@@footdownracing no, you are the best. I got my wheel in May and never was able to update it. I bought a new computer 2 days ago and figured it would work this time and still nothing. I read a million forums and they are saying to download the driver to a different hard drive and all other kinds of nonsense. You are the only one that suggested to remove the rim and it worked instantly!! I'm so happy, you really are the best

@nickgooskos4205 Excellent stuff 😀👌 Delighted to hear I have been able to help you so much! I know the feeling of trawling through endless forums looking for solutions and then coming across the solution finally. It's such a relief, and I know how thankful you are to the person who gave you the solution. That's why I started this youtube channel. I used to find solutions on youtube and used to say that that guy is an absolute legend for taking the time to post this solution. I wanted to be able to help others the same way that others had done. Awesome to hear when a video or solution you have posted has helped somebody out, and it's amazing to get such gratitude afterwards. So, thank you, my friend. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know this video has really helped you. Happy Racing 😎👊

Probably a strange question, but when you're in pc mode does your base show as (fanatec wheel) with a keyboard input?

@footdownracing

Not a strange question at all! Is it showing up like that after you got the blue light fixed or while the flashing blue light is on? Where is it showing up as (fanatec wheel)? In a game or in the Fanatec control panel? I have deleted all the games on my PC bar, EA Sports WRC but my wheel is being registered as a Fanatec CSL DD in the game but the buttons are showing as X Box buttons. I don't know if that is to do with the game or the wheel but I never saw that on any of my other games, like DR2. The wheel still works as it always did though....its a strange one 🤔

That worked on my V2!

Hi man, there are 2 modes. Fanatec and logitec. It should default on the logitech, which should give you ffb. Whenever I changed it to Fanatec mode, I lost all feedback. Maybe yours is defaulting to fanatec mode. Also, make sure you have al the latest firmware updates installed. I can't remember how to change mode, but if you look up how to switch between Fanatec and logic modes on Drive Hub, you should find it. If you can't find it let me know and I'll try and find it for you

Skynet 😅👌 Arnie is going to appear 1 of these days and destroy the world. Getting any sort of a light that isn't normal on any of your equipment can be scary! None of us want to have to replace equipment that just dies all of a sudden. There may be other solutions to fixing this issue but this is what worked for me. 🙂👊

😺✌️

No dice bud... Blue light comes from holding down the power button for "10 seconds" (I've found it to be less) when powering it on... Running into an issue of the CSL wheel hub causing the base to switch between colors...

@footdownracing

Oh right.....I thought it was to do with an out of date firmware or something 🤔 If its a connection to the wheel hub issue, maybe blowing compressed air into the connections might solve it if its continuing to happen for you. Or maybe even a bit of switch cleaner. I had connection issues with a hdmi cable and I sprayed a bit of switch cleaner into the port and let it dry. Didn't have a problem with it after that.

My wheel needed to be pressed in further, then it worked for me
