Broken brake pedal

masterandshadows · Jan 27, 2023

So basically, when I use my Hori steering wheel (made for ps4, ps3 and pc) on my pc, it just makes my car go backwards when I'm not even touching anything, it's quite unpredictable.

I never noticed it doing anything weird on other apps than games

Temporary Fixes I found:

Just change the steering wheel mode (from ps4-s to ps3 for exemple or dp to ls(I don't know what the other part of the modes do))

Unplug and replug

These two are only temporary fixes, so the bug can still happen after that.

Cheers mark.Read about the brake thing before but I was going to assign the clutch pedal as the brake as I left foot brake anyway.

Trippul, I just hooked up my GT2 wheel and club sport pedals. would appreciate knowing what setup(settings you use for xbox forza 4). I am also experiencing problems with my brakes. Dont know if it is just a matter of getting used to them or bad setting
or adjustment but I just cant get any feel for them. I brake for a corner and its like nothing happens. Got to use way more brake pedal to slow and do not get a lot of response even them. With my microsoft brakes all i needed was my toe and just barely touch
the brakes and with some car setups i would have to be careful not to lockup the brakes. I want that feel with my clubsport pedals. Too much pedall travel cause loss of hundreds of sec. on lap times each time I use brakes. I am about a sec. and a half off
my best rtimes now. Yuor input would be appreciated.

Well, to be honest, because of the nature of the CSPs and the components that it uses, it's natural for there to be a slight dead zone before the brakes "bite"...I don't think you're going to be able to tune the brake pedal to be as hyper-sensitive as it
sounds like your old MS pedals were. But a real car is not going to brake hard if you just touch the brakes with your toe, so it's probably best that you don't set it up to behave that way in the game either.

.

That being said, have a look at
this help page on Fanatec's site, and watch the video...by downloading the driver for your PC, you can hook up your pedals and use the dial next to the brake pedal to adjust the maximum braking force required to register 100%.

.

In-game I like to keep the ABS setting on the wheel around 85% or so (most of my in-game tunes use between 90-100% brake pressure), that way the pedals will start to vibrate and I'll know to back off the brakes a bit otherwise they'll lock up...it's a nice
little "early warning system".

I imagine that you are the type of person who has a car crash and then blames the car manufacturer because they put the accelerator pedal next to the brake pedal
