@NormBash84I'm on PC so that's obviously not an option for me. The only workaround is to quit back to desktop and restart the game after each race/session.
Try alt-tabbing out of the game, and then back in. I've got this exact issue with my Fanatec CSL DD, and alt-tabbing seems to fix it again. The same bug occurred prior to the last patch, and was supposed to have been fixed. This latest patch seems to have broken it again.
I haven't bothered testing it on the last few patches (or indeed played the game at all), so I thought I'd check in to see if anything's changed on the 1.12 patch, so I can hopefully start playing a game I paid £60 for!
Unfortunately on my very first attempt (starting one race, quitting, then starting another in quick succession) FFB once again stopped working. However, one of the workarounds I tried before with no luck (sort of similar to some of the those suggested above) was to unplug the wheel's USB cable from my PC and then re-insert it, causing the wheel to reset (re-calibrate?) and spin back into action. On the 1.12 patch this all of a sudden appears to work and FFB returns.
So there has to be something going on where the game loses contact with the wheel.
@EA_Groguet: Is there any way for a reset to be done in game so I don't have to keep unplugging the USB cable every time FFB disappears?
@EA_Groguet: I just had FFB completely drop out a few times in a row. Luckily the work around of unplugging the USB cable and plugging it back in again overcame the issue.
But I noticed that if I actually finish the race, then go back to the main menu to start a new one, FFB seems to work. But if I quit early to start a new race, it will be disappear (and I need to do the workaround I mentioned above). Obviously there's no way to "finish" Time Trial so it appears that quitting Time Trial and starting a race causes FFB to stop working.
