    I've been doing some more looking at the profiler. I have a similar odd situation: in my case the steering lock is correct for each car but the Overall Effects Strength setting in the profiler is ignored. It's not using the Global Default settings either.

    If I run the logitech profiler (5.10) as Administrator then the Overall Effects Strength works again, but the steering lock stops working in-game and is set back to 900. This sounds very similar to what you have.

    I tried uninstalling the Profile, deleting the G27 from devices, running 'WheelDriverCleaner.exe', and then re-installing but with the same result as above.

    1) Run as admin - I can adjust the wheel strength from the profile but have to manually adjust steering lock
    2) Run as normal - can't adjust the wheel strength but game adjusts the steering lock automatically.

    I can also shut down the profiler and AMS2 will behave exactly the same as 2) above.

    There must be a setting somewhere that windows is using hidden somewhere.

    Not sure this helps you but might give you some further options to look at. Have you tried launching AMS from the Profiler instead of from Steam?

    Already tried it all. Run as adm don't change a thing here and shutting down the profile limit the DFGT to 200º with a very heavy centering force (works like those cheap wheels, but with FFB).

    I also changed the USB port, disconnected my gamepad, uninstalled it's driver and rebooted (And them tried everything again), tried to force ID1 (and don't force), sacrificed a virgin, walked on my knees into Aparecida and some other things that are inapropriated to this space, but none of them worked.

    Seems to be some kind of issue between Madness Engine and Logitech drivers that do random bugs with different wheel models, but not just Logitech. Reiza may need to contact Logitech to solve this, but I don't think that will be an useful answer.

    At least AMS2 don't crash when I Alt+Tab it like AMS1 used to (I had the very same issue on this game... but just on AMSs... PCars 2 worked fine).

    EDIT: A couple hours ago the wheel glitched back to 900º (but unmatched even with the Copa Uno on server), but after I Alt+Tab it came back to 450 and worked fine. And the camera glitched at the start of a race with Old Stock at Interlagos and everybody got stuck with the "TV" cam without change it back to internal or whatever they were using.

    I also have the same issue with AMS1.

    No issue with my other games.

    Makes you think Reiza are using a faulty API.

    I think I have mine sorted now but it involves not running the 5.10 Profiler at all. I renamed it so that it wasn't loaded by Windows (just disabling it via Startup didn't make any difference).

    I can then set the ffb strength via Control Panel, Devices and Printers, G27 (in my case), game controller settings, properties, settings. AMS2 uses that strength and sets wheel rotation.

    I didn't use the Logitech driver, as you said, and just configured 900º and "let the game configure" via Win10's control panel and now the wheel rotation is working properly.

    Thanx, mate!
