Dualshock 4 - Wont charge and has no lightbar.

Hi

My dualshock 4 controller has not been used for around 6 months and the battery was completely flat. I went to charge it up / use it on my PC but it wouldn’t charge and the lightbar is not lighting up plus I also got a “USB device malfunctioned” error message.

As its 3+ years old, i bought a new battery and replaced it. It now turns on but it still won’t charge and the lightbar is still turned off.

I checked the JDS-001 USB board and it looks like it’s had a mini explosion (the rest of the controller has no visible signs of damage) so i bought a replacement and fitted that.

It is now being detected by my PC via USB, however it still will not charge and has no lightbar. I’ve checked both ribbon cables (The original and the one that came with the replacement USB board) and made sure the connections are secure but still no charge and light.

I’m at a loss to fix this, i don’t have a second controller to hand to check if the new USB board is working as intended but the fact that it is now working via a wired connection leads to me to think the issue is something deeper.

Can anyone help me please?
