@melbmatt50 said in 8bitdo SF 30 Pro Controller not charging or pairing properly:
Trying to get help with my SF 30 Pro controller. I have recently reformatted an sd card and installed a fresh image on it for my 3b+. For some reason when I press the appropriate keys to pair it to retropie, despite finding it, the options are not the same and it doesnt appear to pair properly.
The only light which I can get to appear on the controller is the red light near the usb connection which blinks. This it also does during charging through its usb cable, which from what I have read should be a solid light. I don't know why it is doing these things and if possible I would just like to factory reset the controller and start out as if it was a new one.
Holding on the Y button and pressing start is what got it working for me doing it the Xbox controller method for some reason just doesn't want to work and my R1 and L2 doesn't want to register when configuring the controller so Switch or Dinput would be your best bet.
