Wii remote extension connector doesn't detect nunchuk
I recently acquired a Wii Remote with built-in Motion Plus. Unfortunately, despite the second hand store (Cex) saying they had tested the controller, the extension connector doesn't seem to work with any of my otherwise healthy Nunchuks.
Is there a way of resetting the controller/Wii remote to see if this will fix the broken port, or is this typically indicative of hardware failure - despite all other functions of the Wii remote working without issue?
(if it is the latter, I will return it)

Why is my nunchuck not connecting to my Wii Remote?
If the Nunchuk isn't responding, it will need to be replaced. Learn more about our replacement options. If multiple Nunchuk Controllers don't work on the same Wii Remote, or if the Nunchuk works in another Wii Remote, then there is likely a problem with the port on the Wii Remote.How do you connect a Nunchuk to the Wii Remote?
The Nunchuk connects to the Wii Remote at its expansion port and is used in conjunction with the Wii Remote. The Nunchuk contains the same motion-sensing technology enabled in the Wii Remote but also includes an analog stick to assist in character movement.How To Synchronize Wii Remotes
