    I can imagine perhaps that the USB connector on the pad is dirty or not making contact very well. The cable might also have a break in it of course. It's always hard to spot the actual fault. The PS3 is a great system with loads of games for it. Right now is a good time to build a PS3 collection. The games are really cheap.

    My pads are fully charged but the light just keeps blinking when disconnected from the USB cable. When I put it on with USB cable it connects. It’s like the ps3 can’t connect through Bluetooth. Another thing, I used a PS4 controller before as well and it us3d to work through Bluetooth. And now, the Bluetooth won’t connect to it. So I think it’s the Bluetooth issue. Edit: it’s definitely a wi-fi/bluetooth problem. It’s weird because it was working a few days ago up until now. All of a sudden my controller isn’t connecting unless it’s connected through a USB Cable. So now, I tested my wi-fi connection and it keeps failing. Which is weird. So I believe it’s affecting the Bluetooth as well trying to connect through sync.

    It would likely need a new port soldering on. Depends on your skills and kit. But I think that is a last option.

    Sorry for the delay. If they work on your console and you are using same controllers and usb cable then it could either be a USB connector issue on that console or an issue with the wireless module but that would normally allow you to connect via cable.

    I've seen a couple of comments with this problem. It could be a faulty connection between the console and the controller. I'd try different control pads and see if they connect, or your pads on another console if possible. Could still be the controller battery not holding enough charge.
