Stuck In Smooth Steering Problem

Hi Guys. I’m going to ask this in here because being tuners you’re the type to fiddle about with settings and therefore may be able to help me. So in using my elite controller (series 1) I had been using “smooth” for the left stick (steering) sensitivity. I’d found this sensitivity helps in some rare cases. Alas I’m now stuck on smooth steering no matter what. I got it unstuck then used it again and got it stuck again, haha. It’s a real pickle cos it negatively affects my performance quite a lot in most cases. I don’t know what I did or what I was doing to get it unstuck before but I’ve tried everything yet still I’m always in smooth steering. Even when using a STANDARD Xbox controller (not an elite) that doesn’t have such adjustable settings, it’s still stuck on smooth steering. Has anyone else encountered this before? I can’t think of anything else I can try besides uninstalling the game but I’d rather try everything before that. Even an uninstall isn’t sure to fix it. I wonder what I could be missing? Any help would be appreciated…
