Default PS2 Logitech Driving Force Pro

Hey there, i have a logitech driving force pro steering wheel and recently the brake pedal has been playing up, whereby the brake would activate itself after lifting off the accelerator pedal in GT4. I was wondering, how long is the warranty on the steering wheel since i bought it back in 2k5 and if not, how could i get it fixed.


Regards

Bungfritz

I had an issue with my MOMO racing one where the brake was constantly on, after reinstalling drivers and everything it suddenly worked again. Have you tried disconnecting power and connection a couple of times and seeing if that works?

yea, its sort of a chronic problem, ie its happened for the last couple of times i was playing on my ps2. Tried reconnecting all the connections and that didnt work. The brake is sensitive to bumps, ie if u bump the pedals without touching the actual brake, it would suddenly activate itself. So generally after i lift off the accelerator, it would initiate a small rebound froom the accelerator which would activate the brake for no reason. Annoying as it screws up my gameplay in gt4.

That describes my situation 100% accurately.

just an update, i tried opening up the pedals and blew into the pots. After i hooked everything back up, the pedals seem to work fine again now so if anyone appears to have these problems, try doing what i did
