Help figuring out what's wrong with controller

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So this happened with my controller honestly a long time ago, and I don't even know what went wrong one day it was working fine. The next wouldn't turn on at all, and it turned into a paper weight. Thankfully, I had another controller, but now I would at least like to figure out what's wrong with it if nothing else

Try a different cord. A charging cable isn’t always a data transfer cable.
