PS5 Fanatec Shifter + Podium Rally Module no Shifting possible

Product: EA SPORTS™ WRC
Platform:PlayStation 5 Digital Edition
Summarize your bug I own a Rally Module from Fanatec. I use it with the Podium wheel Hub where the module is plugged in on the usb Slot. I also use a Fsnstec Shifter in Seq Mode. When I try to use the Rally Module the Shifter doesnt work. But when I attach an other wheel for example the the endurance Module from Fanatec, with a Hub where Are the Podium Shifter Module is attached, the sequential Shifter works without any Problems.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? PS5, Podium Rally Module attached to Podium Hub via usb interface on the Hub and without Shifter Paddle Modul+ Fanatec Shifter 1.5 in seq or in H Pattern
What happens when the bug occurs? No Manual Shifting possible
What do you expect to see? A Fix

Looking Forward for a fix

  • I believe this is not a game specific issue, but rather an issue with Fanatec Driver 455 and that hardware combination on PlayStation.

    Fanatec are aware and working on a fix for a future firmware update. Nothing EA can do unfortunately.

    I can confirm from personal experience that this issue does not occur on Xbox (I own two Rally Modules), and from what I've heard from other players it's not an issue on PC either.

  • Today I switched my Advanced Paddle Module shifter to Podium Rallye Module Hub, because I thought it would may work when the Shifter Paddles Are active. The Most weird Thing is the Endurance Module from Fanatec Works with my my Fanatec Shifter, without any Issue in Sequential Mode. Thiis Issue is only caused by the Rally Module. Which is very Annoying because I bought it only for WRC!

    Hello, the Monte Carlo Rally steering wheel does not recognize me when I start the game on PS5, but the Formula 2.5 steering wheel does and everything is perfect. I have the rally steering wheel like you, the HUB, the Podium Rally module with buttons and paddle shifters mounted next to the sequential/H shifter. Have you found a solution?

  • Hello

    On PS5 I can't play or enter the game with the Fanatec Podium Monte carlo Rally steering wheel, it's the Rally button module with the universal PODIUM HUB and magnetic shift paddles.
    And I'm using the new Fanatec ClubSport DD+ base.

    If I use the Fomula V2.5 steering wheel it lets me in, but the base recognizes it as CSL Elite, not what it really is and I have no force feedback.


    Am I doing something wrong? This steering wheel is not compatible with the game? 😥

    I guess EA has to update the game and will put in what is needed for it to recognize the new base and steering wheel and everything will work?

    Please can you get it to be able to play, having new base and steering wheel Rally specials and not being able to use them hurts and fustra a lot. :eaclorando: 

    Thanks in advance.
