if you have one. Then go to System Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Update Controllers. This will install the latest firmware for your controllers. A visual inspection of the controllers to look for damage might help save some time. If you share the Switch with others or the controllers were recently dropped or otherwise jolted, there may be a problem you haven’t noticed yet. If you see signs of physical damage, that indicates a problem that might require repair. The Switch Pro easily connects to PC via a wired connection. Going wireless requires jumping through a few hoops, but it’s a fairly painless process. You just need to pair the pad using Bluetooth. Your device should recognize the controller, and then you can set it up in Steam. With Steam, all the button mapping will be done for you, as it’s recognized as an Xbox controller. However, if you're playing games outside of Steam, you'll need the 8BitDo Wireless USB Adapter or special programs to make the Switch Pro Controller act like an Xbox gamepad.

If your controller still won’t turn on, it may have lost its wireless connection or “sync” with the Switch console. Start by taking off any skins or other decorative ephemera from the controller. It may be interfering with it in some way. If you do see physical damage, you may need to send your controller in to Nintendo for repair. But try the troubleshooting steps below first, as the issue could be something simpler. Try Charging/Resetting the ControllerWatch the screen and follow the prompts. If your controller isn’t working correctly, you can press X to calibrate it. When looking for a new Nintendo Switch controller, the list of criteria is thankfully short, as it really just comes down to comfort and the game type at hand. Racing games: There are very few racing wheels compatible with Switch, but the Hori Mario Kart Racing Wheel Pro Deluxe is a solid, affordable option. You can also find basic plastic wheels to slot your Joy-Cons into, but they are nowhere near the traditional racing wheel experience. Updating ensures full compatibility between your console and controllers. Reboot your Switch after updating, then test your controllers again. Try Re-Syncing the Controllers

Unfortunately, it’s difficult to do any meaningful troubleshooting on the Switch itself without a controller. There are steps you can do if you don’t have a controller connected, but most of the suggested troubleshooting steps require being able to input commands with a controller. Reset the Pro Controller by pressing the SYNC Button once, then press any other button to wake it up again.Understanding why your controllers aren’t working might help give you an idea of where to start. If not, there’s nothing wrong with trying every solution available.
