I have a CSR Fanatec wheel with Club Sport pedals with Firmware 737 which hasn't gave me any problems since I have installed it (a few months). A couple weeks ago I noticed when I booted up the wheel at first when I would press the gas it would only give me a little of gas in game with my pedal pressed. I would turn off wheel and turn it back on and it would ve fine. But now when I race my gas will fluctuate in game...I noticed it seems to give me issues with the more I move the gas pedal...What gives??...I have unplugged and plugged back in cords on the wheel and into the pedals...Anyone got any ideas??
 
You probably should check the little connector under the pedal for good contact and cleanliness. I had that problem once.

I doubt that it would be something worse cause the CS pedals are very reliable.

I have connected/reconnected every possible wire going to and from the pedals/Wheel. Everything looks tight and secure. I did a google search on it and it seems that if you change from Sim to Normal steering you can get this. It just so happens I did changed from Sim to Normal RIGHT before this started. Didnt think the two had anything in common. As soon as I get home today Im going to go back to Sim and see if this helps....:boggled:
 
Also on the fanatec website you can check your pedals signal, dl the program and connect pedals to pc.
 
I know something simular to that happened to me with my CSR Elite pedals around the time of the xbox update. I rebinded my wheel and it seem to correct the problem. I guess it counld'nt hurt for you to try rebinding it.
 
What do you mean by "rebinding"???

I tried to put my steering back to Simulation and it didnt help. So I changed it to "assisted" and it didnt do it in that mode. So turned it back to Simulation and problem solved. Today Im going to try to put it back to "normal" mode and see what happens
 
Reconnecting the wireless connection, like when you first got the wheel( or any wireless controller)you had to bind it to the console. Sometimes making a new wireless connection between the console & Wheel/controller will solve some issue's.
 
I've a similar issue with a brand new set of CSR Elite pedals. All is great except the throttle. I have a jittery dead spot in the throttle. I've set the throttle pin in every conceivable possibility to no avail. I've blown it out, and used tuner cleaner on it and the song remains the same. I use my wheel/pedal/shifter mainly in Xbox but I hooked it up to the PC and went into the game controller setup menu where you can calibrate the pedals and it confirmed it. I have to push down almost a third if the way to get the throttle to register. In a game it's a mixed bag of tricks. Off the line it will hesitate and refuse to catch any RPM's. A few seconds later it will pick up and go. It really bites as far as being able to get a jump on anyone. I took a video of this showing the pushing of the pedal and the dead spot on the throttle graph and sent it to Fanatec. They addressed it pronto, and informed me another set was on the way. When they arrive, I pack up my set, send it in to them and they even credit the shipping back to me. Sweet! As far as what the problem is, at first glance I'd think it was a defective potentiometer, however it goes to a mini electrical control board so I guess it could be either. The more I think about it, I think it's a circuit board issue.:confused:Dunno...
