Numskull wheel won’t work

Hello Asif, sorry to hear you're having trouble.

Xbox now uses a 'Designed for Xbox' platform which means that unofficial 3rd party devices may not work. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-onli...

My suggestion here would be to contact the manufacturer support team and double check that it is compatible with the Xbox console.

no matter what it claims you cannot use any unauthorized peripheral with Xbox. If you don't see the design for Xbox logo and the Xbox jewel or if it relies on a controller to tether, it's not going to be authorized.

It is also extremely unlikely you would find any authorized wheel or any wheel worth using for 40 bucks

If you ask me right now I didn't see someone else with the same issue.

If you want, I can advise you one more thing before to suspect an issue with the console itself (and while you test it with a different console)

Perform an offline update for your console. In that way Xbox system will be installed from scratch.
For this you need a USB and PC to format it and transfer files provided in the link below (with detailed steps and requirements):

**If maybe you're using an insider build / beta OS in your console you may need to leave the program first.
If you're not sure about that follow these instructions:
"Launch the Xbox Insider Hub on your Xbox or a Windows device.
On the main landing page, select Settings.
Select Manage devices and choose the one you want to remove from the program.
Select Done."

I was double checking their webpage and it seems that they don't offer proprietary drivers / firmware updates

Are you not able to test a different wheel? (I mean, one from a different brand)

Or the same wheel on a different console and not PC

Exists the possibility that is just this model the one that's not working anymore due to an Xbox system update

Hi Josef.

I can't find any info about firmware in the manual or online....I wouldn't have a clue how to do that.

Does the xbox need drivers for things like this,.....could there be a problem with this?

We have a keyboard and mouse and they work perfectly fine in the xbox.

It's very strange. We have ended up with 2 wheels that seem to be perfectly fine and yet both will not work with the console. One worked well for over 1 year.

Thanks.
