Cruis’n USA FFB motor question
MikeAlex:
Thanks for the replies!
Hmmm...so there doesn't seem to be an easy solution to that... The Immersion Board way is too expensive for me and using an arduino is above my willingness to learn how to use it.... ;D
Badmouth, I don't mean the circuit board, I mean the chip that controls the FFB motor. I know it doesn't work because it desoldered itself from the board! :laugh:
Anyway, I think I'll follow Badmouth's advice and wait to get another logitech wheel.
Thanks for the help guys and gals!
Howard_Casto:
Unless something has changed the immersion board is around 35 dollars on ebay right now.

Please post a pic. I still don't believe you're talking about the actual microprocessor.
If it's one of the mosfets or something, it might be worth trying to replace.
lilshawn:
i googled up some pics of the logitech board. looks like uses a switching FET in a surface mount DIP case. if that's the case, it should be easily convertible to a standard to-220 FET or tranny and be able to handle more heat.
see if you can find a part number of the blown part. i can probably cross it to a standard part.
MikeAlex:
Badmouth, the chip that desoldered itself is in the red square, I believe it's not a mosfet but then again, I'm not electronic engineer... :) Only the FFB is not working, the rest works fine!
Thanks Howard, I'm considering the immersion board but I’ll be waiting for one to be available closer to where I live (Europe) because the postage costs are prohibitive (for me).
