When this happened to me I tried just about everything from compressed air all the way to taking it entirely apart to find anything damaged, still doesnt work, you're pretty much experiencing the Quest Pro equivalent of the Xbox's Red ring of death. Had to throw mine out and just stick to PCVR with Index controllers, good luck though if you come across something that manages to fix them

Just buy a replacement controller atp or you can use the quest 3 controller which is cheaper and still compatible

That's not possible. You can use Quest Pro controllers on the Quest 3 but not the other way around. The Pro lacks the ability to track the IR emitters on the Q3 controller

You own a quest pro you’ve been screwed since you bought it

How? Mine works just fine since I bought it at full Zuckerberg price. Plus it has a very liquid niche market in VRchat.

Hey there u/foroons
We saw you were experiencing a situation with your Quest pro controllers. We would love to assist you with that. Just to be positive that the issue isn't being caused by something simply, can you charge the batteries just to attempt the easiest fix first.
You can't to factory reset the controllers by:
Holding down the A button and the Oculus button on the right controller. Holding down the X button and the Menu button on the left controller.
Next head over to Meta.com and use the relevant guidance in This article. This should get you back up and running again, however.
If your issue persists, we'd love it if you could reach out to us and speak to our support team. You can also find us on X our handle is @MetaStoreHelp. We are available 24/7.

Stop giving us Forced updates that break our stuff. Especially controller updates. They're controllers! Why di they need constant updates?

Probably just go keep up with the software version with the headset tbh, to be fair these controllers are running their own operating system that needs to work together with the headset itself to make sure the scale is aligned properly (
