Simulator Controls Not Matching Controls Diagram
If your controls aren't behaving the way they’re shown in the Controls Diagram, the wrong configuration may be selected—or a driver may be missing for one of your USB devices.
This can lead to levers or pedals functioning incorrectly or not being mapped to the correct actions in the simulation.
How to Fix It
- Open the Options > Controllers menu and choose the correct configuration for your control set.
- If using third-party devices like a Logitech steering wheel:
- Ensure the device drivers are installed.
- Connect the power adapter before plugging in the USB cable.
Once configured properly, your controls should match the diagrams exactly.
