    Its a simple fix as the wheel does not  have a definition in the Device_defines.xml file.

    This can be found  on your pc  via  "where ever you installed the game" -->EA SPORTS WRC-> Content->input->windows->devices

    Using Notepad++ ( an excellent free editor ) or even notepad   open this file (Device_defines)

    Now you can read the instructions (advisable) and check you VID and PID or you can simple add the following lines to the bottom of the file "EXACTLY"

    <device id="{027E1CBE-0000-0000-0000-504944564944}" name="sw20_v3" priority="100" type="wheel" ffb_force="1.0" />
    <device id="{C28F1CBE-0000-0000-0000-504944564944}" name="sw20_v3_(game_mode)" priority="100" type="wheel" ffb_force="1.0" />

    Hope this helps

thanks for your help.

i have open the device_defines files but can't find the file "EXACTLY".

But i found  solution, which is turn ff the wheel as the game is running, wait a couple of seconds and turn it on, and the ffb is working....
