My new Moza R5 wheel doesn't work.
This is too bad. No way I can get my steer axis working. Pedals and buttons are ok. I was sure that AMS2 was going to be my "go to" sim. Then...I spent hours scanning the web and fora for walk arounds, how-to's, fixes. Nothing worked, It's a pity, and a waste of money, spent for the game and the dlc's, but it is what it is. The bug, I learned, has been there for years, probably there is nothing the publisher can do about it. Of course, all my other games work normally.

Had the same trouble initially with my r12. You have to map your controls first, including the steering axis.

SecretOne: thank you, I already tried that fix. MelonenDealer: steering axis can't be mapped in my case. Pedals can.

tried setting your base to 360 (or lower) then mapping steering inputs?
edit; also base has to be on and Pithouse software running before you boot up the game.
edit2; base has to be set as Direct Drive Generic in the game

My new Moza R5 wasnt recognised when set to DD Generic. I set it has Custom and it worked perfectly.

Not sure if will help but go to AMS2, properties, controllers and disable steam input.

I had issues around release and that sorted all my wheel issues. I know others with wheel issues that method worked.

Hope you manage to get it sorted.

Mates, thank you for the kind answers and good tips. The Moza is now working! What I did: I uninstalled the game, but this time, when done, I opened the documents folder, and saw that the AMS2 folder was still there, untouched. I deleted it. I reinstalled the game and all is good now! Let's try the new wheel ;-)

I was going to say, all you had to do was rename the documents folder lol, then paste your setups back in but good to see you got it working mate

Mister WU, I already tried to rename the folder, but got no joy. Steer axis didn't work, pedals and buttons did. Anyway, I'm so old that, in the day, I had to create bootable, custom boot sequences floppies for almost any game, so this was not biggie!

Wow! That makes me feel really old. I started out with a cassette drive and DOS.

I'm wondering if you're having these issues because AMS2 requires you to pull and recentre the wheel rapidly to assign the steering.
If you pull and hold nothing happens.
If you pull and recentre too slowly you get "multiple inputs detected".
You need to pull and recentre in about 1 second (90⁰ and back is enough).
Once assigned you then need to calibrate the wheel and pedals to get the correct rotation and pedal travel.
IIRC there's no Moza default profiles yet, try with the "Generic DD" profile, if still no joy use the "Custom wheel" profile.
In both cases you'll need to assign all controls manually..
Hope you get it sorted soon :tgrin:
