Controller Chaos? Here's How to Reset Your PS5 DualSense!

Is your PS5 DualSense controller acting up? Maybe it's not connecting, glitching during gameplay, or just refusing to cooperate. Don't panic! Resetting your controller is a quick and easy fix for many common issues.

Here's how to do it:

1. **Locate the Reset Button:** Turn your DualSense controller over. You'll find a tiny hole on the back, near the L2 button. This is the reset button.
2. **Grab a Pin:** You'll need a small, straightened-out paperclip or a SIM ejector tool to press the button inside the hole.
3. **Press and Hold:** Gently insert the pin into the hole and press the button down for about 5 seconds.
4. **Re-Pair:** After resetting, you'll need to re-pair your controller with your PS5. Connect the controller to your console using a USB cable and press the PS button.

That's it! Your DualSense should now be working correctly. If you're still experiencing problems, you may need to explore other troubleshooting steps or contact PlayStation Support.
