Xbox – No power when using the Xbox 360 Play N’ charge kit

controllersxbox-360

I have a 360 wireless 360 controller and a play n' charge kit, but I'm not getting any power from it. I plug it into the Xbox/3rd party USB wall chargers/laptop, and nothing.

And when I say no power, I mean no power to even turn the controller on. It started where it would only work when there was no battery in the controller, and now not at all. Has this happened to anyone before? Did it just give out?

For more information, I have multiple controllers and multiple battery packs, but only one charging cable, so I assume it is the cable itself?

How long have you had it? The play and charge kits are notorious for the batteries dying. If you have another controller try it on that as well, also try using AA batteries to make sure it isn't the controller.
