I got some liquid in the accelerator pot of my MS Precision Racing Wheel Pedals. Now it doesn't have the full range. For example when calibrating in GPL it just goes from 17 to 64. This is fine for games which have their own calibration screen but for games that use the game controller panel for the calibration settings I am unable to get proper acceleration. I was thinking of a few possible remedies: Replacing the pedal unit? Do Microsoft sell the pedals seperatly or is their another make that will work? Replace the Pot? Is this possible? Can you get them seperatly? Switch the brake and accelerator pot? Is this possible by just switching the wiring across? Configuring the sidewinder software to trick it into accepting the current range as the full range? This would be the easiest but I can't find anything that allows you to adjust the pedal sensitivity or range. Which of the above are possible? Whatever the fix, it will have to be comparitivly cheap as there is no way I can afford a complete wheel set again and I see no reason to replace the actual steering wheel as it works fine. Any help is appreciated. Chris -- GPL FD League http://www.egroups.com/group/gplfd Simbok Racing www.geocities.com/simbokza Remove _your_clothes before replying
Hi Chris, I have a MSFF wheel that no longer works properly and you are more than welcome to have one of the pots from the brake assembly if you want. It should just drop right in. Bye, Ian_R
