Pedal Troubleshooting
Updated on March 25, 2024
Check if the different LEDs on the pedals’ print are turned on – located behind the transparent plastic cover where you connect the USB cable.
If LED 3 doesn’t light up, you are probably facing a connection issue either from not connecting the USB cable fully to the pedal or an error on your cable. Please try the following steps:
• The Asetek SimSports® Invicta™ Pedals are not compatible with connection to third party wheel bases. • Instead, plug the cable into your PC.
• Asetek SimSports® Pedals are not compatible with consoles.
• Please check if the Asetek SimSports® Pedals are compatible with the game you are playing. (https://sandbox.asetek.com/ simsports/product/invicta-pedals-brake-and-throttle/).
• Check if the elastomer is properly inserted and the thumb screw fastened, if not insert the preferred elastomer and lock it with the thumb screw. • If this doesn’t help, please contact your point of purchase.
• Change the elastomer to the preferred hardness, described in the user-manual (https://sandbox.asetek.com/simsports/product/ invicta-pedals-brake-and-throttle/). • Make sure to tighten the thumb screw to your preferred setting.
• Try lubricating your cylinder rod with PTFE Dry lube or mineral oil. • If this didn’t work: Try lubricating other moving parts, i.e. brake clevis lock pin. with PFTE Dry Lube. • If the noise persists, please contact your point of purchase
When you are experiencing loud bouncy/clicking noises on the throttle, it’s due to a lack of adjustments as the pedal arm is below the “tipping point”
Check up the following:
The plastic spring holder housing is pointing correctly (seat for plastic spring holder). The spring end stop must not hit the plastic spring holder (2-3mm of gap is needed). End stop must be adjusted higher (pedal end stop).
Explanation found in article “Throttle preload adjustment”.
The movement of the brake cylinder is intended and perfectly normal. The brake cylinder must be able to move, as there can be different tolerances depending on the angle of the pedal. The bottom bearing is a spherical bearing that can move in both directions.
Typically you need to lubricate the following:
Lock-pin Throttle rod Spring on the pedal arm
We recommend using PFTE dry spray lubrication for the throttle when squeaks occur.
Please also be aware that the plastic spring holder can be flipped and this will also make a squeak.
