I’ve recently noticed that, while i’m steering to the right, a noise comes from the motor shaft and the steering wheel feels 1-2mm lose.
It feels like the shaft is lose on the back side of the base.
I removed the quickrelease, turned the motor shaft by 180 degrees, reinstalled the centered quickrelease and re-centered the steering wheel into the true drive. Now it feels loose while i’m steering to the left.
I can also feel the loose when i push with one hand and pull the other, but only while the steering wheel is turned to the left.
I suspect play in your QR? In which case, you can tigthen it up with the screws underneath the QR.
If it was play in the motor-shaft (which I need to say, I very much doubt) you will have this movement in all directions. The fact that it is directional, strongly points to QR that needs tightening up.
Thanks for your response, i hope you’re right mate. I’ll try to tightening up the QR.
But how do you explain the fact, that after i turned the shaft by 180 degrees, keeping the QR straight, the movement changed from the left to the right?
Allright, thanks for video. I have contacted Mika over PM here already yesterday and Granite Devices RMA channel today. If no one will reply or contact you directly, i will keep you updated over email in next 24h.
Unfortunately I’ve had a more or less worst flu of this decade that causes me to be out of office. I’m not handling RMA cases anyway, but I see your mail in our support.
Hey @nicsos123 did you get your problem resolved?
I’m afraid my sc2 Pro has the same problem. I hear knocking from the back in nearly the same scenario.
Hi,
I have the problem with loose shat too but in each direction.
I checked tightness of Simucube Quick Release system. Problem still exist.
Any help? Should I claim fo warranty repair?
