A new shifter position can feel fine in the garage screen and then put your hand into the wheel rim during a downshift. Even a small change is worth checking in the order you'll use it. Start at the cockpit, move to the input screen and finish with a practice run.
Run the checks in order
- Inspect the mount with power off. Confirm the correct hardware and tightening instructions for the part. Adjust the seat through its normal range and check that fasteners, brackets and cables clear the driver and adjacent controls.
- Check input before loading a race. Make sure the sim recognizes the device and shows the expected inputs. Check resting positions and normal range for the controls you changed. If you moved a button box, verify the actions you use at the start, on pit entry and during a race.
- Drive a short practice run. Try a start, a heavy braking zone and a couple of shifts while turning. If a bracket shifts, a cable catches or an input disappears, stop and fix it before returning to the session.
Write down anything you had to change in the sim, including bindings and profiles. A photo of the final bracket position helps if you move the rig or need to reinstall the part. If you're unsure about the fit of a ProSimRacing part, check the listing or get in touch with support with your cockpit model and a photo of the mounting area.
