Controller Tracking Not Being Picked Up By Lighthouses
Hi, so ive been trying to track my controllers to the lighthouse's ever since lockdown started. The controller is connected to Steam VR just fine and my other controller is working fine too. Earlier, i managed to get both controllers working just fine but for some reason it doesnt want to work now. Ive turned my PC off and on, my lighthouses off and on, my controllers off and on, tried repairing my controllers, switching lighthouse modes and even just restarting Steam VR to no avail. Does anyone have any solutions to this?

First what system you are using? HTC Vive? Valve Index? something else?
Second what modes are the lighthouses?
What do you mean with not working? they don't both get detected? they get detected but are not seen in VR?
Do you have a sync cable connected to the lighthouses?

Sync cable is that long audio like the cable you got in the box? its to connect the base stations if your using them wireless then B and C is correct if they were connected with cable it has been A and B (If I remember correctly (too lazy to check right now :wrynhappy:))

if you try each controller on its own does it track and work?
Do both shows in the SteamVR window?
If you hold them one by the other do they both track?

Can you try with just one base station on and see if that gives you any better result? (to just make sure there set good to work)
