Logitech Driving Force GT PS3, Buttons disabled?

Hello Logitech Forum.

 

So, I just received my Logitech Driving Force GT wheel today (yay) and I was playing it with the newly released game Test Drive Unlimited 2.

 

So I was in the middle of an off-road race and I thought it was pretty hard with the wheel, so I decided to change to my standard PS3 controller to complete the race so I could continue with the game :smileyhappy:

 

Now, I tried to change it back to the wheel, but it seems as if the wheel doesn't work? Atleast no the buttons on the wheel itself. The only thing that works is the brake, the gas and the option of turning with my wheel. Nothing else. The D-pad or the

X - O etc. doesn't work. Neither does the R2, L2 etc. And the Gran Turismo logo is very faded compared to what it used to be.

 

But I can enter the game, use the gas and the brake + turning the wheel. But I can't use any of the other buttons? I find that extremely weird, and I think it's broken. I tried everything. Unplugging etc.

I even tried on my parents PS3, and it's the same 3 things that work, the gas, brake and the option of turning the wheel. Nothing else.

 

Anyone ever tried this before? I mean I used it for like 40-45 minutes before I changed to the PS3 controller, and it worked perfect. :smileysad:

 

Anyone tried this and fixed it, or should I return it due to faulty of the wheel?

Okay, I woke up this morning - Plugged everything in, then it worked again.

 

Then I went upstairs to make som breakfast, when I came down. It has the exact same issues, so it only works for 30-45 minutes each time. Tried restarting the PS3 and all, still nothing worked.

 

I'm gonna return this crap wheel.

This is the EXACT same thing that I complained about when I got my wheel back in christmas, it worked for a very small amount of time and then suffered from the things you complained about . I never did get a very helpful anwser at all other than "return it and get a new one", by the time this started to happen the people who bought me the wheel were satisfied it worked and got rid of the receipt, so I'm pretty much screwed and I can't even return it, PLUS they live a different state so AWESOME.

Hi iNymann and Slapmaster5000,

Does the wheel calibrate when plugged in? If not, please contact Customer Support in your region for further assistance/warranty information. Even if you do not have a proof of purchase they may have another solution for you.
