Why is the MOZA R3 wheel shaking?

If your MOZA R3 wheel is shaking excessively, it may be due to multiple factors requiring troubleshooting. First, check if the wheelbase is securely mounted to your desk or rig. Any looseness can lead to vibrations during gameplay, creating the sensation of shaking. Ensure that all screws and clamps are tightened properly.

Another potential cause could be the force feedback settings. If the force feedback strength is set too high, it may cause the wheel to overreact to road feedback, leading to shaking. Adjusting these settings within the MOZA software can often resolve the issue.

Additionally, make sure that the racing game you are using has optimal settings for your wheel, as some games may not translate force feedback smoothly, leading to unwanted vibrations.

Pro Tip: Experiment with reducing force feedback strength and recalibrating the wheel to see if that mitigates the shaking.

Consideration: If the shaking persists after troubleshooting, it might indicate a hardware issue, in which case contacting customer support is advisable.
