a month ago my left paddle stopped downshfting suddenly. I opened my
xbox360 458 italia ferrari wheel and there is a small steel bar dimensions
4mm wide to 2cm length attached to the downshift paddle, which was broken
and fall off its position..Whenever you press the paddle to downshift this
small bar pushes a small button, which looks quite similar to garage
controllers push buttons..well, i couldnt find the same small steel bar, so
i cut a piece from a credit card to same dimensions, and fit it to the
position were the broken steel bar was attached on…only yesterday,after a
month playing witout problem, the paddle died again…i contacted the
thrustmaster technical support site and they will send me the entire
downshift paddle as spare part, for only 10 euros including shipment
charges…i suggest anyone has same problem to do the same.
How ? Did you fix it. Same wheel, pretty much same problem. The downshifter
‘s glitchy. Sometimes it works just fine other times i can bang away at the
downshifter nothing happens. Next race works just fine. And i am using it
on a playstation so i doubt i can do much with drivers ?
Its not a compatibility thing it worked fine for over a year ?
I am not into carg games but I really enjoy fixing things. It so happened
that I have a friend whose downshifter had the similar problems. First the
spring went (we fixed that), then some plastic part of the upshifter
broke… fixed that too; and almost simultaneously both shifters started to
missfire. Changing the time gap to 250m/s will work if your software allows
for it but finally the buttons will stop working. We changed the buttons
inside the wheel and working till today. Regards.
i dont race on iracing… so… i dont know
what is the software called that is in this video
For rFactor, go to your .PLR and find line: Repeat Shifts=”0″ and try to
change values to your liking. What it does is it “ignores” shift command
until it have been (example) 100ms since last shifting, which should
prevent faulty button to shift 3 gears down by itself. “1” would give you
100ms time gap, “2” 150ms, “3” 200ms, “4” 250ms, and using value “5” will
prevent shifting again before the previous shift is completed. Hope it
helps!
I have a problem with downshifter. If I turn the wheel to the right it
works fine. If I turn it to the left it doesn’t work !!??!! Ive tried the
latest drivers but nothing happened. Windows 7 x64 Any ideas?
it’s the wheel’s driver
MIGHT be a connection problem in your wheel
I had the same problem. Put the problem advanced and now both my paddle
shifters are like that. Should I do something with the levers which click
the buttons inside the wheel?
No Problem mate! and Thanks for all the excellent sounds you are producing
for rFactor community!
I have this problem too. Any idea’s for iracing?
IT WORKED! Thank you so much, mate. You don’t know how important this means
to me. God bless you and thanks for the support! 😀
