My Dualshock 4 stopped charging after I had used it for a couple of months (previous owner too so not sure how long it's been in use). I did the first fix I read which was to change the Micro USB port which I have done.
Now, when I plug the controller in, it turns on for a fraction of second then straight back off again with no glowing orange light to indicate it is charging whereas before it wouldn't turn on at all, even when plugged in before I replaced the port.
My question is, do you think it's now the battery that needs replaced or because it has been dead for so long, will it take it's time to decide to charge again?
PS Support are useless as the controller is out of warranty so they aren't interested in helping me.
Just want to know what others think before I decide to change the battery.
