I was wondering if anyone could assist me here?

When I play with my DFGT wheel about 6/10 times after its first use, the brake pedal will become slightly jammed and thus it makes the pressure sensitive pedals act up. For example, even when I don't have my foot on the pedal the brake lights on the car will flicker (or just stay on). This also means that I can't reach top speed and it reals havoc for the slower cars.

Anyone know what I could do to fix this?
 
Try searching much? if you were to type your topic title in the search bar you'd find the answer you seek.
 
If your wheel is in warranty I recommend getting a replacement from Logi. Else yeah, that's the solution, you need to readjust the pots.
 
ist easy to repair it..
i have 2 times and i repair it..
its because the pental gear lost 1 tooth from the start..
open it and put it back the brake gear at the right start.. sorry for my bad
English.
 
If the wheel is new its probably just dirt... I have mine for almost 3 years now and from time to time it happens to me too... and all I do is clean the pedal set and Im set to go (and Ive never even opened the case)... I wouldnt advise opening a new pedal set, if the problem persists after cleaning contact logitech and ask for a replacement, they have a great costumer service (or so Ive heard because I never had any problem with my DFGT)

Great help , applying for a Mod job? are you?
 
I bought a DFGT three weeks ago. After experiencing the same problem two days in, I learned if you just unplug the pedal from the wheel and plug back in it made the problem go away... For a little while.
Realizing this wasn't an acceptable fix with a brand new product I called Logitech and they are exchanging it for a new one, shipping included. My only gripe is the fact that I bought a wheel three weeks ago and haven't used it yet except to find out it was faulty.
 
Wow, surprised to hear this is a problem for people right after purchase. All of my Logitech wheels suffered this problem (I've had 3), but that was after considerable usage. If your wheel is out of warranty, it is easy to fix at least, but one has to wonder about quality control from Logitech (not that my CSR has been bug-free either).
 
I'm having this problem with my pedals I tried the fix above but all wires were tight still I tried making a better contact but no better, my potentimeters look different to the 1s in the guide. any clues?

Ps I got the wheel off my brother who had it sat in a cupboard unused for over a year (so no warranty left) and has only been used for the past 12 weeks.
