I just got my new G27 wheel this morning and I got the pedals and shifter to work without trouble but the wheel is completely unresponsive! I accelerate and brake but the wheel seems like it isn't connected. The only thing on the wheel that does work is the paddle shifters. All the buttons on the shifter panel work fine but again, the wheel just doesn't work. This is weird because all the other attachments are connected to the PS3 through the wheel. It's not just GT5p either. I tried Dirt 2 and it didn't work either. Help me please!

Try from another main power source. Unplug everything and plug it all in again, make sure it's all in there properly. I had the same problem with my G25 because I didn't have it connected properly. Once you plugged everything back in switch the PS back on. It should work 👍
 
You know you have to plug it into the wall, right? :dunce: Those are the exact symptoms mine has when it is connected to the PS3 but not an electrical outlet.
 
Ok I figured it out. The outlet I had plugged it into had a short circuit and I had to reset the outlet. :dunce: Sorry for the stupid question haha.
 
I'm actually having a problem with the paddle shifts not shifting gears, I know they work beause they do navigate up and down through the options menu. I know I can probably change the button assignments problem the G27 isnt listed in the racing wheels sections. Also the clutch pedal doesn't seem to do anything.
 
@ the Thread's author: :lol: i too had a power issue the first time i played with a G27, forgot to plug it to the wall :P


@ M5_dude: Are you talking about playing GT5-Prologue with the G27?
if so:

1) the G27 paddles are not supported by GT5-P. :indiff:
2) the G27 clutch pedal seems to be NOT supported by GT5-P either... last time i tried the G27 at a friends house with GT5-P, i could still change gears WITHOUT :dunce: depressing on the clutch!! is that true you guys?
 
Yes, I am. Thank you, I'll have to find a used copy of DiRT 2 to test out these fuctions. While I got the G27 mainly for the gated 6 speed with clutch I still need to use the paddles occassionally
