My PS4 controller keeps saying it is low on power and keeps turning off when I try charge it with my usb cable on my PS4.
What do I do?

Try changing the batteries, oh wait, you can't :)
>>378785161
Plug it into a wall outlet and let it charge you imbecile.

>>378785161

if that doesnt work the controllers connectors are fucked because you werent gentle when pluging the cord into it

>>378785161
Does it work when you leave it plugged in? You can hook it up to PC and check its battery status with ds4windows

You're a fucking retard if you don't know how to take 4 screws out and change a battery.

This doesn't always work.

Not enough information to know why, more than likely its a simple battery swap.
You could always buy a new one from wally fuckworld and put the old one in the box and return the sucker. I do this once a year with all my controllers to get fresh new shiny. Except my x1, i never use that bitch.

How long have you had it? PS4 controllers are designed to fail after exactly 1 year and 6 months of leaving the factory so that they can sell more.

It works for about five seconds before turning off.
I plugged it into a wall and the lightbat is flashing orange.
Have you tried using the reset button next to the screw underneath the controller under the share button?

I got mine in Sep 2015
>>378785810
>got mine at launch
>still works
>play daily
hmmm wat?
oh right you are a burger
>>378785810
No. I've had my original DS4 since launch and it still works perfectly fine.

Is it the original cable that came with the system or some cheapo $2.50 amazon chinese cable?
>>378785810
That's absolutely fucked.

The Sony death switch has been a thing for a while but I don't think they've used it on their PlayStation line before or have they?
>>378787052
Literally the only thing I seen of sony having a serious issue was their cheapo 3d tv they had going for a couple years and they dumped that for cheap. My only regert was not buying multiple of those.

You learn your lesson and buy a scorpio.
Remember that time Sony started putting computer viruses on their music CDs?
Don't doubt planned obsolescence is beyond them.
Battery is probably dead easy fix just 4 screws and pop the back cover off.
