Wake-up method (Bootloader): procedure to wake up your T248 (Xbox
One/XBox Series/PC) racing wheel if it will not power on at all and is not
recognized or detected by your PC, Xbox One™, Xbox Series X™, Xbox
Series S™ (in the event of a loss of firmware).
Important note:
The wake-up procedure only applies in the specific case whereby the racing wheel
base will not power on:
- The racing wheel does not self-calibrate (automatic movements of the wheel
rim from left to right).
- No LEDs light up on the racing wheel’s servo base
System requirements: PC running Windows® 10 or more recent.
Things to verify before getting started:
- The power supply’s connector must be properly inserted at the back of
the racing wheel base
- The power plug must be properly plugged into a wall outlet
- Nous recommandons d'éviter l'utilisation de rallonge, de multiprise ou
de transformateur de courant
- The racing wheel base must be directly connected to a USB port on the
PC
o We recommend that you avoid using a USB hub, a USB extension,
or any other type of connection extension

strongly recommend that you do not use a USB hub or a USB extension for this
procedure.
