    Ok, I just found a similar problem in another discussion. I think it's a COM port problem. My steering wheel and arduino are both on the front USB port.
    I will try again tomorrow...

    This can be a conflict effectively. It's interesting to know the source of the problem

    No, it still does not work.
    Even with only the simu plug, the game manager crash after 2 min. And then the game engine stops responding and stops working ...

    Can you please post pictures of all of your settings.

    Is there any other error message information? If so please post that.

    Hello ! Life goes on and I'm starting to have time to resume some activities :rolleyes:
    I took my simutor out of the boxes to reassemble it!
    I simplified it a bit, I just hope it will work again :)

    You can look up your SimTools license number, just log into SimTools.us: https://simtools.us/member-login/

    Use the email you purchased/obtained the License with, and if you don't have a password, click reset password.

    Hi!
    What is the Simukit kit you use? 2dof 120W?

    Hi,
    It's a 2 DOF but not exactly a simukit as currently sold. in 2014/2015, when I built my simulator, I used wiper motors (Smolka 24V), arduino UNO and sabertooth 2x25. The rest is quite similar to the SimuKit.

    I had an "platform move" version at the beginning, then I switched to a "seatmover" version.

    My specifications have always been the practicality of storing / moving the structure, therefore quite compact. Here the goal was to have the steering wheel support, the pedal support and the gear lever support, on two main aluminum profiles, so that they can be adjusted independently.
    The other point is to maintain the center of gravity of the seat under the "gimbal" but to be able to adjust the seat as in a car. So I placed the entire seatmover on a car seat rails.
    The whole structure is on wheels.

    I reassembled my simulator but it seems that I have "electrical interference" with my fanatec steering wheel... Looks like problems with electric grounded... ?
    Has anyone ever had this type of problem with a fanatec steering wheel? I'll recheck the assembly, there may be another problem elsewhere. Last time, 4 years ago everything worked ^^

    I took everything apart and plugged it back in. And I have no more problems... I can't explain it...
    Anyway, it works!
