I recently ordered a Thrustmaster TX Leather Edition racing wheel and TH8A Shifter and started using them right out of the box. I started up Forza Horizon 3 on my PC and it read my wheel and shifter perfectly (shifter plugged in back of wheel.) I went to play Dirt Rally and found out the game couldn’t read my wheel. So I updated the drivers on both my wheel and shifter and now it seems like when I’m on my PC, my wheel doesn’t read the shifter being plugged into the back of it. I’ve tried re-installing all the drivers, but still nothing. I have noticed that on FH3 it recognizes my Thrustmaster TX Leather Edition as the Thrustmaster TX Ferrari 458 Italia Edition. Even if I change the wheel setting to the leather edition and let it save, every time I load the game back up it always presets to the 458 edition. Also Dirt Rally reads my wheel as the 458 edition too. My wheel and pedals still work fine, but the shifter does not work. The shifter works on dirt rally when plugged in via USB, but not when in the back of the wheel. (For games like Forza 6 Apex and Forza Horizon 3 on PC) I tried it with Forza 6 and Forza Horizon 3 on my Xbox One and it reads my wheel correctly (Leather Edition) and the shifter does work. So I’m guessing it might be some driver issues with the wheel. Not really sure though. If you could help me out or know how to fix this, I would definitely appreciate the help. Thanks.

I have been going through the exact same disaster after I updated FIRMWARE on my gear. This is very disappointing, and seeing that you posted 2 months ago there in no hurry to ensure peripheral support is keeping up with their games.
