I had this problem. I hadn't used my wheel for a year or so. Plugged in the pedals and usb. Buttons all worked fine, but wouldn't calibrate and just turned hard left. Tried all sorts of methods to get it to work and was about to pull it apart when i noticed the power plug. I didn't plug the thing into power. Embarrassing to admit but hopefully might solve the problem for others. 🤦‍♂️
