If you have a good battery, you could probably just use two pins to connect the two batteries together.. assuming the other battery is good and fully charged. That might give it enough power so that the controller recognizes it and accepts a charge.
I had several Move controllers with this same issue (worked fine when plugged in but wouldn't charge & would shut off instantly when unplugged) and I was able to revive all of them just by using the official PS Move charging dock (model CECH ZCC1). Not sure why this works, but it does 🤷♂️. So potentially this is something cheap & easy to try before resorting to disassembling the controller - the charging docks are very cheap (the secondhand one I bought was US$10 shipped on eBay).
My controller has the exact same problem, it blink only connected with cable and charge but then doesn't turn on. Any help with amateurs that doesn't have all that equipment, and also, can i leave it 30 hours charging?
An easy solution would be to buy a replacement battery and replacement the old one inside the controller with the new one. Charging it for 30 hours won't work because once you have this problem, the battery just won't accept any current. The same problem occurs in PS3 navigator too, if you are interested, you can watch my latest video about it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Kz6I8Wa9mvE.html
It seems to me that your battery is fine, but it refuses to pair. Can you try resetting your controller by pressing the small reset button hidden underneath?
@@hardwarerepair200 I had the same issue. We didn't use these controllers for many years, when I tried connecting them recently.. red light was blinking and power was not staying. when I plug the cable, it works fine and as soon as I disconnect the cable it turns off. I have this problem for PS3 controller, move and navigation controllers. I ordered respective replacement batteries and replaced all the betteries. Still the same issue, it says fully charged but when I unplug the cable it turns off. I thought may be the battery quality was not good, and planned to return it..After seeing this video, now I get it. How do we revive the battery from house? I don't have the device that you are showing in the video. Is there any way to wake up the battery to charge? Thanks
My move battery was blinking for about an hour, than after that the light will go off. But still do not turn on when the button pressed. It will on go on when the cable plugged directly to the ps3. What is the possible problem sir? Do you think i can still revive the battery?
Yes, it sounds possible to revive the official battery. But you need a power supply that could supply at least 35V. You don't need a high current, just a high voltage with 0.01A current limit. Once you turned on the power supply in CC mode set to 0.01A, you will see that the voltage goes up to 35V and drops back to 2-3V very quickly. But be careful not to exceed 0.01A throughout the process. Otherwise it might be dangerous.
@@hardwarerepair200 alright thank you for the confirmation sir, i just thinking about it but as you stated in the vid, the numbers itself give me a chill down my spine for no reasons. Dang 😅
@@AbeRemindingYTOfficial If you have a proper power supply with constant current (CC) mode, 35V is quite safe. But if you don't have a power supply, generating 35V yourself is super dangerous. So better don't try it if you don't have a proper power supply.
@@hardwarerepair200 i do have a power supply, but not like a Lab model you owns in the video. But to get a CC mode working, i need to short the wire in between. Is it the proper way sir for that kind of model?
@@AbeRemindingYTOfficial What is the model of your power supply? Not all power supplies need to do that short to enter CC mode. Some power supplies don't even have a CC mode. So better check the manual of your power supply to see how to enter the CC mode first. Or you can tell me the model of your power supply, and I will have a quick look for you
Yes, it is completely normal to fully charge it in 3 hours. Back then, I simply left it charging in my workshop for two days while I was taking a break.
Thanks for watching! That cable at 1:15 is called jst 2.0 ph 2-pin connector. I have a new video for PS3 navigator which is also very similar. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Kz6I8Wa9mvE.html
Sorry, another thing I've noticed on some other sites they mention about freezing the battery after the first full charge after the battery has woken up, is this important or necessary? What is this for? Thanks for any advice you can give me.
To be honest, I have never heard of the freezing method before. After reading a bit more online, it seems that that there is no scientific proof to it. So I think it won't work. chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/5471/reviving-li-ion-battery-in-freezer
Whenever i charge mine it blinks red slowly but when i try to turn it on it blinks red really fast It it possible to restore it with or just buy a new battery
I was just having this problem, little charging light blinking really fast and not connecting to the console. I plugged it in directly to the PS4, used a pin on the back of the controller to reset it, and when I pressed the PS button it worked like normal and connected again
Sorry for the late reply. If you are asking why the ball doesn't light up in my video, my controller wasn't connected to a PS3. I charged it using a PS3 controller AC adaptor CECHZA1. The ball light up only when it is paired with a PS3.
CV = constant voltage CC = constant current Я купил его б/у на eBay. Но любой источник питания с функцией CC (постоянный ток) и напряжением до 35 В или выше может справиться с этой задачей.
Well, if the proper battery replacement is available, then yes. But the batteries available out there are all third party low quality batteries. So, you either replace the SONY one with a worse one or try to revive the SONY one. I agree that neither of them are good solution, but I prefer reviving the SONY one.
