Thrustmaster TMX Force Feedback dropouts

Product: F1 22
Platform:Microsoft XBOX One
Summarize your bug At random points when playing, my FFB will drop completely and my wheel becomes a lot more free to move. This results in me losing time on laps, or worse case scenario actually crashing the car. This bug happened in MyTeam however its also occurred in Time Trial and Online races. As you can see in the clip my wheel is normal going through the old Singapore Sling section, yet going into S3 the wheel has no resistance and all FFB is gone
What is your 16 digit Report Code? GKMJ-PXHH-HXKM-GBEG
Which area is the bug/glitch in? My Team
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Did you have cross-play enabled? Yes
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Simply load up any session and after a while your wheels FFB will simply cut out
What happens when the bug occurs? The wheel has no resistance and all FFB completely disappears.
What do you expect to see? An extreme fix since this has been an issue since F1 2021, I even reported it in the 2021 Beta and it still isnt fixed over a year later.

  • I also experienced this. I swapped my TMX for a TX servo base but before, I would turn off the controller and turn it back on and that seemed to solve the issue temporarily. It might be motor fatigue on the wheel itself.

  • I am not a Techie, but I have had a similar problem, with my Thrustmaster TMX force feedback.  My steering wheel used to completely cut out, I would have to completely restart the wheel sometimes even restart the computer.  It would sometimes be a half hour till I could drive again.  I think what happened with my problem is the Thrustmaster TMX force feedback overheated.  I turned down my Gain settings in the Master Game Settings to 75% (see attached pic). I haven't had a problem since.  Might be worth a try?
