Just
to make sure, I didn't do these mods because I wanted to take the
wheel apart at all costs. I've done them, because I was afraid of
that the replacement wheel would develop the same problems after
a time. Which might not be true, as I've never tried that! Another
important thing is, that many customers never experienced such problems
with their Logitech MOMO Racing wheel, which is normal as I was
always an unlucky guy in every area of human life. ;-)
Straight out of the box I got:
a bit loose wheel,
so I could move the wheel shaft left-right
2-3mm, without turning it
knocking sound when,
wheel centered and then
moved left and
right a bit
I had these "problems" with my old
Formula Force GP wheel too (same internal structure), so I've decided
to ignore them. But during a weekend league race my left shifter
paddle broke and I had to decide: skip next league race or fix it
myself. As I like microelectronics and mechanics (studied both deeply
on university) I choosed to open the wheel. This is how all started...
Currently the following modifications have been
done to my wheel:
Fix
to prevent multiple paddle shifts and no shifts
Wheel
shaft fix (no more slack)
Fix
for knocking sound
Accelerator
pedal fix (no more spikes)
Off-centering
issue (sw releated)
