Wheel deadzone problems

I’ve been experiencing issues setting up my logitech g920 in Forza Horizon 4. I don’t know if its just me or this is an actual problem with the wheel system but the wheel dead zones don’t seem to change no matter how you set them. Right now no matter what I change the setting too there’s is like 20 degrees of arc from dead-center where the game doesn’t sense wheel input until i turn the wheel 10 degrees left or right. This is really hindering driving with a wheel. I cant corner smoothly the dead space leaves a huge lag time between starting to steer and actual steering starting in the game. It makes it hard to make fine corrections with steering input. the only thing that kinda helps is lowering the total degree of turning from say 600 degrees to 270. this results in less dead zone in the center but in result your just jerking the wheel from side to side like you would on the controller. at 900 degrees there’s even a greater degree of arc where no steering input occurs it suddenly comes on like 25 degrees from center and veers you into a wall. it’s super annoying I hope they update the steering wheel advance setting in Forza 4 before it opens up to the general pop on. I love Forza and im fine playing with a controller but let’s be honest wheels are a lot more satisfying.

the deadzone sliders doesnt work for controller too. only the steering linearity slider works.

Similar problem for me, except there’s about 100 degrees of rotation in the wheel before ANYTHING happens in game!

I started up the game this morning with my Fanatec clubsport v 2.5 wheelbase. It had 180 degrees of deadzone (90 left and 90 right). Switched to forza 7 and there were no problems. Switched back to FH4 and reset all my wheel setting back to default and that seemed to fix things. I was then able to reapply my earlier settings.

I found that when I start up the game, I’m not to have my Xbox controller on. Press A button on the wheel to start when in that screen and then it’ll prompt you to chose an account to play on, you select your account and then when I load in steering input works fine. The only issue still is that deadzones for pedals still don’t work
