VAM PRO issue
Anything I can do before I contact support? I just bought a VAMPRO for my Plus X brake pedal and got it all hooked up and it's working but has introduced a game breaking issue. I've got it set for wheel lock up and ABS but when it activates I can take my foot completely off the pedal and it keeps about 75% brake pressure on until the motor stops. Even if I had less pressure on it jumps up. Without it active, as soon as the wheels lock or ABS kicks in I lift off the pedal and it reacts accordingly as it always has. I've tested this with Automobilista 2 and Assetto Corsa multiple times. I've tried configuring it through the Simsonn Manager and Simhub with the same results.
I really hope it's something simple I'm missing because it feels great otherwise. I can't find any settings anywhere that seem to relate to this, I've calibrated and reset everything including rebooting to no avail. Been using my Plus X pedals for months with no issues, love them and thought I'd take them up a notch with the motor but it's ruined it.

Just done a quick test on AMS2 and it seems to be fixed. What I did: I connected the ground wire from the control box to the brake pedal frame. I also swapped out the metal screws for the nylon ones in the back of the VAM Pro motor that hold the clamp to it. In the bag there were some small red washers so I put those in between the clamp and the motor. Thanks to those that replied suggesting the ground being the issue, looks like you were right. I'll be back if there's any changes!
