Thread may get moved since the part of the product I think is "broken" I don't use in AH, but....
I have a Logitech Driving Force Pro (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/441/273&hub=1&cl=us,en) and was curious if anyone knows what would happen if FFB broke? I ask since the wheel use to "shake" when driving off-road in a game or over an old wooden bridge (heck it use to even react to AH), but recently it doesn't "shake", instead it acts like its constantly Locked. By Locked I mean it takes force to turn (which I prefer compared to it's looseness when it's un-powered), but it never adjusts it's tension (flying off a road use to make it go loose to simulate no grip on the road).
So would a broken FFB cause it to stay in a Locked/Force mode or is there something else wrong with it? I use the wheel almost daily anymore and I use the pedals for rudder in AH so I would very much hate for it to break (that and it cost over 140$ 2-3 years ago).
Thanks for any help, FFB is an unknown/unexplored area to me. :salute

Did you somehow turn off the FFB setting in your game?
I've got a MS Sidewinder FFB wheel and mine is just as you describe. I set the "tension" settings in the profiler to get it to feel how I want then enable FFB in-game if I want to use it, otherwise it just runs with my pre-set tension settings.

Well I feel stupid now :rolleyes:, Thanks for the idea Bald...wasn't the game it was disabled in, it was the dang Logitech Game Profile. Not sure how it got disabled, but it did (some days I think this computer hates me). Re-enabled it and it works now.
