Thrustmaster TS XW Auto Calibration Issues

[M D Gourley]

Hello everyone,

I was hoping that my TS XW would never have any problems...lol...I am having a 'Auto-Calibration' issue on PC start up...it just Turns to the Left, hits the end stopper and stays there, even once my PC has reached the Desktop. It only finishes the Auto-Calibration when I give it some encouragement by moving the wheel to the right by hand...then it proceeds to finish and centering.

I have tried and done...Latest Driver and Firmware../ .Checked that the TSXW in correctly installed on my PC in Device Manager and Game Controllers = OK.../ Reconfigured the Racing Wheels Center Value.../ Uninstalled all other Thrustmaster Shifters and re-installed the TS XW only on my PC....All this and it still Auto-Calibrates sticking to the Left going no further unless I manually move it to the right with my hand.

The TS XW still works fine in the Sims...it's only the 'Auto-Calibration Issue' on PC start up that's the problem as far as I can see...ANY INFO or HELP appreciated...thanks

regards
MD Gourley

Well played thrustmaster. It's over my understanding how they make a defective wheel (T300) with a problem that they carry it to their flagship model as well.
