Do you have another xbox? If so, try connecting to that one. Also, try a wired controller.

For further reference DO NOT VACUUM your electronics!! Vacuums cause a LOT of static electricity and more times than not that static electric buildup will fry your systems. If may kill it instantly or it may cause a small ripple in a big pond which could take weeks or even months before you see any side effects. Compressed Air or a rubbing alcohol and a good soft brush are much better options. And for really tough jobs, weak acids left to sit on motherboards and the like for an hour or so work really well. I've revived many a laptop from spills and even complete drenchings before by letting the acid dissolve whatever corrosion or liquid was on the system and then just re-flowing a few sections to make it good as new again.

Ok, that's not as bad, but I would still try to find an alternative first.
