In this article, we show you how to check the firmware of your Thrustmaster force feedback racing wheel base.
The firmware must be up to date in order for your racing wheel to function fully in compatible games on PC and game consoles. Also, a firmware update can sometimes resolve unusual racing wheel behaviors.

Important :
Control Panel and driver and firmware updates are only available on PC running Windows® 10 or more recent.
Game consoles do not have access to firmware information.

1- Check for the latest driver and firmware available
Open your racing wheel page on our website:

PC / PlayStation : T128 (PS4/PS5/PC) ; T248 (PS4/PS5/PC) ; T150 Force Feedback ; T300 RS ; T-GT ; T-GT II

PC / Xbox : T128 (Xbox One/Xbox Series/PC) ; T248 (Xbox One/XBox Series/PC) ; TMX Force Feedback ; TX Racing Wheel ; TS-XW Racer

PC : TS-PC Racer

At the top of the page, you will see a box displaying the latest updates available for your racing wheel base:

2- Open the control panel of your racing wheel
Make sure your PC has the latest driver available for your racing wheel.
If necessary, you will find the link to the latest DRIVERS FORCE FEEDBACK driver in the Driver section on your racing wheel page:
https://support.thrustmaster.cn/

Restart your computer to complete the installation.

Connect your racing wheel to your PC's USB port and let it calibrate.

Wait a few seconds and open the control panel:

The Game Controllers window appears onscreen: select the name of your steering wheel then click Properties.

Note:
T150 and TMX racing wheels will appear with the name of the base.

T300, TX, T-GT, T-GT II, TS-XW, and TS-PC force feedback racing wheel bases equipped with a detachable wheel will appear with the name of the base.

T128 and T248 racing wheels will appear with the name Thrustmaster Advanced Mode Racer.
