I recently purchased the Saitek Cessna rudder pedals from Amazon warehouse deals. 

I got a really good price on them, but plugged them in and quickly noticed the right toe brake is not working. Everything else functions perfectly.

 

I am a bit reluctant to return them and pay an extra £50 for brand new ones when my instinct tells me this issue can be fixed.

 

Is it worth opening them up and trying to fix them? Maybe this is a known issue that someone can offer some input on?

 

Many thanks

Have you tried setting it up the way Saitek recommends before returning it?

One thing I found that eliminates a huge amount of head scratching when installing this stuff is to go to FSX.cfg and look for [Controls]. Then find Controls_Standard=Default. Place double slashes in front of that line //Controls_Standard=Default and place in the next line Controls_Standard=Current. This will prevent this craziness where you go through and assign axis and joystick assignments, then you try the controls and they are all screwed up. That line ensures that the assignments you make become the "Current" assignments.

This is an automatic message.
