Hi agen,

Yes so thats a fact that the power is ok but if windows is picking it up well i would of thought it would work when the software is on. BTW i have found that on ebay auctions that they charge slightly abit more than it would cost (to make a profit) because i bought a mp3 player and it cost including P&P £2.50 and they charged me a fiver. Im thinking that it must be the (forgot the name the power lead you plug into the back of the steering wheel is Bust?)

DMWRIGHT

So i have to pay the shipping because they sent me a turd product.
Ridiculous!

ME i would report it to ebay(sorry for different posts)

most (ie all but mine) are just "see what everyone else is charging and charge the same" for postage - im not over keen on this practice, although TBH sometimes it is sodding expensive (ie my old wheel is costing me a tenner to post!) - although normally they do that as if they get a refund they still make money on the postage (namely why i never by a 1p item - if its broken i get a penny, not the £30 they "claim" it is to post!)

Yes i have to agree with you, Because there are some video camcorders which are costing £40- £50 to post!

Let's get this clarified.

When i plug in the power adapter no light appears on the wheel although i tried just plugging in the adapter and it got slightly warm.

When i plug in the USB cable windows reconises it as an unknown device.

To send it back i;m going to have to pay about the same amount of money i paid to get the wheel and there's a good chance that could be faulty too!

Is there any way i can repair the wheel myself and what do i need to repair?

you could pull a Best Buy Best Return.

basically, buy a logitech racing momo from them. go back home, unpack the new one, pack up the old one. then go back to the store and tell them your parents /or wife said you could not have it and want to return it. get your money back, and BAAM; New Steering Wheel, and they will send the old one back to the manufactor before they can sell it. so you just won.

These POS stores like Best Buy doesn't do that. They would just put it back on the shelf and next week, someone here or at the rFactor forum, or the GTR2 or Racer or any other racing forum would be posting about it again.

What a suprise he still hasn't replied. His stock doesn't get checked before it leaves as mines damaged in 2 places and also has a big dint in the side of the wheel. I have contacted ebay about him and i'm also opening up a paypal dispute as well as i mentioned before "givingg the tosser bad feedback"

FIRST. I'm going to take the wheel apart and se if i can fix it myself. Are there any guides on taking it apart as i don't know where to start.

Taking MOMO racing apart: http://web.axelero.hu/mozso/momo_e3.html#

I've spoken to another guy who bought one. His is also faulty!
He has had no response to his emails so we are going to report him.

lately mI have the problem that the throttle of my Momo stays a bit (not 0 input) even when I'm not on it. Did ever anybody have this problem? Is it a software or Hardware thing?
