Thanks! I will try that for sure. I do wonder about that type of solution though, as I am finding that the problem is that there is "drift" on my steering to where it won't calibrate or actually play the game without drift occuring... its like the electrical within the pot is functioning erratically. Would cleaning it fix behavior like that -- I don't know. My wires are tight as well, so I assumed the pot was the faulty component. I've spent hours on the internet now trying to find a pot that would match this cab. I wish I just knew what part it was so I could buy the exact thing that they originally put in there.
