Why Won't My Xbox 360 Controller Turn On?
First things first, check the batteries or connect a wired controller to see if that's the issue. Sometimes it's just dead batteries or a loose connection!

I've had my Xbox 360 controller not turn on because the battery contacts inside were dirty. Give 'em a gentle clean with a dry cloth or a bit of rubbing alcohol.
Hot take: It's possible your controller just died. If it鈥檚 been through a lot (um, rage quits?), it might be time to consider replacing it.
Controllers can sometimes desync from the console. Try pressing the sync button on both the controller and the console to re-establish a connection.
Make sure you're using the right batteries and that they're inserted correctly. Pro tip: Rechargeable battery packs can sometimes be finicky, so try standard AA batteries to troubleshoot.
