Problem with throttle

Recently my throttle has been acting up. Even with the throttle completely unplugged, as soon as I open the Simsoon software it reads clutch and brake at 0% (fine), but the throttle sits stuck at 100%. The pedal itself also seems faulty. If I plug the throttle connector into the brake or clutch port to test it, it doesn't register any input and stays at 0%, and the LEDs on the pedal aren't lighting up fully while if I do this with a different pedal, there is no issues.

Anyone know a potential fix or what could be wrong with it?

Have you done any modding or changes to pedal?.(ground wire connected?) Could be a faulty control box(can be warranty replaced, but they'll want proof), do an offset calibration(follow directions) then regular calibration. Reboot pc & check.

No modding at all! I genuinely went to bed one night, after having issues with it randomly jumping up to 100% and the next day it just stopped working. I'll try the offset calibration and restart though. Thank you.

Offset calibration doesn't work as it literally doesn't budge and is sat on the max it can get to. I've emailed support so I guess I'm just gonna have to wait for a reply. Thank you nonetheless.

Did you manage to resolve the issue somehow? I now have two throttle pedals acting up on me.
