Potentiometer G27

[Rjmp]

Hey My Friends.
I have great doubts about the G27 potentiometers.
They have three pins, and what is each pin?

The g27 is the second picture ?
Tks for all
Have a good day
ps: the sensor measures the acceleration by the current or the voltage?

Dont have a g27 but would suspect it too be input, ground and signal

Why are you adding a ground wire to the pot? How many wires does the original setup have? There really only needs to be 2 wires hooked up to the pot.

The way a pot works is by changing the resistance, you feed your voltage into the center pin and you can get the output on either of the two outside pins. On one of the outside pins your pedals will work correctly, on the other they will just be the opposite of what they should be. (on one outside pin the resistance will go up with clockwise turn of the pot, on the other outside pin the resistance will go down with clockwise turn.)

but if you have 3 wires VCC and GND SING1 you can take the tension of the wire through without problems.
Playing it on an analog input ...
But with 2-wire VDC and SING1 not have as you get the tension.
I was wondering if the G27 uses 2 or 3 wires?
thank you

It has 3 wires.

And the potentiometer on the brake pedal has been causing me grief of late, flickering on by about 10 percent. It's easily fixed, but damn it's sensitive...
