OK not everyone knows what is POT, Volt-Ohm meter,..

[trotter2k]

this is the POT, just ajust it until its right, looks as tho its slipped as i had to do it to a cheap wheel i got before i got my G27, i had to drill out the hex bolts olding the pedals on as they rounded off last night, hope you get it fixed.

Yea this sort of thing happens when you subject the pedal to any repeated extreme loading. In other words, don't stomp your pedals in frustration. To solve the problem you have to find a way to stop the potentiometer from moving. Even if it moves only a little bit, it's enough to cause this problem. I use a piece of plastic shoved between the pot and the floor of the pedal assembly. It's not the most sophisticated solution, but it works, and knowing that stomping your pedals violently only excacerbates the problem, should really make you a smoother driver.

Most drivers only have between 2-4 positions on the throttle that they can consciously press with any sort of precision, truly gifted drivers can have as many as 8-12, just something to keep in mind.

It may be they just need cleaning..I had the same problem and fixed it by cleaning the potentiometers (Pots) with Electrical Contact Cleaner.

Basically you take the pedal case apart, clean out any dust and debris then use contact cleaner on the pots, the ones on the G25 have a small hole on the back cover, I sprayed it in there and it took care of the issue.
