Logitech Extreme 3D Pro: How do I fix the joysick’s x axis plastic that broke

Mon, 10 Aug 2026 16:35:32 -0700

I noticed a weird behaviour in my game, and in calibration i saw that the x axis of my jostick was working poorly, i took it apart, and found out how it works, (kinda similiar to the Z rotation sensor) and found that it broke. Now i’m a rookie in fixing stuff, but i cant really apply glue to either side of the plastic because, first it doesnt look like it would be long enough to work, and also because i have no way of holding them together until the glue sticks. If neither of these problems are valid, i could try somehow, but before i need a replacement i thought i’d look it up.

The way it works (or it looks like) is the cable pulls the sensor when the joystick is moved, and that little (broken) plastic ephasises the movement so that it can be detected properly. If it breaks, the cable kinda just hangs there, barely pulling on it, as seen in the video attached.

Logitech G29 Driving Force: Logitech G29 calibrates by turning hard left (-450°) on startup but is

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 19:28:08 -0700

Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue with my Logitech G29 (approximately 5 years old).

When I power it on, it does not perform the normal startup calibration (left → right → center). Instead, it immediately turns hard to the left (approximately -450°) and stops.

Here is what I have already tested:

The wheel is detected correctly in Windows (joy.cpl).
The wheel is detected correctly in Logitech G HUB.
The steering axis is centered correctly (50%) when the wheel is physically centered.
All buttons work normally.
I tested it on both PC (Forza Horizon) and PS4 (Gran Turismo 7), and the same issue occurs.
I tried different USB ports and different power outlets.
I reinstalled G HUB.
I downgraded G HUB to the March 2021 version and also tested the latest version.
The firmware is up to date.
The issue remains exactly the same.

There is no visible physical damage to the wheel.

Could this be caused by a faulty encoder wheel/position sensor, the force feedback motor, or the main PCB?

Has anyone experienced the same issue and successfully repaired it?

Thank you!

PDP Rematch Advanced: Where to find replacement back buttons for PDP Rematch Advanced?

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 11:37:06 -0700

I am looking for replacement back buttons for my PDP Rematch Advanced controller (Model 049-023). My current buttons are broken, and I've already looked through the iFixit replacement guide, but I can't find where to buy the actual replacement parts.

Does anyone know where I can source these buttons, or is there a 3D printable file available for them? Are there any other controller models that use compatible back buttons?

GameSir Nova 2 Lite: Right trigger design flaw?

Tue, 02 Jun 2026 13:57:38 -0700

The design of the slide switch to enable short trigger/rapid trigger pulls has a flaw in the design is that over time the physical stopper becomes a cantilever point. The point of stress is now put upon the hinge point and it will begin to stress crack and break if the user keeps pulling hard with the same amount of force that would be used when rapid trigger switch not engaged. Is there anyway to repair or replace the hinge?
