      If the FANATEC Podium Racing Wheel F1® motor switches off after playing for a while, it is likely due to the temperature exceeding the upper limit. Allow your Podium Wheel Base DD2 to cool down before continuing. If this occurs repeatedly, contact customer support.

      If, after the calibration run at startup, the attached steering wheel of your FANATEC Podium Racing Wheel F1® doesn’t go to the correct center position, check your Tuning Menu settings. Ensure that the value for SPR (spring) is higher than ‘000’, as this effect is necessary for correct centering. The default value is ‘100’.

      If, after playing for a while, your FANATEC Podium Racing Wheel F1® seems to weaken or fade, it might be due to the motor temperature approaching its upper limit. To resolve this, allow your Podium Racing Wheel F1® to cool down completely before resuming use.

      If the tuning display on your FANATEC Video Game Controller does not show anything or isn't working correctly, try using another steering wheel to identify the issue. Also, inspect the pins inside the Quick Release of the steering wheel to ensure they are not bent or damaged. If the problem persists with another steering wheel, the Podium Racing Wheel F1® might be damaged.

    Why is FANATEC Video Game Controller fan always on?
    • S
      Sarah HendersonSep 1, 2025
      In the event that the FANATEC Podium Racing Wheel F1® fan is always running at full speed, even immediately after being powered on and before any driving, contact our customer support, as this may indicate a malfunctioning temperature sensor. The operating room temperature should be between 15°C and 35°C.
