Wheel Broke
Well it looks like im going to be out of LFS for at least a few months until i can save up enough money to buy another wheel. For some reason now when ever i plug in my momo logitech it doesnt get any FF power and the green lights on the front dont come on unless you hold the power cord into the wheel in a particular position and there is something that i can here moving around in the wheel.

So if anyone knows a place to get Cheap G25 Or DFP ill be greatly appreciated.

hopefully ill be in it by the next patch.

RMA it?


No way of getting cheap G25's or DFP's, or we'd all be doing it!

Doesn't sound too hard to fix, if you can't rma it then I'd open it up and try to fix that loose connection. Might just need a bit of solder.

Glad no one was hurt.

If it's broke - fix it!

Even if I had no soldering talent or knowledge of electrics at all I'd rather fix the damn thing than waiting months to get a new one!
Or I would have been more careful...

Open the wheel (might be a few screws to loosen first) and get rid of the moving thing in it. Then buy yourself a power jack similar to the one on your wheel's psu, cut the power line and fix the new plug with a soldering iron. You might want to put several layers of iso tape, then gaffer tape around the cable to prevent it from breaking again.

Or... if it's the red momo, just send it to me ;-)
Good luck repairing that damn thing!!
