Switch Pro Controller Not Connecting: Fixes

Get a Switch Pro Controller pairing again with the console or PC.

Re-sync with the console

Connect the controller to the Switch dock with a USB-C cable and press the sync button on top. Then go to Controllers → Change Grip/Order.

Reset the controller

Press the small sync button once to reset, then re-pair.

Connect to PC

Hold the sync button until the lights cycle, then add it in Windows Bluetooth settings. Steam has native Pro Controller support — enable it in Steam → Settings → Controller.

Once connected, open our Switch Controller Test page to confirm every button and stick works.
