Project Cars 2 on PS5 disconnecting controller issue

[Matt Black]

Please can anyone help me! I’m trying to play PC2 on a PS5 on a Fanatec GT Pro and keep getting a page saying ‘Controller disconnected, please connect and try again’! I press the X button on my wheel, it goes back to the game at what ever window I have open at that time for a second or 2 and then it goes back to the controller disconnected page again!!! Just keeps going in a circle and nothing I do seems to make it stop! I have a ps5 controller also connected but it doesn’t seem to care!!! lol Would really appreciate it if someone had an answer. I’ve even tried uninstalling and installing again, but does the same thing. Also have tried the base on PS4/PS5 comp mode but still the same. Thanks

Have you tried the 'purple' mode (forget what it is called). That has always worked for me on PC2.

Then there is an oddity of timing of switching controllers on when opening PC2. Best is go to purple, close any games, reboot the PS and then open PC2.

I'll give that a try too when I get back home.
I have the exact same issues on my DD+. No matter what I tried no chance to get the game running.
If your advice should do the trick... Whenever you come to Germany, Cologne.. Just gimme a shout and Beer and Food go on my neck 👍😀

I had the same problem with my Podium DD1, I checked the firmware on the Fanatec site this morning for updates and all was current, except my McLaren wheel needed an update…and that fixed it. Guess the game or the PS4 didn’t recognize the wheel in its previous version🤷🏼‍♂️ Also I need the DD1 to be in PS5/PS4 COMP mode in order to play. Hope that helps!
