Change Pedal Assignments on the G29 for the PS4

[Alpha Cipher]

This is closely related to GTS, but I figured to post it here since this is the more relevant sub-forum for it

How do you change the pedal assignments for the G29 in GTS? I want to switch the gas and clutch pedals and set-up my pedal set into a GT-Style arrangement, since my gas pedal's been acting really weird lately. By weird I mean that under full-throttle, the gas would indicate that I'm fluctuating between 50-100% throttle, sometimes getting stuck at 50% for over a second. I can fix this very temporarily by adjusting the pressure I put on the pedal, but it would fluctuate again shortly after even if I don't change my foot pressure. Recently as well when I don't apply any gas at all the game still registers 10-20% throttle. I tried spraying compressed air to clean the internals, but that doesn't work either. I'm sure it's a pedal problem and not GTS because it also happens in PCARS.

I'll eventually try to replace it at the store I bought it from with warranty, but now's not the right time because of the current FiA Championships. I don't mind changing the pedal assignments from the PS4 itself as well, if the option's not available in GTS. Thank you in advance

Try using some ultra duster (canned compressed air) and blowing around where the "pod" is. Sounds like you have some dust build-up.

What's a pod? I did blow compressed air into the pedals, but it might be at the wrong angle or something. Basically I insert the probe into the pedal and pulse the compressed air to get any dust out. Maybe I'm not dusting the "pod" properly?

I did find a on thread on GTP (through Google) and found how to clean spiking pedals on G27 pedals. Don't know how similar they are in terms of infrastructure but may help you.

Thanks! Big help

Here is a picture of the pedals without the cover. Where you want to spray is on the left side you can see below the red part where the wires hook up to the round silver part. Not sure how well you understand electronics, if you do this is like a volume control on a radio. It's bad for dust build-up. You might as well spray all three, as you can see they are all located in the same spot. Hope this helps. If I were you I wouldn't take the pedals apart since you already said you might return for replacement. Just spray the heck out of them first.

Notes taken! Thank you for your help

I think I can put the probe to somewhere around those parts even without taking off the cover. Gonna buy another can of compressed air sometime this week, since I already depleted my old one thanks again

It's called a potentiometer. Three wires are connected. It's a wiper resistor. It' gets crud on it. I've sprayed my old DFGT and G27 pedals with brake cleaner, and carb cleaner numerous times. There's an electric motor spray that's perfect for the application, for like, RC cars, that I would suggest using.
