My madcatz 8860 wireless headset will not charge and I don't know why.. It was working perfectly fine 2 days ago but now when I turn it on it turns on but then the red light starts to flash meaning it needs to be recharged so I recharge it and the red charing indicator will not go on? Please help
ITS ONLY 1 MONTH OLD!!
SOURCE: pairing my headset with ps3
hold your power button till the light blinks blue red fast then scan select 8860 then pass key is 0000
SOURCE: forgot pass key
I was having the same problem. I input 0000 several times and was about to murder my headset. I got crazy and lifted the headset so as to show and say "here is the device, you !@##$# " and input the 0000 again. And it worked!
So maybe all that was required was to bring the headset in level with the PS3 console the first time you are entering the passkey. please let me know if it worked for any of you guys.
I hope this will solve the problem.

Even though you can use regular AAA batteries (that you would have to replace often), there is a huge convenience factor with using the charging cradle that comes with the Sony headset. A solution I found was that I ordered some 550 mAh AAA batteries through Ebay (they came from England and cost me $8 total for four batteries). To make them work in the Sony headset you MUST use the bottom part of the plastic battery holder piece (all you need to do is peel off the BP-HP550-11 label and the bottom half of the plastic battery holder piece slips off of the Sony batteries). Then just slip in the new AAA batteries into the plastic battery holder bottom and then insert into the headset. The reason why you must use the bottom of the battery holder plastic piece is because the plastic piece pushes on a little switch. This switch activates the charging mechanism to enable the cradle charger to charge the batteries. NOTE: I am not an electronics expert so I do not know if there would be any problem using other rechargeable AAA batteries (with higher mAh ratings). So I decided to be safe than sorry and ordered the 550 mAh batteries through Ebay.
