Ok, I'm new to all this arcade stuff, so go easy on me guys.
Was working on my daytona USA's all night tonight. They are stand alone sit down limited edition units. Got them linked up, fixed a no response break pedal on the master unit, re-wired the shifter on the slave unit, went through and adjusted settings on both machines and fabricated a new keyway for the slave machine steering wheel.
Here's my problem...
On the slave unit, the steering motor is really loud and when the gameplay is starting (rolling start screen), the steering wheel jerks from left to right constantly until the actual gameplay starts. It then levels out and suddenly the car on screen goes erratically bezerk pulling to the left really jerky looking. The force feedback is going crazy shoving the steering wheel all the ways to the left when the game play starts as well. Lots of tension on the wheel if I try and turn right. Its just fighting me. Mostly tries to pull left, but inconsistently jerks right sometimes for a quick second.
I've been in settings and the game registers fluid motion from lock to lock on the wheel.
I also pulled the dash apart and visually inspected everything. It all looks good. The belts seem to be in good shape and tension, also the wires are all in place and there appears to be no stripped gears on anything. Of course, being a noob, I don't really know what I'm looking at anyways. Any advice? I'm wondering if anyone has a easy fix, but I'm assuming that I may need to buy new parts.
Thanks in advance and go easy on me. LOL.
