Hi, this video shows 3 ways to connect your PS4 Controller to the PlayStation 4, PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro.
The 1st Option is at 0:44 and shows you how to sync up multiple controllers via a USB cable.
The 2nd Option is at 4:52 and shows you how to connect up additional controllers via Bluetooth without using a USB cable.
The 3rd Option is at 6:16 and shows you how to connect up just one controller via Bluetooth without using a USB cable. For this option you need to have already set up HDMI CEC and it uses the TV remote control as the 1st controller which then allows you to sync up the proper PS4 controller.
In the video I give examples of how to fix problems like resetting the controller and power cycling your PS4 console so hopefully if you are having problems then one of the options in the video will work.
Many thanks Vince

If you don’t have a second controller you can still use the ps4 second screen app to connect the controller through Bluetooth. Like this comment because it might seriously help someone.

Tried every method on youtube didn’t work used about 5 cables didn’t work. When I brought a ps4 licenced cable worked straight away make sure you like so others see

@mtvso8000 4 года назад

did the same. did not work

@paulfletcher5632 4 года назад

I found the original ps4 cable it worked straight away

@amirhamzahamha 3 года назад

I resorted to all the steps but there is also a need to delete the other controllers already registered on the PS4 if the number of devices was already max.

@amirhamzahamha 3 года назад

@sanama endon go to devices and if you see a long list of controllers, delete one or all and it will begin accepting new controllers

Dude, I couldn’t not for the love of God get my controller to connect any other way other than the Bluetooth way and no one else said to go to the Bluetooth settings on the PS4 to connect it. You sir, have saved my life. Thank you!

Turns out I was using a crappy cable, but ultimately found the original. 5 years after posting this video, and you are my hero.

I’ve a question one of my usb port is broken can I still use 2 controllers by using that remaining usb port? Pls answer

My controller stopped working after i connected it to my iPhone XR i finally got it to reconnect. I did it by going in to devices Bluetooth devices and i got my other controller, that still works and held the share and PS button at the same time. If it doesn’t work forget every other Bluetooth device except the working one. Do this by clicking on them hitting options then forget device then i held the 2 buttons and it came up and i reconnected it. Everyone like this so it will help others!!!

@420beefman6 5 лет назад

Legit all the guides i found on google were completely useless, none of them mentioned the differences in the usb cables which was the only thing that i hadnt tried, thanks for the guide dude.

@sydneyfletcher7783 5 лет назад

SAMMEEE. i was using usb's with 2 wires so I looked for one with a thicker cord (to guestimate 4 wires) and it worked fine!

@isaacfausett5662 4 года назад

I know this is an old video but this was super helpful. The commentary about the lead requiring four cables made the whole thing make sense. Thanks a million!

@apaulinaria 3 года назад

Thanks for the help! Out of all the tutorials you were the only one that explained that different cords have a different amount of wires in them and that’s why mine wasn’t connecting.

@tattedmofo5680 Год назад

Agreed! 10 other videos did not help. This one fixed both of my jacked remotes.

@vanamstel_nl 4 года назад

I’ve tried many many options, watched many video’s etc. The second option worked for me. None of my controllers wanted to connect. I plugged in a USB keyboard and did the Bluetooth trick. Scrolling down, there was my controller. You’ve made my day! Thank You 🙏

@Dz0ka 3 года назад

@JuicyJuices 4 года назад

The 2 wires vs 4 wires on the micro USB really helped! Mine would only charge with one wire but I changed wire to my phone one and it worked!

4:54 I've been looking a a lot of videos trying to find how to pair a ps4 controller to a ps4, they all just said to use a cable that I don't have. Finally I found your video that showed how to use the Bluetooth pairing mode, my controller was paired to my ps3, so thank you.

@aggressiveblade3674 3 года назад

ALRIGHT I KNOW THIS WORKS FOR SOME PEOPLE BUT THERE IS A OTHER WAY OK.. All you need to do is install a app called PS4 REMOTE PLAY when you install it press start then it will connect to the PS4 and then go to Bluetooth devices and then hold share the hold the PS4 button then your all set DONT LET THIS FLOP. Wait you have to turn on your PS4 First just let it connect don't press connect manually
