I thought I'd use the spare shifter wires to hook up to a separate sequential shifter. I extended the wires to a plug, but when i put it all together again, the wheel didn't work in game (it did work on the menu).
It looks like R1 is permanently on now, i don't know why that would be as i only cut and extended the wires. L1 works as you would expect, both on paddle and through the plug. I pulled the R1 connector off the circuit board but it's still showing as permanently on. Testing the pins, I'm getting a bit of resistance between the r1 pins on the circuit board, and this is similar to what i get across l1, so there doesn't appear to be a short there.
Have i broken it - and will it need a new pcb to fix?
Also i spliced into the ground and r3 wires between the circuit board and the button board for a handbrake. However joining these doesn't turn r3 on in the logitech control panel. Oddly, I'm sure i was able to assign handbrake to r3 signal using the spliced wires in dirt 2.
