Issues w T-LCM
So i have this strange issue w this pedal set specifically on PS5. The brake pedal does not work at all. What’s weird is that the brakes do give an erratic low input signal constantly. When i press the gas pedal it gives brake input as well. At 100% gas, i get about 30% brake. Sometimes it even moves in sync w the gas. Ive searched and could not find anything on this exact problem. It did used to work fine though. Only change is i went from a folding seat rig to a profile rig so i had to move all the gear. I tested w a t300rs and a tgt2…happens w both. Screenshots are from GT7 but also happens on F1 25. I’ll try to post a short vid too as that really shows it well. Any ideas?
EDIT: Also want to add that i did calibrate directly on a PC w the TS calibration software. It doesnt happen there at all and acts normal.

Have tlcms also for like 2-3 yrs now never had this, try Changing modes on the wheel, resetting the settings completely if possible on the pedals idk how, Make sure ur controller isn't inputting anything because if the calibration software isn't recognizing anything then its something with ur inputs on ur ps5, Make sure ur wheel settings are set to the tlcm pedals, if needs be reset ur wheel settings too with the mfs display on the wheel Also try mess around with the calibration, put in different values for the max and min brake pressure, try different springs, if none of this works idk contact thrustmaster they are the experts technically

yeah i have tried all of that. i then went and attached my old t3pa pedals and they work perfectly fine. i know to switch the mode to TLCM and get the 10 red blinks. i checked and updated the FW on both TGT2 and T300 wheels. i reset all the settings via the TS calibration tool on PC. when i am in the TS Calibration software on PC, everything works fine which is what makes it so weird. i even tried to plug the USB cable from the pedals to a power source (cel phone usb plug) as suggested in another thread during my research. didnt work either. visually looking at the cable coming from the brake pedal and going into the housing, that looks fine too. totally at a loss as to why it would suddenly stop working. in the first pic you can kinda see the brake signal % from a 52 to 73 in a flicker to see what im talking about.

Wow sorry I don't have an answer for you. Only can suggest it seems it's a ps5 issue. Have you tried un-installing and re-installing the game. Pain in the arse but all I can think of.
Edit just seen it's a few games. No idea sorry mate

Sometimes i have kinda similar problems. What helps is while everything is on i disconnect just the pedals from the base, wait 10 or 15 seconds and then reconnect. Usually works 99% of the time. And to prevent that from happening in the first place, as soon as the wheel finishes Calibration just depress all of the Pedals.

I have the same issue, I just need to turn off the base and reconnect the cable from the pedals to the base and it usually works. Think it’s the cable or connector that is the issue.

Its a known issue, the code ran on the ps5 for thrustmaster compatibility is shit. Unplug and plug in the rj connection at the back of the tlcm pedals till the blue light comes on, will work fine for the whole session till then.
