6 การแก้ไขปัญหา

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your MOZA R12 wheelbase.

6.1 No Power / Not Turning On

• Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the wheelbase and the wall outlet.
• Verify the power switch on the rear of the wheelbase is in the "ON" position.
• ตรวจสอบว่าปลั๊กไฟติดผนังใช้งานได้ปกติหรือไม่ โดยลองเสียบอุปกรณ์อื่นเข้าไป
• Inspect the power supply unit for any visible damage.

6.2 Wheelbase Not Detected by PC / MOZA Pit House

• Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the wheelbase and your PC.
• Try connecting the USB cable to a different USB port on your PC (preferably a USB 3.0 port).
• Restart your PC and the wheelbase.
• Reinstall the MOZA Pit House software and drivers.
• Check Device Manager in Windows to see if the wheelbase is recognized (even with an error).

6.3 No Force Feedback or Weak FFB

• Verify that the wheelbase is powered on and connected to the PC.
• Check FFB settings in MOZA Pit House; ensure FFB strength is not set to zero or very low.
• Check in-game FFB settings; ensure FFB is enabled and strength is adequate.
• Ensure the game is properly configured to use the MOZA R12.
• Update wheelbase firmware and MOZA Pit House software to the latest versions.

6.4 ความร้อนสูงเกินไป

• Ensure the wheelbase has adequate ventilation and its cooling fins are not obstructed.
• Reduce the overall FFB strength in MOZA Pit House or in-game settings if overheating occurs frequently.
• Allow the wheelbase to cool down if it becomes excessively hot. The intelligent temperature control system should manage this, but prolonged high-intensity use in a poor environment can still lead to high temperatures.
