Alright yall, I got a weird scenario for you: So I was playing Assetto corsa, and All the sudden my force feedback was just GONE. Still able to move the wheel and was finishing a race, but Its completely gone. Then I turned off the wheel and turned it back on and it doesn't even calibrate itself. It wont work anymore and is stuck in blinking calibrating thing, but motors won't work. I opened it up, and nothing seems broken. Any ideas?

did you make sure it wasn't a software issue first? download ghub, if you don't already have it, and check for updates. also, did you make sure the power brick is fully plugged in(and working correctly)? mine doesn't calibrate until the power is plugged in.

Already tried reinstalling drivers, this is a hardware issue. For some reason force feedback motors completely gave out, and it won't center itself/calibrate.

i would double check the power brick is fully plugged in and outputting the correct voltage if you have a voltmeter handy. otherwise, could be a burned out motor(not sure if the wheel will still try to function with 1 motor bad??), or issue with the pcb. after ensuring the pcb is getting power from the wall, i would next test each motor works, they use 12v afaik. if both motors work, and the board is getting power, probably safe to assume it's a bad board.

Can do, I'll start looking into that. Yeah we are thinking its fried, I was doing a 4 wheel drive drift in an all wheel drive car and REALLY throwing the wheel, so I probs over torqued the motors or something.

I think your on to something with the power adapter actually. I put a multimeter to it and set it to 20v, and the multimeter keeps going 0.020,0.000,0.040,0.00 and keeps doing values between 0.010 and 0.040 every couple seconds.
