Moza R9 centering issues?

Hey. A friend of mine has bought a Moza R9 and is having issues with it losing its centering? Once the wheel is centered and any FFB is applied, it goes to like -24 or worse and he'll have to center again. He has recalibrated it through windows, reset to factory and updated the base/wheel, etc.

Even out of the sim it loses its center, when he opens pit house, centers the wheel and turns it to its full lock, any slight pressure on the lock it loses its center again (and its VERY easy, like one finger) to push past the lock.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Has he gone into PitHouse and performed the base recovery and recalibration. Not just recenter it in PitHouse but an actual full reset recovery and recal? I takes a few minutes to perform. But it sounds like he hasn’t done that as when I had a similar issue after a firmware update I had to do that and it solved it. Otherwise I recommend getting into the Moza discord. Lots of support there including direct coms with Moza support team via DM if you can’t get it solved with the mods in the support section of their discord.

Yeah he has done the full reset and recovery. I'll be nipping up this evening to see if I can do anything but it sounds like he has tried everything. I'll jump onto their discord, thanks

I seen someone else with the same issue. They ran the reset and recovery and it fixed it. Tell him to run it again even if he has already tried it once.

Hi there, if reset and recovery the wheel base in pit house not work, please let let him submit an error report and let me know the number, I will ask s tech to check it.

The most likely problem is that the center shaft nut inside the wheel is loose. To check ( and also solve the issue ) is to:

  1. Remove your wheel from the base
  2. Unscrew the 6 bolts of your base to wheel connector with the L key tool that comes with the wheel.
  3. Once you remove.the cap, you can see inside a big center rod with a silver nut in it.
  4. Check if the nut is loose. If it is, tighten it with a wrench 🔧

This should work for the problem you mentioned
