Hi, I was playing GT5 online when my wheel stiffened up and if you let go of the wheel, it stays in that position even when driving. I checked the power supply and connections and they were fine. If I unplugged the wheel from both the PS3 and power supply, it wont calibrate, it will just stay in that position and the GT Horn Button will flash. When it is unplugged, it is still stiff. Please try to help me with this. Thank you!

sounds like the motor died =/
 
Thats what I didn't want to hear, ok, thanks for letting me know about it, unless someone else has a solution.:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
 
Let it cool down for a bit, I've heard reports of people's DFGT's wheel's dieing half way through the 24 hour races. They just let it sit for a while unplugged to cool down, then it started right back up.
 
doesn't matter if you have warranty or not. call up logitech. say you got it less than a year ago. and they will replace it first you need to send them your old one, then they will send a replacement..

i got my dfgt off of craiglist 2 years ago, then all of a sudden it stopped working, i called them up and told them i had it less than a year. and was replaced within in a month.

good luck

OK, that might be a great idea, since I got it in January. Thanks, I'll try that out.
 
It sounds like the motor or something inside the wheel failed on you. If you can, bring the wheel back to where you got it but if you can't do that just give Logitech a call and tell them what happened. They have great customer service from what I hear.
