Resetting the V5 Controller – VEX Library

Tools that could be used to reset the Controller are shown together. In this example, there is a hex key, a VEX shaft piece, and a paper clip.

You will need a long, thin tool. A hex key, a VEX shaft, or even a paper clip can work.

Back of the V5 Controller is shown with a specific hole highlighted and pointed out by an arrow. The reset button hole is close to the center of the Controller's back, just above the specification label.

The reset button is a white button that is located at the bottom of the hole closest to the center of the controller.

You can confirm that this is the correct hole by using a flashlight and peering into the hole. You should see a white button, not a screw.

One end of a hex key is shown being pressed into the reset button to reset the V5 Controller.

Use the tool from the first step to press and hold the reset button for 5 seconds.

Then release the button and power the controller back on.
