Title: PS3 Problem (SOLVED)
Post by: Josh on February 17, 2010, 06:15:54 PM
I know not to many people use PS3 or have one on these forums id suspect but if you can share some info thatd be Cool =)
So sometimes my Controller will just blank out sometimes and will only some buttons will work (Home, Start etc.) I doubt its the disc because ive tried 3 games and the controller will work sometimes and then it wont. Do i need a new Controller? Can it be fixed? Or does it just need to be turned off for a couple days?
Thanks

well have you tried a diffrent controller to make sure. also it might be a good idea to see if that Controller has a rest button or let the battery's run dire for a while.

Probably a power issue. Check/replace your batteries and check/replace your cord.

I'd say you should just get a new controller.. the battery life on them doesn't last forever and if you let it die a lot I think it can cause it to not work after a while.

Hmm i wouldnt say but that could be the problem. I dont think ive ever let it 'die' but i dunno my bro mightve.
And another thing i noticed,  When you go into the normal system settings it wont move at all but when you hold the PS Button to go to controller Setup etc itll move.
And Art in your first post what do you meen by 'Dire'?


EDIT:

Thanks for all the help but i solved it ^^ I found the reset button lol.
