Issue

Cause

Solution

Controller not connecting when plugged in

You potentially may be using a power only cable, ensure it also transfers data.

Double check the cable that you are using, and ensure it transfers data as well as power.

Occasional disconnects on ProGCC 3

Bad Cable, Too Many Pro Cons connected

Attempt using another USB-C cable, over time cables can become damaged from movement. Disconnect any unused Pro Controllers from the console, removing all and adding them back one by one is a good solution.

My face buttons are swapped, A is B, B is A, X is Y, Y is X

You have rebinded the buttons on your controller.

Enter the config website to update them back to normal. (See Hoja 2 Config Tool )

Bumper buttons feel mushy

Membrane placement/ Brand

The membranes dictate the feel of the bumper buttons, you should make sure they are thoroughly seated. If you want a tougher button press then try the OEM style membranes as they are springier than other unbranded ones.

Home/Minus not pressing right/always pressing right

Buttons are binding in the shell

You can trim the shell to fix this issue, as well as adjusting the screw tightness can resolve this issue. See the guide here

Rumbles are moving too much

The rumbles have either come out of their adapter or the glue holding them to the shell came off.

If you are not using an adapter to make the speaker fit into the shell, you can use cotton to fill the well that the rumbles sit in. If you are using an adapter then ensure the motor is fully seated into it.

Sticks are acting off and not responding correctly

The controller has lost its calibration for various reasons (specific updates, errors, etc)

Go to the calibration website and calibrate the sticks again.

Rumbles are violent even after turning down to 1%

Your board may have a defect causing them to be over powered.
