CSR Shifter - Calibration Every Use!

Hi,

I'm having an issue with my CSR shifter where everytime my wheel reboots it losing the calibration. I didn't get a manual with the shifter (which was brand new from Fanatec direct) but I did read the instructions on how to calibrate on the web. What I am doing is;

1) switch the wheel on, don't make it go into any mode.
2) hold down start and tuning button until I get 6_n on the display.
3) press start with gear in neural then it changes to 6_r, move to reverse hit start and carry on through all the gears. (6_1, 6_2 etc)

Now the instructions i've read all say the screen should go blank after the calibration but mine doesn't - it stays on 6_6? Does that mean i am doing something wrong?

Many thanks,
 
It does the same exact thing on my Carrera wheel with the standard Fanatec 6 speed shifter. But it seems to still work perfect on every game though.
 
I've always done my calibration after going into one of the modes first. Perhaps try that?
 
desperado, you're supposed to choose a platform first:
1. Power on the wheel
2. Choose any platform mode (PS3/PC). Make sure your shifter is connected to
the wheel.

I think there needs to be a single, separate CSR setup/settings thread...preferably started by someone wiling to put in the time to keep it well organized.
 
Thanks for the advice everyone, after your comments still no joy (using pc/ps3 or Xbox mode) so I contacted Fanatec. Seems others are facing the same issue and they hope to fix it in a firmware update a some point in the future. Guess I just have to live with it for now, bit annoying but what can you do!
