DFGT - Maybe broken?

[Dean]

I've been using my DFGT for about two weeks, and today, it just felt like there wasn't any Feedback left in it. I tried putting a higher value (from 7 to 9), but I couldn't feel any difference at all. I then tried from 9 to 1, and there I felt a big difference. I don't know why, but it used to be very hard for me to turn, but now, it feels like 9 is like, when I started on 1. Have I just gotten use to it, or is the Feedback broken?

how would we know?

i have used wheels for 5 years and they have never lost their feel for me.
Dont know what else to say as i cant think how to test it.

Neither do I... I thought there might be some clever heads around this forum, that can help.

Did you buy it new or used? If the latter of the two, return it. If used, buy a better product.

I bought it new, from a company in Sweden. So you're saying the feedback is broken, or?

If you bought it new and it isn't working as it should then just contact the seller and tell about your problem. The company has to ensure that you get a properly working product.

I don't know if it's working or not, to be honest. It just feels like there isn't any Feedback when I'm on track, but it calibrates just fine...

Try a different game and see what it feels like.

You do get used to the feedback after a while. When i first got my wheel I used to think feedback 5 was too high now 10 isn't strong enough.

Okay I'll try another game. I don't know if I can use (Racedriver) GRID, without having to set all kinds of settings. Plus, it's good it's not only me, who've had this experience.

Make sure that the wheel is calibrated, if on a ps3 make sure everything is plugged in before you turn on the ps3, If on a pc (again) Make sure you install the disc thing support.

I'm on PS3 only.

Anywho, I tried using the wheel with NFS Undercover for PS3. The wheel seemed like it did, when I started using it with GT. I then unplugged it and started GT. I don't know what happened but, now it seems like the problem has become a minor issue...

I also feel no difference between 7-9. Remember this increase the game signal strength sent to the wheel so if the signal maxes out the wheel ffb at 5 then there will be no difference with a higher setting. Most gamers has the game ffb strength set so high that the wheel is turning full power either left or right with nothing in between.
