Logitech Pedal Problem G29

[A_Higher_Place]

Hi everyone,

Below you'll see a video of what I'm up against. I'm looking for some next step advice. I took apart the pedal casing and sprayed some WD40 contact cleaner around the potmetres but have still have my pedals do this "fizzling". I did not have this issues with the brake pedal before cleaning them, but now I do. The gas pedal still fizzles but not as much. What would you recommend? Thank you for your help

Blast it with compressed air? It may have some moisture in there still.

I have not had need for this yet, but I've read good things about it. Axc-Sim does a potentiometer upgrade if you want to go that route..

Potentiometer Upgrade Kit for Logitech G Series Pedals (v1.1) - G25/G27/G29/G920/G923

This kit replaces the standard Logitech pedal potentiometer with a high quality linear position sensor.

That looks like a wiring/connection problem. I’ve had the same issue with my g29 but I don’t think it made it spike up that high. When cleaning the pots make sure to spray inside of them. If that doesn’t help then I would try to test the continuity of the wire from the pedals to the wheel base. Good luck🍻

Didn’t know WD40 made contact cleaner. I have a can of this stuff I bought years ago. Been extremely happy with it. I recently had a set of G29 actually G27 pedals apart to where I could see the pots, so back plate off. I used this stuff and sprayed it into the pots and worked the pedals.

A friend is now using that G29 with G27 pedals. Seems to be working for him. I thought that wheel was toast and ended up buying a G923. When I had more time I took it all apart and even managed to fix the faulty upshift paddle with this stuff too. It wasn’t even clicking anymore and wasn’t shifting 40% of the time but after this stuff click click click, shifter works!

Crappy part its expensive but it lasts a long time, I’ve had my can for like ten years I bet.
