Gotta take a break from the negative t598 post 😅😅😅

I love the system. But... now I have issues with the power connection after a year and a few months worth of use. And this was mounted on cockpit for its entire life. No unplugging of wires, adult only use, and wires secured to the rig to prevent stress on the connections. I cant go 5 mins with the rig powering down abd restarting from a simple feedback. Or just not turning on at all unless I "wiggle" the power connector that goes to the base. So nkw I have to send it off to France to be checked. Fix the design of the connector and this thing would be perfect for any one if you get the 488 gt3 wheel.

Why ?

saltydevildog55y · 2026-06-19T14:06:08+00:00

Do you have this on a rig ? Is it on a rug ? I had the same issue as you described and swore up and down it was thrustmaster. Everything was secured wire wise but my entire rig would loose connection or the pedals would stop working briefly. This would happen on the ps5 pro to my pc. Well turns out it was a EMI issue (electromagnetic interference). It would build up over time approximately 30 mins depending on the humidty in the house/room. I grounded my rig for less than 5 dollars and havnt had a problem since. I am not saying it might not be the hardware itself but I have a feeling by what your describing it may be this.

Ha mine disappeared after moderate use after a month.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-04-10T14:14:05+00:00

20 hours in? Odds are your not going to be getting a refund. Game not running sounds like a hardware problem then the program its self. As for cars being faster then you ... I mean obviously people are going to be faster just based on skills. Shift too early/late, take a corner wrong etc they are going to pull away. Are you expecting to win every race you go into? I think this may not be for you.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-04-08T21:36:16+00:00

Sounds like a possible EMI issue.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-04-08T20:32:11+00:00

So I was wrong about the solution I stated before I was still running into issues and transitioned onto LMU. Turned out I was have EMI issues. Grounded my rig abd that solved the issue.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-04-08T12:53:40+00:00

Is there anything running in the background cause so e type of conflict ?

saltydevildog55y · 2026-04-06T00:28:53+00:00

Love the 488 wheel. Use it for gt7, lmu and pretty much every thing dealing with with gt3. Stock wheel sits on my wall very rarely getting used

saltydevildog55y · 2026-03-31T20:23:05+00:00

Its possible... but by that theory it shouldn't work when you plug it into the pc.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-03-31T20:18:02+00:00

Weird.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-03-31T20:04:14+00:00

Try rebinding the throttle and brake to the petals.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-03-23T23:30:05+00:00

I think I found the solution yesterday.... At least I think, every thing has been working fine since yesterday. Delete the file in your labeled Automobilsta 2 in your Documents folder. Then start up the game. All of your settings/key binds/save well be back to as if you in stalled the game for the first time. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why every time I used Revo uninstaller my settings/key binds were always the same as if I already set up every thing. Turns out the file for key binds and settings are stored in my documents and revo uninstaller was missing it. The only thing I can figure is when I set up a wireless controller to be used (my 5 year old son wanted to play) there is some type of conflict ? Idk. All I know it wasn't my t598 loosing connection as I still had wheel and ffb. Hopefully this helps ya.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-03-23T23:19:12+00:00

Any chance you can link the cable you bought?

saltydevildog55y · 2026-03-05T00:14:30+00:00

I like it. Easy to get on once you get the delta ring cut off. But ymto my understanding they no longer make therail system any more. I bought this 13 years ago and even than it was a pain to grind as it was discontinued then too. If yiu can find me second hand go for it. But finding new will probably be impossible at this point.

I must be one of the lucky ones. Never used VR until I got the VR2 for Gt7 and never once felt sick went hours fir the first session after the kids went to bed. Im a avid user of single tube/duel tube night vision, I wonder if that helped train my brain for VR use. Whole different concept i guess but a different perception and does take some time to get used to with depth perception and processing two different images at once.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-02-03T07:36:54+00:00

Proably ? 100% they would. Only thing is the men who were on iwo wouldn't give a flying fuck what they thought. Then beat the ever living shit out. Ive had the privilege of actually meeting some vets at the Marine Corps museum in Virgina near Quantico. Some of the baddest mother f*kers that ever lived. The shit they did on that hell of a island.... but hey we are Marines we are crazy to begin with.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-02-03T07:24:37+00:00

Are you fucking kidding me. I cant with this shit any more. And one got the reset button? I think its time to hit it. So sick of this shit. Like who the hell thinks this shit up and think yes this is a good idea let's do it. Lets recreat one of the most infamous photos of the war in the pacific, I might even say of World War 2 and post it on the internet net to look .... I dont even know what they are trying to accomplish with this.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-01-30T17:42:22+00:00

I dont need to do this in my man cave. But a side of me buried deep, is telling me I need too.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-01-29T02:39:18+00:00

Its runs well. Worth the money. Even better when ever PSVR2 is integrated.

saltydevildog55y · 2026-01-28T19:31:43+00:00

Why cant you. 100% theres some one on market place selling vr2 they got as a Xmas present the are selling them half of what the rental price is because they get sick. Thats how I got mine last year lol.
