I just downloaded the demo of forza 6, and was looking forward to downloading the full game after testing my new wheel.
however, I bought a thrustmaster ferrari 458 spider wheel, from ebay, and it doesn’t work and wondered if anyone owns this steering wheel set?
All buttons on the wheel work, as do the pedals in different games, but the steering left or right is not registering at all.
I downloaded a couple of demo’s as well (WRC5 & Sebastian Loeb) both of which are compatible with this wheel, and they are both doing exactly the same as Forza, all buttons work, and pedals, but steering doesn’t work.
Am i missing doing something, is it just a plug in an play wheel or have i done something wrong?
I went into calibration setting in sebastian loeb, and it wasn’t registering on that screen either… i have seen someone play that demo with a wheel on youtube, so it should work.
so, is this a broke one that should go back, or can anyone offer guidance.
I have tried a hard reset of usb ports
I have tried draining the battery fully
I have tried in both standby mode, and power saving.
I have tried alternative usb ports.
Mine does the oppisite, the light comes on, no buttons work, not even the pedals. I’m trying to figure if it has somehting to do with an update. It’s been like this since 4/22/16.
Hello and good morning just quick question has your spider wheel ever worked ?. I just got one
off ebay and I also do not get any steering but all buttons work. Spider 458
Start Xbox with wheel only. Make sure regular controller is off. Do not move wheel while game is starting up. Don’t push buttons or pedals until game is loaded. Adjust sensitivity and add auto clutch if desired. Power on controller for chat if needed. Good luck.
Ive got the same problem. Bought the wheel the other day. Plugged it in this morning for FH3 and no show on steering. Pedals and buttons work just fine though. Ive tried all of the aforementioned fixes with no joy.
same thing happened to me and it has an easy fix, what you are doing is connecting the controller for the xbox before the steering wheel so the game thinks the controller is the main control device. you have to turn the cconsole off plug in the steering wheel in usb port 1 and then turn it on if that does not work its probably broke
hello - sorry to revive an old post but I also have Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 wheel. This was working just fine for months and all of sudden, the wheel movements are not registering properly. I do full turn on the wheel but the game registers slight errartic movements. All buttons and pedals work. I bought a second unit and does the same. Thanks
