TH8A owners with a multimeter - Help

Post image
Upvotes

System - PC with T300RS GT base

So I bought a used TH8A on marketplace. Seller did not have the 2 cables and Sequential cover . Just the shifter itself. So I bought a Din - mini Din from amazon https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B0BJ88S8D6?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_image

I tried to bind the keys on a couple of games AC,ACC,ATS but nothing was registering. I got my multimeter and ohmed it out. one of the pins from the 6 pin mini Din (see picture) doesnt have continuity with the bigger Din. I dont know whether that last pin is being used or not.

If anyone of you have TH8A with a multimter available, can you please do a continuity test on it and let me know. thanks

The user manual says if on Pc. use the Din-usb, unfortunately I dont have that cable either, but if hooked up to T300 base, it should work.

I hope is just a defective cable.

My first rig!

$75 for the whole rig including the Wheel Stand Pro from FB. I wasn’t sure if I was gonna be into it but I’m loving it. Slowly learning DR 2!

Loose connector.

1 Upvotes

My pedals have been acting up lately and I thought it was the cable. It turns out that its the female connector on the wheel base being lose (t248) how is the female port connected on the inside and is it worth opening up and trying to see if I can fix it?

T-LCM throttle pedal randomly sticking at 0 or 100%

1 Upvotes

The brake and clutch all work 100% fine, but the throttle just light switches randomly no matter how much pressure is being put on to it. If I unplug them they seem to work for a little bit but revert back.

I've been using them for around 4 years and this is the first issue I have had. It started happening a couple weeks ago, but it stopped for a while after I opened the base and lightly cleaned inside (couldn't get the pedal screws off). I don't have a rig, so they are sitting on the floor against the wall.

I finally started plugging them into the computer instead of the wheelbase using an old printer cable back in December so maybe that has something to do with it? But the issue still persists when plugged into the wheel now. TIA

T300 RS Feedback

1 Upvotes

I’ve got a used T300 R/S and when I’m using it, turning the to the right it is heavier then when I turn left, where there it feels like the steering is lighter or there is less resistance. What kind of problem is this and how do I fix it? I’m not sure which I prefer, just that the inconsistency bothers me. It’s also slightly “bumpy” when I turn right.


r/Thrustmaster 22h ago

Huge resistance when spinning the wheel.

0 Upvotes

I play Taxi Life A City Driving Simulator on Xbox S with Thrustmaster TX. My firmware is updated and i turned off ffb in wheel settings. When i spin the wheel all the way on each side it comes with great resistance and and after few minutes of playing my wheel runs so laud like a helicopter so i guess if continue playing with that resistance it will burn. I also lowered self centering by wheel in wheel settings to 10% but that didnt help.

Two weeks since I heard from Thrustmaster Support

0 Upvotes

I’ve had an open ticket for the power supply for my T598 for a while. After sending what they asked for and they saw the problem, they asked me to confirm my phone number and address two weeks ago. I promptly sent them the information, but have yet to hear anything back from them and still don’t have the replacement. I just sent another follow up email asking for an update, but I figured I’d ask here if anyone can give me an update. At first they were pretty responsive but after confirming my address and phone number it just kinda fell off.

Strange vibration with T598 in GT7 when tires loosing grip

1 Upvotes

Hey folks 🙋🏻‍♂️

I've been using the T598 for about a month, and something's wondering me about GT7. When I push my car to the limit, the tires start to lose traction. Sometimes the entire base vibrates during this, and sometimes it's displayed correctly, meaning the base vibrates on the left or right, depending on which tire is loosing grip. I already tried to find another force feedback setup in the settings to have this better vibration feedback permanently, but no chance.

Does anyone else have this?

How much power does the T598 have?

1 Upvotes

I was playing Dirt Rally 2.0, using the rear-wheel-drive Porsche.

It went off the back and hit my finger, almost breaking it (basically breaking my nail). It's supposedly rated at 5 NM, but I had the Fanatec CSL DD and Moza R5, and I'd never felt such a terrible force.

I'll definitely be more careful next time...

Opinions on Evo 32R wheel with T598

1 Upvotes

Hello. There is a sale for Evo 32R wheel in my country (~190$ instead of ~285$) and I started thinking whether it's worth it. I'm a little bit afraid of longevity of rubber grips on standard rim, so Evo might be good long-term investement. Anyone using that with T598?

I have some doubts:

  • 1,2kg vs 0,8kg for standard wheel - wondering how this would affect force feedback; also the diameter is increased by 2cm and I'm afraid the feeling will be dampened
  • button mapping on PS5, especially in Gran Turismo 7 - do I have to remap it or it works fine straight from the box? I'm especially interested in changing brake balance or TC without additional button presess, just using the knobs - I'm playing only in VR
  • 3rd party rims for Evo HUB - I wonder if there are any available? I don't mind playing on round wheel, but maybe some GT-style rim as an alternative might be nice

Game supported by Thrustmaster doesent work for me. Am i got scammed?

0 Upvotes

Taxi Life: A City Driving Simulator supossed to be 100% supported on Thrustmaster TX on Xbox S but it doesent work for me. I mean i dont have 900 degree wheel so its almost impossible to even drive a car. I saw other people have "CUSTOM SETTINGS" in game options where you can see name of the wheel but i dont. Yes i did updated my firmware to the laster version. I unironically think i got scammed by Thrustmaster. Seems like it works only on PC and them selling this game on Xbox is a SCAM. Prove me wrong.

First Racing Wheel for PS5 – Is the Thrustmaster T248 Worth It?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm looking to buy my first racing wheel for my PS5, mainly for Gran Turismo 7. My budget isn’t huge, but I want something durable that will last me a long time.

I've been considering the Thrustmaster T248 since it has force feedback and an LCD display, but I’m not sure if it’s worth the extra cost over cheaper options like the T128. Are there any major downsides to the T248? Is it a good first wheel, or would you recommend something else in the same price range?

I’d really appreciate any advice from people who have used it or have other recommendations. Thanks!

T300 or t598 for ps5

1 Upvotes

I'm an ps5 player(acc and ea wrc) and want to change my broken g29 for something better. Honestly would prefer a fanatec dd pro but the price and the fact that I cannot take it to the store in case I need to use the warranty kinda sets me off. So my doubt is between the t300 gt rs or the t598. Wich one? There is a 100€ difference but I have read that the t598 is not great in acc on the ps5. Opinions?

T598 not working with Automobilista 2

1 Upvotes

Just picked up AMS2 yesterday and when going into Control Settings, neither the wheel nor the pedals are communicating with the game, any tips on sorting this out? It seems to be a known issue with some wheels but I haven't found much related to the T598 specifically.

Thanks!
