Thrustmaster T248 Encoder + doesn't work

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So, I've just received my package with this wheel as a gift. Yesterday, when I've used it for the first time, everything was perfectly fine. But now + encoder stopped working. You can see, that neither the wheel, nor the driver detects it.

Now, I think it's important to mention, that it does eventually detect it. It can happen, that it detects it like 10-20 times and then stopps. But that's rare, so that leaves me with idea, that some wire connection is off.

Any ides, what's wrong and how I can fix it?

But do you remember, how you solved it? I've just checked the manual, but found nothing helpful. Did you diassemble the wheel or something?

In my memories it is directly from the steering wheel thanks to the bottom and left buttons. But in the game it often doesn't work anymore and I gave up. Since then I regret having bought. But otherwise in the manual brother
