My Xbox 360 wireless controller isn't working. Howdo I fix it?

I tried to turn it on but it just flashed green until I took the batteries out. I waited about ten minutes. I have ad the Xbox since july and the controller has worked fine until now. I am using batteries not the thing you have to charge. I changed the batteries twice just now and it still didn't work. I don't want to buy a new one.

    yea, I'm going with the other anwers, try to re-sync your controller to the console. A play and charge cord can also sync the controller to the console besides the normal button way.

    Don't know if this is the case but when my 360 auto-off's itself(leave it on by mistake or something hits my start button by mistake) it will forget any controllers that were sync-ed to it and I have to re-sync all of my controllers to be able to use them again....if you are still having some trouble figuring out how to sync your controller, there is a guide in your user manual

    Make sure your Xbox isn't broken. Also, you can try reconnecting it to your Xbox. To do that, turn on your Xbox. Then press the small white button on the top of your controller (near the top of the battery pack) and the identical white button on the 360 (near the memory card slots). Hope this helped.

    Did you try to re-sink up the Controller with the Xbox 360.

    There is a small button on the front of the xbox 360. After it has "booted" up press that button, then press the small button on top of the controller.
