So I've researched thisa bit and found no answers to help me. My BRAND NEW WIRED controller likes to randomly disconnect and I have to unplug it and plug it back in. It does this like every minute or so. I had an old wireless controller it was happening with, thinking it was my controller, I bought this wired one and still have the problem. My xbox has been in the same location forever so it's not wifi interference or any of that junk people think. Only thing it can be is the Xbox itself. Anything I can apart and fix to this problem? I'm pretty close to just getting rid of the whole system anyway, so if there's no solution, i'll sell it
Mine does it too. Everytime you'd move the wire in a certain direction it would disconnect then reconnect instantenously. This would happen 4 or 5 times then need to be reconnected manually again.
Ended up just taping the wire to the back of the controller so it doesn't move.
I had the same issue one day when I put new batteries into my controller. If you put AAs that are kinda loose it'll disconnect (used a cheap brad) but if you put some Duracells, they won't be loose and you should behind. This only helps if it's a battery issue though x)
Check out the Microsoft support site. This sounds like your problem. http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/accessories/wireless-controller-disconnects-frequently-or-cannot-connect
