Brake pedal issues
Hope someone might have some insight to this issue. I have the Fanatec CSR pedals and I noticed last night my cars were locking up with just a small amount of pedal. I went to the telementry screen and noticed that with only about 15 - 20% push on the brake pedal it was indicating full brake pressure in the game.
I wasn't able to find a brake setting under the controller advanced options. Is there a way to adjust this or am I pretty much stuck?
I know the clubsport pedals have a load cell in them (Fanatec replacement part ~ $15.00) and it sounds like this is what is going on if you have clubsport but I'm guessing the CSRs have the same thing but can't be sure. I know the gas pedal has a round sensor halfway up the pedal (connects pedal to connecting bar) that adjusts the signal sent to the wheel so if it was a gas pedal issue this sensor would defintiely be the problem (also replaceable) but I don't think the same pivot piece plays any part in the operation of the brake pedal beyond thats how its constructed.
With the clubsports (V1) I've also experienced the odd pedal issue which often corrects itself after a couple restarts. It doesn't sound too serious or at least we hope thats the case.
Yea the CSR pedals don't have the load cell. I had been really thinking about a pair of the clubsports but with Thrustmaster having a new wheel on the way for the Xbox One I'm gonna hold off on buying anything til after release. Might have to start practicing with the controller since right now just a gentle tap results in total lockup of the wheels.
Believe you said the CSR's don;t have a load cell, so contact Bashmerman and see if you can get one of his adapters; seems like they address a lot of the intermittent signalling issues that the Fanatec pedals encounter.
