I can't get the G25 to work with Gran Turismo 4 on PS3

[nyeboy]

The G25 won't work with Gran Turismo 4 for me, weird thing is though it will navigate the menu in options but no where else in the game.

I googeled this but no one seemed to have any trouble getting it to work. Any fixes I saw didn't work, like assigning the controller to the second slot and plugging the G25 into the second USB. I read that V8 Supercars 3 works with the G25 too but I couldn't get that to work either. What can I do to get it to work?

I had this problem with my Dfgt and GT4 on the ps3, I think there may be something on the psn store that resolves it but it should work fine if you play it on your ps2 with the G25(assuming you have one!)

i think wheel has to be in sequential mode so that "dfp emulation" kicks in.

I had the same problem 2 years ago and if I remember correctly, don't touch your controller when powering on your PS3. Let the G25 calibrate and start with using the wheel instead of the controller or unplug the controller and only use the G25.

I hope I remember correctly.

You might need the file finnracer was referring to. It is called "PS2 System Data" and is available at the PS Store.

I've been playing prologue with my G25 for a while now and thought I would go back and give GT4 a shot.

I've tried plugging the G25 in to both USB ports, and it wont auto calibrate like it does in Prologue. I have Accelerator and brake pedal in car but no steering input.

any thoughts?


You might need to turn your controller OFF first then plug your wheel into the first usb port, load game then your wheel should work. The only thing you will need your controller for is to exit the game. The reason your wheel isn't working is that the game is reading your controller. Once you go to the menu and set your wheel up the first time your problem should be solved.Which PS3 do you have my G25 wheel works in either port 1 or 3 I'm on a 60gb upgraded to 500 gb PS3. After I've set my wheel up I set the controller to port 2 so I can use it. I've also been able to use the wheel and controller as player 1 at the same time, but if I was you I'd try without the controller until you get everything working.

If you got to my profile page and search my threads you might find more help for your wheel.

I got it to work, I turned my controller off and plugged the wheel into the first usb port. Loaded the game up and it worked. Thanks for the help everyone.

Yeah...you may have to launch the game using the steering wheel...otherwise, it'll default to the controller. I might be wrong, I just recently bought a ps3...
