Wii U Pro Controller Not Working

My wii u froze, while I was playing monster hunter tri ultimate. I unplugged my wii u from the power outlet. And then turned the wii u console back on. The gamepad worked perfectly, but the controller did not respond. I pressed a key on the controller to test if it worked, nothing happened, none of the 4 blue lights flashed. Only light that worked was the one for charging. I had this controller for over a month and no problems until now.

There is a small hole on the back, to the right of the sync button and a visible screw.

Use a pin or something to press it in for like 10sec - it will reset the controller. Worked for me.

A bit more info please?

- Have you charged it completely?

- If you press the SYNC button the the back, can another Bluetooth capable device (such as a PC or sometimes a phone) recognize the controller?

- Have you pressed the SYNC button on the controller followed by pressing it on the Wii U as well to see if it can connect?

Some statements:

- The RED light indicates a drained or low battery. The ORANGE light indicates that the controller is charging.

- I don't think that the Wii U Pro Controller can indicate it's battery level with its four blue LED's (I might be wrong...)

Yes i pressed the SYNC botton it didnt work

1. Press the Synchro-Button on the Controller, so that it blinks.

2. Press the red Synchro-Button on the WiiU, so that it pairs again.

This Method worked, when my Afterglow-Controller turned my WiiU off, everytime someone tried to use it.

par

When you push a button on a Wii-/WiiU-Controller, the 4 LEDs, used to show what player you are, tend to flash, indicating how much the Battery is charged.

Did you have a non nintendo screen protector on? We bought an "icon" brand screen protector. It worked at first the first couple days we had the Wii. The next day, the gamepad became completely unresponsive. After we tried what other people said, which was take the battery out. It worked a little bit. but the screen was jittering back and forth, we couldn't click on anything. Some of the buttons worked again but not all. after troubleshooting for 4 hours, we finally decided to take off the icon screen cover. WOW! Now it works perfectly. My husband had read that nintendo said other screen covers could mess up the Gamepad, and they weren't kidding.

My suggestion is if you have anything non Nintendo, to stop using it and take it back.

I had the same issue. What I found to be the fix after calling Nintendo was to turn the Wii U console on before the game pad'. As goofy as it sounds, this was my fix.

Hopefully that helps.

Is there an orange light and does it show it is charging. If so, charge it then wait until the battery finishes then press a button and it will work. It takes a long time to finish the battery. I have an afterglow pro controller and the same thing happened. I waited and it worked, I hope this will work for you as well.

My wii u pro controller (black) charges fine, displaying a orange light and it (the light) times out after 25-30 minutes.

When I hit the sync button, nothing happens. The controller stays in a normal state.

There are 3 things on the back of my controller: a sync button, a screw and a hole (about the same size as the sync button, slightly smaller)

I’ve watched 3 videos and seen 2 forums and apparently nobody I’ve seen has this problem.

I tried to use Nintendo’s forums, but for some reason it keeps on saying ‘the link you used to access this page is no longer valid’ despite using it 1-2 minutes after the link was sent (it said 24 hours max) so I had to find something new.

Could you please tell me what my problem is? I’ve tried most of the things that you’ve used but they don’t work.
