FAQs

Is this a complete racing wheel or an add-on?

This is an add-on wheel rim module. It requires a compatible Thrustmaster racing wheel base to function.

What games is this compatible with?

It is compatible with PC (Windows 10, 11), PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. Its customization is particularly suited for racing simulation titles, including Forza Horizon 5 due to its official theming.

How do I assign inputs to the rear buttons?

The four rear buttons automatically assign inputs when the wheel module is inserted. The recommended setup is for them to replace the D-pad functions.

Can I change the button assignments?

Yes, you can configure and customize button assignments, sensitivity, and dead zones using the free ThrustmapperX software available for PC and Xbox.

What is T-MOD technology?

T-MOD technology allows you to easily and quickly swap or reposition the wheel module without tools, enhancing comfort and offering near-limitless replacement possibilities.

Does it work with older PlayStation or Xbox consoles?

It is compatible with PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, in addition to the latest generation consoles.

How should I clean the wheel rim?

Clean the wheel surface with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher grime, use a slightly damp cloth with water only, and ensure it is completely dry before use. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Wheel not recognized by PC/Console

Ensure the wheel base is properly connected to the console/PC and powered on. Try a different USB port. Reinstall the latest drivers and firmware from the Thrustmaster website.

Buttons or encoders not functioning

Check if the wheel module is securely attached to the base. Use the ThrustmapperX software to verify button assignments and test functionality. Ensure the firmware is up to date.

Inconsistent steering feedback or centering issues

Verify that the wheel module is correctly seated on the base. Check the steering linearity and dead zone settings in ThrustmapperX or in-game settings. Ensure there are no obstructions around the wheel base's rotation mechanism.

Software (ThrustmapperX) not launching or detecting the wheel

Run the software as an administrator. Ensure your operating system and wheel drivers are up to date. Temporarily disable antivirus software that might be blocking the application.
