If your PS4 controller won’t charge, you can try swapping out the charging cable or checking the charging port. You can also try resetting and re-pairing your controller, or performing a power cycling on the PS4. The issue may also be with the charging port or the charging cable.

Why is my PS4 not charging my controller?

If your controller isn’t charging, chances are the cable might be the issue. If you’re using a standard USB cable or the one that came with your PS4, it’s possible that the cable has become frayed or kinked. If switching the charging cable doesn’t work, inspect the charging port on the controller.

How do I know if my PS4 controller is charging or not?

The charge level of the battery appears on-screen when you press and hold the PS button. While the system is in rest mode, the light bar slowly blinks orange. When charging is complete, the light bar turns off. It takes approximately 2 hours to charge the controller when the battery has no remaining charge.

Best answer: Yes. You can replace the internal battery in a DualShock 4 controller, but because this is not intended it will void your warranty and it’s trickier than replacing a normal battery.
