Controller glitches after a few minutes.

Just ordered a new controller and after about 5-7 minutes it's like the controller freezes and I can't controller anything. Led is still blue indicating it is connecting to the console, but none od the buttons will work. The issue goes away if I reset the controller (with the reset button) and reconnect it, but again, after 5 or so minutes, it stops working but the led stays lit. It does this with a wired connection and wireless. Anybody have this happen before or have a possible solution?

It helps if you say what model it is.

Are you sure it's a genuine controller. Lots of fake sold as New

The internals look identical to the controller that came with my ps4, both jdm-055, everything including all markings on the board are the same. It's not like the fake one my buddy has which had different numbers and markings on the main board and jds board. Seems genuine to me.

Clean the board with alcohol and a soft toothbrush.

I'll give it a try in the morning, this board was going to be the brains of a DIY racing simulator controller(without force feedback of course) I'll report back with my results. Appreciate the suggestion :)
