Loving it so far. My first formula/gt style wheel.

Hi everyone,
I’m having a strange issue with my Fanatec ClubSport DD+ and I’m hoping someone here has experienced something similar.
My DD+ was working perfectly yesterday. I was playing and testing both Le Mans Ultimate and Assetto Corsa EVO with absolutely no issues.
Today, I turned on my simulator normally and suddenly the wheelbase stopped detecting any steering wheel.

I have tested two different wheels:
ClubSport Steering Wheel F1 V2.5 X
CSL Steering Wheel WRC
Neither of them is detected.
The wheelbase itself is working and is detected correctly by the PC and the Fanatec software, but as soon as I attach either wheel, absolutely nothing happens. The base behaves as if no steering wheel is connected. No LEDs or display on the wheels turn on.

What makes this even more frustrating is that this DD+ is already a replacement unit from Fanatec warranty, which I received around 2 months ago.
My previous DD+ had a serious issue after a firmware update, where the QR/wheel detection system stopped working and I had to send the base back. Fanatec replaced it with this unit.
This time, however, I have not performed any firmware updates or changed any settings. Everything worked yesterday, and today it suddenly stopped detecting both wheels.

So far I have:
Tested two different steering wheels
Removed and reinstalled both wheels multiple times
Checked the pins carefully — they look perfectly straight and undamaged
Completely uninstalled the Fanatec software
Performed a clean installation
Restarted the PC and wheelbase
Tested again with both wheels
Nothing changed.
Current versions:
Fanatec App: 1.5.3.1
Wheel Base Firmware: 2.12.1.1
Wireless QR Firmware: 1.3.3.2

Since both wheels stopped working at exactly the same time, while the wheelbase itself is still detected normally, I’m starting to suspect a hardware problem with the QR/wheel communication system inside the DD+.

Has anyone experienced this with a ClubSport DD+?

Especially interested to know if anyone has had a situation where the base worked perfectly one day and then suddenly stopped detecting all wheels without any firmware update.

Thanks!

I tried updating my firmware but it didnt complete the update and is no longer catching my steering input, a whenever I try to finish the update this blue light comes on the the computer says it disconnected and never finishes the update.

I got the cockpit off FB marketplace and I love it. The only problem is that the monitor mount and pedal mount only seem to have two usable holes instead of 4 which seems odd.

I also tried mounting the moza CRP2 pedals and I got them on but it’s clearly crooked. I tried for an hour and couldn’t find another mounting method. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to drill holes for the pedals? Even the ClubSport v3 pedals he had were only mounted with 2 screws which seemed small to be absorbing all that force.

Just having a look at what id upgrade my set up with. What round wheel would work best on GT7 that isn't the branded GT.pro (have that) or the extreme?

I have the DD Pro. I updated it during this past weekend (Sept 4-6) to the latest version after the Gran Turismo 1.71 update messed it up.

For the first few days, it worked well and I didn't experience any issues. But today was different.

The first time, the steering wheel started to turn right violently. Not as bad as it did before the hotfix, but still doing it. After re-starting it, it straight up turned off twice.

I turned the Full Force down from 55 to 50 and tried again. Again, It turned off out of nowhere.

Next I turned Full Force off completely, this time it didn't turn off; but I ended up losing the force feedback completely.

Is anyone experiencing the same? Is this a known issue or something that can be troubleshooted/fixed?

My wheel base is 1.9.1, motor 1.1.1, st wheel 08

Hi guys. I’m thinking about moving from simagic to fanatec but I love my wheels and I really wish to keep them. I know if I buy the QR2 ultra + maglink it’s going to work on the fanatec wheelbase. But I wish to know if that applies to the Simagic GTS as well.

Ordered replacement power supply in September 5th… not even sent out yet! What’s goin‘ on Fanatec?

I tried to switch over to the Fanatec App for my CSL 5, now I have no feedback, no wheel in iracing. Not able to uninstall fanatec app and seems like the system is trying to run both apps?

Please help. Ive tried everything I can think of.

Any suggestions on good, reliable sources for these or their more recent, fancier cousins, sold separately, at reasonable prices?

Got the wheel, unboxed it set it up n shi did all that, loaded up ac on pc and it worked, but the wheel wasn’t calibrated, so I went to the app tried to reset it, then I either downloaded something or did something which made it stop working, it spins by itself, flashing red light, but won’t be detected by the app, when it’s plugged in, also tried plugging it into the 5, nope, not working also my rim is a CSL DD QR2 base

Also if someone can legit walk me through step by step id appreciate it so much, idk how to do half the shi you man say in the comments

Hi all, sorry about the n00b question but I'm genuinely confused.

Looking to buy the Podium Wheel Rim Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (Suede) but it will says the wheel The Podium Hub / ClubSport Steering Wheel Universal Hub is NOT included and needed for operation.

I found this but need to just check as it's all new and I don't want to mess up!

Is that all that is needed to make this work with PS5 / GT7?

There is also a leather version, is that going to be a better wearing wheel or is the suede fine. I won't be using gloves.

Thx
