Hello everybody I just joined the forum to let you guys know how to solve this problem (well it worked for me so sorry in advance if it does not work for you) First the machine is the black elite model with the 120 HD, I had not played for around a month and when I came to use the controller again it was completely dead! So on went the trusty play and charge kit (black elite version), light went red, as normal 10 later it was green????? Unplugged the cable controller died! Sound familiar? I cleaned all contacts as per shitecrosofts instructions no luck there.

Then by accident I stumbled uncross a method to get it charging again I think it just gets confused! First insert the play and charge kit a little way in just enough to make a contact but not enough to click into place - light goes red - when light goes green slide it out a bit so the green light on the play and charge kit goes out - The green light on the controller should stay on, count to 2 in you head then slide it back in again like before. As soon as the light goes green to tell you its charged slide it back out again I had to do this 3 - 4 times then as if by magic the light just stayed red and carried on charging, its still on now (been 20 minutes) and seams to be charging normally!

I  am very interested to know if this works for any of you guys out there, let me know how you get on and I will do the same - fingers crossed:)
