Hey Andrew,

Happy New year. I am SOOOO happy to hear that you guys are now up and running. I hope you have a lot of fun!!

yes ! the 9 pin thing fits in as shown on your picture thanks very much, we then connected the wheel usb connector to the xbox & got onto Forza 3

The accelerator and brake now work fine also all the wheel buttons work i.e. xbox blue red yellow and green the horn etc BUT the wheel will not steer the car ! the wheel is dead ! it seems the only feature of the wheel that won’t work – unfortunately it’s a pretty crucial one .

I tried the settings you gave earlier in the posts although not the clutch settings as we don’t have a gearstick so I am assuming we can drive automatically.

So we just need to know how to get the wheel that turn the car ?

thanks andrew

Hey Andrew,

Now that you confirmed its a G920, I think I know the cord you are referring to. Here is how you hook up the pedals, The part that looks like a DB9 connector goes underneath the G920 wheelbase. In this picture I made a red square for where that plug goes in.

There will be a little icon that looks like a 3 pedal set directly above the plug on the wheel base bottom.

Let me know if that solves your problem.

hello again James
i checked the wheel it’s a logitech G920 phew ! it’s got an adaptor on the end converting a round connector to a USB .. the xbox Forza game recognises the wheel but the cars don’t go anywhere because of the peddle issue .. which as we said because it’s only got the male db9 connector which won’t fit the console … does that mean a db9 converter to usb will work ! … does everyone have these problems in the gaming community or i have bought these things unwisely .. it’s driving me potty ! anyway i’m very grateful for your advice with it …

That’ll be great thank you, I’m still trying to figure out what each one changes

Hey Andrew,

I should have asked this the first time, what model of Logitech wheel is it? Only one Logitech wheel will work on Xbox One and Xbox One S – it is called the Logitech G920. Did you buy the wheel second hand or on Ebay?

There are DB 9 to USB adapters if you are curious, but I am about 100% sure that wont work, otherwise many people wouldn’t have gone out and bought new racing wheels when the Xbox One came out.

thanks very much James you have saved me some messing about – I will stick with the wheel and pedals in that case BUT the next problem is that the logitech pedals I have are fitted with what looks like a male DB 9 prong adaptor and the brand new xbox one s unit i bought my son only seems to have usb connectors ! ! is there a dongle or adaptor i can get ? i only just bought the wheel & pedal set but was assured it was for xbox ! i’m thinking i have been duped … any help would be appreciated

Hey Andrew,

I have never tried that, but I would imagine to do it (not sure if its possible) you would need to go into your logitech profiler on a PC and reconfigure the button layout to make your paddle shifters your gas and brake. I think even if you do figure it out the problem would be your gas and brake would be all or nothing. The paddle shifters engage like a button and don’t have a Potentiometer built in so you can’t do things like ease on the gas of apply a little brake. Driving like that with the paddle shifters would be very hard by the way they are designed.
