Default Thrustmaster Ferrari FF wheel

Hi,

I have a TM Ferrari FF wheel which worked very well until a few days
ago. The simptoms are as such:

1. when steering right the wheel does not return to center. Steering
left works ok.
2. Steering right requires less force than steering left (feels like
the motor does not oppose any force when steering right)
3. At the deadzone there is a strange vibration coming from the motor.
When I pass the DZ the vibration stops. This happens when I start
steering left and the motor puts up the opposing force.
4. When powered off the steering to the right lights the power led to
full intensity easily while steering to the left requires a more
determined move.

If anybody had similar problems I would appreciate some feedback.
Thanks.

All the best,
Ads

I have the TM Enzo FF wheel since a few weeks now. It works fine with
GPL and GTR. Delete the old TM drivers and download the newest TM FF
driver from 09/04 and install it. You can download a FF test file from
TM too.
