  1. When I try pairing the controller I turn it on and it started flashing and it was already paired to something so I pressed the black button and it turned off. I tried again and it came up but it said pairing unsuccessful what do I do

  2. If you’re trying to connect your Xbox controller back to your Xbox get a charger plug it into your Xbox and plug it into your Xbox controller hold down the Xbox button and play with it for a little and you should I have it connected
