Brake fault on Logitech GT wheel

Bought logitech GT steering wheel 2weeks ago, everything went well until a fault developed with the brake.The brakes on slightly just about all the time and I have to lift it up with my toes when I don't need braking. Is there a brake adjustment I can make or do I have to send it back?

Ring Logitech. They will do a door to door replacement.

Re: Brake fault on Logitech GT wheel

I have the same problem and looked up the logitech forum. One trick that works is to keep the pedal slightly depressed when the caliberation is taking place i.e when the wheel spins around in the begining...this works for me.

Let us know if you have managed to get it replaced by logitech.

Cheers!

Logitech replaced the steering wheel straight away, no questions asked. Will try your method if the same thing happens again. Thanks
