![]() If not then hopefully this will help someone else. I've just resolved it so if either of you are still hanging onto those broken handbrakes, this should help. Move out of that case original electronics so testing will be easy.īTW, if you don't have one already – get a simple magnet, any will do – this is a hall sensor – it measures magnetic field and according to it strength sensor sends voltage from 0v to 5V back to Arduino. Get/borrow/steal a simple multimeter and I will help You to troubleshoot it. ![]() Your original sensor is bent, it should be like that?Īgain, my suggestion is to troubleshoot Your old electronic – it will be way easier. You can plug old sensor to new Adruino and check if it work, if so – most likely Arduino is faulty. ![]() In the code, in line "int sensorValue = analogRead(A0) " change "A0" to "A2" and upload to Arduino, open serial window (magnify glass icon on top right) and You will see sensor value. To make that sensor work is very easy – in Arduino IDE go to file>Examples>01 Basics>AnalogReadSerial. You did not post picture of original Arduino – remove it entirely, plug it to computer, take a picture of it while it's plugged and upload here. Tho I recommend checking all wiring and contacts first of Your original electronics – Arduino Pro Micro do not dye for no reason, it's very likely a failed USB cable.įor more help please post high resolution pictures of internal electronics. As a last measure You can desolder chip from original board and put it on Your new Arduino Pro Micro – it should work if You make all the connections right and will not fry the chip in the process. To make it work with default drivers will not be easy or even impossible due to proprietary code manufacturer used. If you can't fix it and want to replace electronics – it's easy.ġst You need to hook Your sensor correctly and get data from it to Arduino.Ģnd You have to make Your Arduino Pro Micro as a HID device. I recommend You to replace USB cable first, it's a big chance that it will work again. If it gets 5V that means that it's sensor or wire to sensor issue or USB data wire is broken. USB Controller: Arduino Leonardo -> Rudder moves with good sensitivity 0 (no magnet) - 100% (magnet close),Z Axis still 50%, but all other inputs empty.First – if You can't figure out why your toy broke in a first place I don't think You are able to fix it But I'll try to help – check wires first, check if internal electronics gets 5v power from USB, it might be simple connection fix. What I do: Plug into USB 2.0 Slot in old computer running same OS, basically a clone drive ![]() USB Controller: Arduino Leonardo -> X Rotation, Y Rotation, Rudder (the Hall Effect Sensor) and Throttle are all maxed, no change when magnet is brought closeĪrduino IDE: Arduino Leonardo on ComX -> Native Serial Port, Board info can not be found What I do: Plug into USB 3.0 Slot (direct to mobo, through powered PCIe card, or through powered usb 3.0 hub, all same results)ĭevice manager: USB Composite Device, with "latest drivers" Pics and walk through of what I did below I believe this was a similar case with an old XB360 wireless adapter I used to use: it would only work in the usb 2.0 ports, and never the 3.0 ports.Īre there any workarounds to this? Please let me know. Unfortunately, I haven't had any success on any port. I've updated all my USB drivers to what I believe is the latest version. Since this is a purchased arduino, I don't really know what to do wrt to changing the sketch if that is even possible, or what to do in terms of my computer. So I tried my old computer (running win 10 still, similar OS just older cpu, mobo, ram) and the controller's inputs were recognized instantly, and perfectly in terms of sensitivity. I have 16 or so USB 3.0 ports, motherboard, pci-e card and powered usb hubs, but none have worked. I figured the board died, so I reached out to the seller who very kindly sent me a new board. Not sure what happened, I didn't install any new updates. The input was recognized in windows as fully engaged, and in the case of a handbrake (like another post here from the past), it means my car doesn't go anywhere. It worked perfectly in every game, until it stopped working one day. A few months back, I purchased a USB Hall effect sensor handbrake. No USB 2.0 ports available in new motherboard, trying two different PCI-E USB 3.0 ports did not work. Did not install any new drivers, just stopped working. TLDR: (Purchased & Preprogrammed) Arduino Leonardo with Hall Effect sensor works perfectly in USB 2.0 port of old computer, no longer works in USB 3.0 ports.
