To reset a PS5 controller, follow these steps:
- Turn off the PlayStation 5 console.
- Locate the reset button on the back of the controller, near the L2 button.
- Use a small object, such as a paperclip or pin, to press and hold the reset button for a few seconds.
- Release the reset button, then turn on the PlayStation 5 console.
- The controller should now be reset and ready to be paired with the console.
If you are having trouble resetting the controller, try the following:
- Make sure the controller is charged and turned on.
- Try resetting the controller a few more times, making sure to hold the reset button for a few seconds each time.
- If the controller still won’t reset, try connecting it to the console using a USB cable and see if that helps.
- If none of these steps work, you may need to replace the controller or bring it in for repair.
