(I've done it on pc for my T300 and it works very well. The process is the same for TX. (The instructions are copied below from the Thrustmaster site (or go to TM support and look at FAQ for your wheel). It depends which wheel rim you are using, but here's a direct copy from TM site - 'Reconfiguring the racing wheel's center value (If the racing wheel is slightly off-center in the Control Panel) - If using a Xbox One™, we recommend performing this procedure in the Xbox One™ system's menu (not in a game). - If using a PC, we recommend performing this procedure via the Windows® Desktop (not in a game), after exiting the Control Panel. 1) Connect the racing wheel's USB cable (on Xbox One™ or on PC), then wait for the auto-calibration phase to end. 2) Turn the racing wheel fully to the left (until you reach the stop). 3) Turn the racing wheel fully to the right (until you reach the stop). 4) Make sure that your racing wheel is perfectly centered ; while holding it in this position, press the: Y, X & MODE buttons simultaneously (FLASH, PIT & MODE buttons on the 458 CHALLENGE GTE wheel & 599XX EVO 30 Alcantara® wheel) (K, N & MODE buttons on the F1 wheel). 5) The racing wheel's LED briefly changes colour, then reverts to its initial colour. This means that the wheel's center value has been reset and automatically saved to the device's internal memory (you do not need to repeat the procedure every time you connect the racing wheel); this applies to all of the TX's wheels (458 ITALIA, 458 CHALLENGE GTE, F1, etc.). YOU ARE NOW READY TO RACE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarno1991 0 Posted April 22 Thanks for the reply. tried it a couple of times but it does not work maybe because i have the open wheel add on? the light on the base does not change color when i press the button combo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steviejay69 1,059 Posted April 22 http://ts.thrustmaster.com/faqs/eng/thr_eng_00157.pdf it would appear that buttons 10, 3 and MODE should be the key combo. Hold 10 & 3 with two fingers of one hand then press the MODE with the other hand. If this does not work I would check the firmware was updated to v55 and use the default wheel rather than the Open Wheel rim. It may just be that because the Open Wheel came out after the TX base that the update lacks this function. If you really can't achieve it, drop TM a tech support email, they may be able to check or fix it for the next TX firmware. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarno1991 0 Posted April 22 Thanks! yes i think the problem is that the wheel came out later. i sold my 458 italia wheel maybe later on i will buy a Ferrari F1 wheel. Send a E-mail to thrustmaster now wait for a reply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morsify 121 Posted April 22 (edited) Yes 3 + 10 + mode should do it. (and meanwhile in case anyone wants the key combination for the T300, it's 5 + 2 + mode). Edited April 22 by Morsify Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morsify 121 Posted April 22 I just tried it with my open wheel addon on my T300 and it does work (but for me it's 5 + right paddle(2) + mode). So I would give it another go - remember, full left rotate, full right rotate, back to exact centre, then press 3 + 10 + mode briefly. Then look in TM control panel to see if your centre position is 50.0%. BTW, do NOT worry if it doesn't end up in the centre when it self calibrates, it does not always, simply because of the speed of rotation, it sometimes spins and stops off centre - what matters is the 50.0% in the control panel. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarno1991 0 Posted April 22 I give it a try the full left en right turn and the button combo all needs to be done in the Xbox home screen? Found this https://support.thrustmaster.com/en/kb/7394-en/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
