How to Fix Black Ops Cold War Controller Disconnect Issue

Now, if in case, you think that only turning on the controller or reconnecting it to the PS4 console does the job then it isn’t. Meanwhile, the controller refuses to connect to the console until the console gets restarted. The most frustrating thing is that it happens every time. We can expect that the patch fix is on its way but as of now, we have a workaround for you.

  • All you need to do is to simply reconnect your DualShock 4 controller to the PS4 console via a USB cable.
  • Head over to the Settings > Select Devices > Go to Controller > Select Communication Method.
  • Here you’ll need to switch the controller communication method from “Use Bluetooth” to “Use USB Cable”.
  • You’re good to go now.

Make sure that if you don’t change the method from the following the above steps, your controller will continue to connect via Bluetooth instead of the USB cable option.
