CSL P1 V2 Revstripe working in Fanatec Control Panel, but not in any games.

I originally had some trouble with the small LED screen and RevStripe as a whole, but after enough digging, I found solutions to my LED problem. However, the revstripe has been a tricky one. I've installed the newest drivers, and have everything up-to-date on my firmware.
However even when the RevStripe is enabled in Fanatec Control Panel, and in games' settings, it doesn't work. I've tried games like Assetto Corsa, BeamNG.drive, DiRT Rally 2.0, Forza Horizon 5, and none of these games have the RevStripe working, despite it working when I hit the RevStripe test on the Control Panel...
If anybody has a fix for this, it would be greatly appreciated, as I'd like to use ALL of the wheel's features, as I paid for the whole wheel. Thanks.

Try yellow CSW V2.5 compatibility mode.
If on PC, then you would usually use Fanatec's Fanalab app and associated car profiles for proper RPM LED management with Assetto Corsa and some other games, however if their built in support for LED strip isn't working that is strange and as above try CSW v2.5 comp mode.
Some older games you would use the Fanaled program from a third party provider.
okay, thank you. I will try to download Fanaleds and try the CSW compatibility mode. I'll get back on here afterwards! Thanks again.
Okay, so I’ve tried the compatibility mode and also fans less in multiple games and configured cars, however it still doesn’t work. Still getting it working in control panel, but not games itself. I need more ideas!
Have you tried setting STEAM for each game in properties of game to "Disable Steam Input". (Unlikely to make difference though)
I haven’t tried that, but somebody in another discussion said something about checking the pins. I’ve just had a look at mine and one of them is slightly shorter than all of the others. Is this normal, or is there something wrong that I need to contact fanatec about? This could be it possibly, explaining why FanaLEDs made the revstripe work uncontrollably and they just flickered violently and randomly…
One short pin is normal for all fanatec wheels.
Should post most current archived Fanatec.logs file here and also describe the gear that you use, CSL DD, DD1, DD2, pedals, shifters, Steering wheels, etc.
Just to be sure, you need to be more specific, which game and led management you may be using with it.
Ie.
Assetto Corsa or Assetto Corsa Competizione, Dirt Rally 1 and 2, Grid 2019 and others shown in Fanalab Main Menu + Fanalab 2.01.58 (Enable Telemetry and Enable Fanalab Game LED/Hardware support buttons both have to be green so Fanalab has control of LEDs from the telemetry data) + Custom car Profiles xxxxxxxxx.pws with each RPM=LED ranges specified for each car.
Codemaster Games Dirt2, Dirt3, Dirt4, Grid, Grid2, Grid Autosport, BeamNG.drive and other Fanaled supported titles + Fanaled 2.6.x + Custom Car profiles with RPM=LED levels (You can also add these games to FANALAB instead of FANALED, but it doesn't support telemetry driven RPM=LED levels control).
For Assetto Corsa and dirt rally 2.0 , I have already clicked the enabled telemetry and LED buttons, that only fixed the telemetry mini screen. I've also tried making custom profiles for a few cars and none of them worked. I'm not sure where to go from here, might just have to ask Fanatec directly and see what's going on.
The exact gear that I am using includes:
CSL DD
P1 v2 Steering Wheel
CSL Pedals
CSL Pedal Clutch Kit
Your the second person having the issue on forum that I know of, so it might be a bug in the drivers or FW combination with that wheel.
Yeah, I would contact Fanatec support.
Okay, will do. Thanks for all the help and support though MD. I'll keep the forum open just in case anybody else has had the issue and has fixed it, or somebody finds a solution. Cheers buddy.
