CSL DD, wheel not returning to centre?
My CSL DD wheel base is connected to a PC, Win10. I have updated the firmware to 1.0.2.4, and the motor firmware is 1.0.1.3, (up to date) Also, I have made a manual steering wheel center position calibration.
My problem is: When testing the base WITHOUT A WHEEL, i can feel that the motor is working, with correct resistance, but when turning the shaft, it does not return to center position.
I have checked all the options in the wheel base settings tab , nothing really stating this function(?)
So: my newbie question is:
-Do I need to connect a steering wheel for the shaft to start returning to center position? (Nah?)
-Do I need to run a (driving game) software in order to activate "centering functionality?" (Nah?)
(Or can it be something that may be wrong with my settings? (Probably not?)
Any information on this would be helpful! Thanks!

It is the correct behavior that the wheel does not return to center when you are testing on the desktop or in the driver.
Also in a game it won't return to center when no wheel is attached because without a Wheel attached the whole FFB is completely disabled.
Ah, great! Thank you for this information, my old Logitech G27 always did this from scratch :-)
Hmmm, this means that you will not be able to add any 3rd party wheel, (let´s say for oldtimer racing games?!) Are you saying that a Fanatec steering wheel is needed to run FFB in games?
Yes, as for EVERY Fanatec Base you need at least a CSL Universal Hub, ClubSport Universal Hub or Podium Hub to enable FFB.
Good afternoon, I have a csl dd base and my problem is that the steering wheel always returns to the center, how can I solve it?
Any information on this would be helpful! Thanks!
Install the driver.
When the wheel Returns to center on Desktop then that's because the USB connection is faulty, most likely caused by driver not being installed or wrongly installed, driver repair or different USB Port could help in the latter case.
thanks.
