I am having the strangest problem.

When I attach this adapter to my DD wheel, Fanaleds and Joytokey will not work. If I take it off the rig, everything works as it is supposed to. When I reattach it very loosely, everything works. When I tighten it down, the same error occurs.

errors:

1. Fanaleds

With the adapter attached to the rig, the software indicates a clubsport wheel is attached with no rim. When I place either my F1 or my BMW wheel, Fanaleds still shows no rim attached.

When I take the adapter off the rig, everything works perfectly.

2. JoytoKey

When the adapter is off the rig. I can attach either wheel and everything works as it should. When the adapter is attached to the rig, my joystick 1 (which is my wheel) shows several of the buttons highlighted in yellow. None of the buttons work.

Any help in troubleshooting would be appreciated.
 
Sounds like you have an EMI issue from the base to the adapter, perhaps some plastic/rubber washers in between so it isn't flush would help?
