Title: CH-Pro pedal (gameport) pots?
Post by: Wilbus on February 26, 2005, 11:20:08 AM
Hey! My old CH-pro gameport pedals aren't working very well anymore, they spike alot and are difficult to calibirate well enough to use.

I guess the pots are worn out (right?) so my question is, where can I order new ones? How many do I need to one set of pedals? Does anyone know if I can order from europe?

Ya, the USB has 3 pots, one for rudder and one for each toe brake.  Cant remember on the analog (even though I am using them lol).  Been awhile since I've seen inside it.  I think its the same though, just wired direct instead of through a circuit board.

Wilbus I was having similar problems with my 7 year old CH Pro pedals. I was able to resolve my issues by cleaning the pot with aerosol contact cleaner.

Thanks all :)

I've tried cleaning them but it didn't help so I guess I'll try and order a new pot.

Thanks again :)
