Your Xbox 360 controller is probably flashing because it can't find the console. Make sure your console is powered on and within range. If that doesn't help, try resyncing the controller by pressing the connect button on the console and then on the controller.

I've had this problem before! Try changing the batteries in your controller. Sometimes low battery levels can cause connection issues.

Check if there are too many wireless devices nearby interfering with the connection. Move other devices away and try again.

Honestly, sometimes it's a simple software glitch. Restart your Xbox 360 and controller; that often clears up the issue.

It could be broken. Maybe it's time for a new controller?
