I just picked up a VR and could use some help getting it running...
When I picked it up from the seller the wheel would calibrate, the monitor would get neck glow but nothing on the screen. I had to remove the control panel to get in it my truck but when I got it home I plugged the game back. The wheel did not calibrate but the game came up to the attract and looked good. I noticed that the wheel didn't calibrate because I forgot to reconnect the molex connectors. I powered the game off, reconnected the wheel and powered back on and the wheel calibrates but I just get a couple horizontal lines and a bluish tint on the monitor.
I disconnected the steering wheel again and get the same horizontal lines and bluish tint on the screen. I checked voltage at the switcher and the +5V was around 5.45V. Is that too high for these games? I also, disconnected all the molex connectors and reconnected them to no avail.
Any ideas on what I should be looking for? The manual really sucks as far as troubleshooting tips.
