when I change my tmx wheel from 900 degrees to 360 should the wheel lock should I not be able to turn the wheel past the 360 point??? Cause when I set it to 360 or 270 I can still keep turning the wheel ??? The car don't turn no more but the wheel keeps turning it don't lock like in a real car when you get to the end of the turning radius is it supposed to lock please Someone answer !!!!

I don’t have a TMX wheel, but I’ve never used a wheel where setting the lock angle on the wheel doesn’t physically prevent it from turning any more than that. This is generally nothing to do with whatever game you’re playing, so unless it works properly in other games, it sounds like a problem with your wheel.

Well I went and bought the tx wheel 458 Italia it worked for like 10 min it locked like it should then right back to not locking when I set the rotation from 360-270 I'm stumped as to why this keeps happening!!!!

Well if you put quite a lot of force into it you'll still be able to turn the wheel more than it locked, but it wouldn't make any sense because the wheel on the game won't turn more. When you get to the lock stop applying a lot of force and you should be fine.

Also go to ts.thrustmaster.com and check the FAQs to see if you're locking the wheel correctly

Thank you for the reply.  Both wheels the tmx and the tx wheels turn past the degree of rotation I set them to. Yes it turns harder but the point is it's still turning and when I'm going to fast toward a corner I turn and it don't lock so I keep thinking I can turn the car more than I can causing me to crash. I know when I'm driving my car to work if I'm in trouble in a slide cause the wheel will lock it should do the same in the game or am I expecting to much?  Thanks for the replies in advance does anyone have a video of their wheel locking at 270 or 360 degrees?

Hi wizzard

Can you tell me how you locked the wheel? I mean, are you on PC ? Once you do a lock, did you see the test rotation done by the wheel on its own? It should do a limited degree turn on both sides if you set it to maybe 400 or whatever value compared to the original 900.
I have a thrustmaster T150. Similar wheels, but with 1080 degree rotation,
