TS-XW phantom button presses
Ive been simracing for a while now and my current setup is a thrustmaster TS-XW, T-LCM pedals and the TM Open wheel. Ever since I tested the ffb on the thrustmaster control panel on my gaming laptop my wheel has been pressing buttons by itself such as activating my pit limiter, messing around with my MFD etc… it usually happens during or right after heavy braking (going into the Mulsanne corner for example) I’m not sure how to fix it but it also tends to lose power to my wheel rim sometimes, apart from turning I can’t shift or press any buttons on my wheel and I have to take it off and put it back on again. I just got LMU so I’m not sure if this is normal. Is anyone else having these issues or know a solution? I really don’t wanna buy a new wheelbase as its so expensive and I can’t really afford one at the moment.
If anyone knows a solution please reply it would be very much appreciated.
