Guys my CSL DD 8nm suddenly lost power now it looks like a 5nm, has anyone had the same problem?

Did you perhaps inadvertently change FFS from Peak to Linear?
I checked it is set to peak and non-linear, my CSL DD has lost about 30% of its strength, on rfactor2 first I had to put a force of max 70% now I have to put 100% to feel some sensation, if I put 70% it doesn't you hear absolutely nothing
Perhaps it's an issue with the power supply. When you open the Control Panel, does it show the "Boost Kit 180" branding?
Yes, yes, it is detected perfectly, yesterday I had the opportunity to try a friend's CSL DD, I set the same settings on both rfactor2 and fanalab, (100%) fanalab and 85% on FFB inside rf2 and it was really hard to run the steering wheel, with my 100% really much weaker, I really don't understand.
I don't know, sounds to me like you have a hardware issue. I would try opening a support ticket.
1. Are you sure that Fanalab transmits the settings to the base? Check by pressing the Setup key.
2. RF2 uses the same window to set 2 different game FFB forces. When you are in the main menu, it sets the global strength of the game, while when you are in the pits of a session, it sets the FFB of the single car. It is possible that you have a low global setting, such as 50%, and an 85% car setting. In this case you would have 85% of 50%, which is about 42% of the strength. This is also worth checking out.
3. Try another game before opening a support ticket.
All very good points you raise. I might also recommend running the game without Fanalab to eliminate that as a possible variable.
I did all these tests and no results, tried different simulators and with each simulator my CSL DD lost 50% strength, I contacted the fanatec support service and they were very quick to get me to perform several checks, all to no avail , I also provided them with a video where I show that I drive safely with one hand at 100% ffb both from the fanatec control panel and 100% ffb of the simulator. They created a return label for me to send it for assistance, now my flying base is already on its way to Germany
Same problem here. Used to run ACC at 50-60% FFB. Now I run it at 100% and still doesn’t feel it’s enough.
