Has anyone has similar issues? Tested the steering wheel on the pc its fine. Unfortunately I dont have another racing sim game.

Is it a setup issue? I've updated the firmware and gt5.

Thanks. :)
 
Don't know if this will help but have you started up the PS3 with no controller apart from the G27 plugged in so it is first controller. Don't know if that makes a difference but it might do.
 
I've tried most, the odd thing is the buttons on the steering wheel including the paddle shifts work. But the car still doesnt freakin turn.
 
did you check the options menu?

try and download a demo of Dirt 3 etc... and see if there is an issue there as well

good luck
 
i have the same problem... i have both g25 and g27.. both have the same problem... wont steer. all buttons and pedals work except the steering... please help us. thank you.
 
Are you sure your power supply is working and is properly plugged in? Does the wheel turn itself when you first power the PS3 on with it plugged in? Because if the supply isn't working and the wheel doesn't calibrate itself, it won't steer but everything else will work.

If you're not sure whether or not the supply is working, I'm not really sure what you could do to test it. If you've got a multimeter you could put it on the voltage setting (NOT the current setting, that is very important), place one probe inside the barrel plug and touch the other on the outer metal part, and see what it reads, and if that's close to what is printed on the supply itself then it's working (obviously). Other than that I suppose you could check the wire for cuts, pinching or general signs of wear but if the wire has been severed inside the insulation it's going to be difficult to tell as it'll look ok from the outside.
