I can confirm from my end that the method mentioned works!
I've found somewhat of a solution from this, the reason behind this is, even tho I had just one controller it showed 2 and found this link, and actually fixed the whole issue in general.

It's a bit of a hassle with the cable, but I believe it won't be a problem for some
After you uninstall the Bluetooth device - make sure it's the controller, no something else.
No need to log into steam, straight from the EA app, This is what happened:
I've deinstalled the Bluetooth devices from device manager (the 2 controllers) and connected with a USB to type C, the LED flashed and stopped (during the USB connection, no need for the Bluetooth to be on), however the controls worked in game perfectly.
A moment ago tried again with Bluetooth to connect before launching the game and it worked, probably as it recognized the device from the USB connection previously - doesn't make sense I know.
You should give this a try as I've tried it and played for like 40mins with no issues hope it works for you guys as it's the only possible solution at this time. No offense to Hux, problably the lad is doing his job, but I believe that nobody, except the ppl that have the issue actually red what the actual issue is when the issue is with FC25 THE NEW GAME THAT JUST RELEASED FOR THE ULTIMATE EDITION
and not the FC24 which probably doesn't have active servers any longer. @EA_Hux Please report this issue to the relevant ppl to look into it.
