Microsoft wheel HALP!!

Hey guys. Iv dug up and dusted off my old 360 wheel but i cant find the power cable or the cable from the wheel to the pedals. I have no idea what im looking for!! If any one could describe to me what they look like or throw up a pic that would be awesome!!

No problem, these are the cables for my M$ wheel.
3 things as in the pic:
- Power cable
- power supply
- wheel/pedal connector cable (same as a telephone cable far as I can tell).



Happy hunting

hey semper, don't have pic coz im at work but they use to have the old figure 8 type end plug (grey) (like the old Playstation) into a power box then into std gpo plug.
Also like a phone line connector for wheel to pedal


well....I was close Wolfy!!! nice

I have a couple at home if you need one sent over

Wow thanks guys perfect photo, hunting them down as we spea... type.

Okay, Power source sorted. Wheel to pedals no go.

I grabbed an old phone cable and no go, found another one and still no good.

Wolfie, how many wires can you see in the Modular Connector (telephone type plug)?

Looks like 4 wires mate.
That would make sense, throttle +/- and brake +/-.

Makes perfect sence, the search continues....

Dang. Found two leads that had four wires in the connectors. This time the pedals worked, but not properly

It could be faulty peddles or a faulty cable.
It could also be incorrect wiring of the cable - if the one you found and used was your genuine pedal connector cable that came with your wheel that shouldn't be a problem.

What I mean is, the cable could be wired as straight through or crossover type.
Best I can explain is, in one type the wires run straight through from the same side of the plug at both ends of the cable, in the other they're on opposite pins at each end of the cable. I'm not sure which is which.
Anyway, I checked my cable and if you line the two connectors up side by side pointing in the same direction, the wires are the same colours from left to right (black,red,green,yellow).

Wire colour won't make a difference, but the wiring sequence might be worth checking.

Side by side left to right im looking at black, red , green, yellow, then yellow, green, red, black.

Oh well, at least i know exactly what im looking for now.

Big huge mega thank you for all the help Wolfie.

If thats what you're seeing with the plugs both the same way up and pointing in the same direction then your wiring is opposite to mine. In which case I'd make a mugs bet thats the problem.

Edit: No probs sempeR, good luck finding a cable.
