No longer can set max brake force manually
I recently re-installed everything on a fresh PC reset. When I went to calibrate everything, I could no longer set the max brake force, and I only can adjust the BRF slider. I have never had this issue and have no idea what to do differently. It also seems as if everything seems inverted when in iRacing input wise, however no issues there. I need that brake max set because nothing is working properly with it. Please help, thanks.

This is intended. BRF controls the amount of pressure when the pedals are connected to the base directly.
If you want to manually set a max value, you need to use the pedals standalone via USB.
I have the usb plugged in to do so, however I have no option. Could there be a fault in the USB of pedals?
That means you have both the USB cable connected to the PC and the RJ12 cable connected to the Base at the same time...?
I always have with no issues, when I unplug the rj12 it doesn't register the pedals.
OUCH.
You successfully fried the USB port of your pedals by giving it a short due to connecting both USB and RJ12 at the same time. This is mentioned in the Pedal Quick Guide / Manual in big red letters to NEVER EVER connect both at the same time.
ouch is right. I have done this for a year and never had any issues. RIP.
any reason this never had any issues until now? because of a fresh reinstall?
The USB Port likely was dead the whole time since the moment you gave it a short by connecting both USB and RJ12 at the same time initially.
The max button was available for RJ12 connection in very old drivers and was replaced by the (correct and intended) BRF years ago. So likely you just used a very old driver previously where the max button was still available and now you updated to new driver where the Max button was replaced by BRF.
any recommendations in any settings to help me out here? I'm lost without the previous method I've been using
You can only install the driver you used previously where the max button was still available.
Otherwise it is now impossible for you to calibrate the Max again die to the fried USB Port.
the only drivers i can reinstall is 2021, is there a location to older (current) drivers?
