Update videos on the Hydro Install: Part1 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYXJg6mXdpd7jbc Part 2 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpa6gmaloKiqiMU

[@Shdx_Fb]

Watched this video couple years ago when I had no wheel. Thank God I found it again because I finally got a wheel. Just bought a real hydro, glued a switch in and wired it to a button. works fine thanks 👍

[@clipzz7868]

does the wire sticking out of the front connect to a switch/button?

[@whysoslow1999]

I love how smoothly you do everything, idk why.

[@paule7228]

Thanks mate - i ended up soldering to B as i wanted to use in Forza as well as Dirt Rally. Your disassembly was really helpful though. Good to see handbrake and shifter on the left side, which is actually the right side ;)

[@paule7228]

Also Some tips for others: I used standard RCA AV cable - low profile and flexible, less likely to break under stress and already has a plug as a bonus. I wanted to keep buttons on wheel so kept wiring central as possible so back of casing would fit back on. Also press glue down before fully set to keep low profile.

[@KrishneilGarib]

Paul E Great tips! Cheers bud! Didn't even think to use an RCA cable! Had tonnes of spare ones around! Genius!

Great job mate! I was just searching for something like this! Thank you!

[@1313CHORIZOMAN]

I mapped my paddle up shift for my ebrake. And made "O" my upshift . I usually play with the h pater shifter and pulling on that lever felt more natural. One day il get a e brake

[@teknastyk]

hmm.. i did think of making both paddles the handbrake but.. didnt thought on swithing the upshift there - great choice Sir. :D

[@DrewPeakoc]

Great video. Really helpful. I'm wondering if you think that is possible to use a trigger from a PS4 controller as the new "R3 button" . I'm trying to get a more control over the handbrake instead of either off or on. What do you think?

[@anonymus7943]

100% accurate. Thanks, great video.

[@michaelpotter704]

Thanks bro you just made my 11yr old son happy happy. He's been wanting the E-brake on his G29 now I can hook him up thanks again every helpful video ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@joffbrown]

i would like to thank you again i followed step by step and it works really well thanks

[@blaster240_]

What wire did you use

[@eztgr]

Very slick video tutorial mate 👍. I just cant seem to get the wheel back on flush. The right paddle not hitting the switch. I’ve shaved abit off the plastic where the wire presses against but still no good. More shaving i guess.

[@KrishneilGarib]

Cheers, yeah sometimes the wire will pinch on some of the plastic. Maybe try a small piece of paper in the suspected area, it should get an imprint of where it's contacting.

[@eztgr]

@@KrishneilGarib Managed to put it back together after shaving the glue and plastic. So after some mad drifting sessions the wheel started to randomly bring up the menu when more then 1 full tun occured. Opened it up and noticed one of the solder points eventually loosened up the original solder point. This caused all sorts of random stuff from the wheel. So, back to the drawing board. I might try again on the spare G29 and pay extra attention to the glue spots

[@FeedinOnPandaa]

I did this hand brake mod and I accidentally ripped all the wires out of the connector when I was pulling the hub out lol I guess I forgot to be careful just gotta repin the connector now🤦‍♂️

[@KrishneilGarib]

Woops!! Should hopefully be easy to pin back in!

[@aussiebattler8438]

What an epic video extremely detailed

[@bruno_philippi]

Should i weld in the same spot in the g920 for the xbox? or in another button?

[@christosmikel.5321]

So what if you don’t do all these with the wheel and just wire the handbrake with a second classic controller in the X button? I mean you can always use 2 controllers as one, 1 the wheel and 2 the controller as a co pilot. That requires the set up in the controller, I mean we must Disable the AUTO SLEEP. What do you think?

[@RuubjeDK]

Does this work

Looking foward to the hydro e-brake video

[@KrishneilGarib]

+iTzCqmboPvP Just gathering bits and pieces for it still so might make it a 2 part video on the hydro :)

[@AceMaverick]

Hey man, great video. I did everything as you did but for some reason my handbrake isnt working. Any tips? (R3 still functions on wheel)

[@KrishneilGarib]

The wire you added, try joining the two ends together at the switch side and see if r3 gets activated. If it does you wired the switch incorrectly, just change the pins. If it doesn't then ur solder connection is not working or you put the wires on the wrong spot on the PCB.

[@1TigeRRacing1]

i just finished my g29 today . same like urs now need to do that handbrake XD last part to go thank you very helpful ! but i noticed my wheel is broken from inside any tips on fixing it i mean the plastic that near motors ? glue can help ?to make it stronger or any advice ?

[@KrishneilGarib]

2MaFiA2 thanks buddy! Which plastic broke? I'm not sure where you mean. Maybe try a strong plastic glue. Its usually available at your local hardware store. A 2 part mix, they are usually very strong. Give it a shot! All the best.

[@1TigeRRacing1]

look at ur video bro at 8:22 u can see front left side plastic where is the motor but now i look there is metal holding it :S

[@edgarsanchinelli7466]

I think you're referring to the bearing carrier, it typically cracks. I've had to order a replacement on eBay to fix mine. Have to be careful to not be too hard pulling/pushing on the wheel. Rotation is ok but maybe that can even be a cause. I tried Gorilla glue to hold mine together until finally having to replace. Good luck

[@skydragon8538]

Oh yeah also, how do you make your parking brake? Can you make a tutorial please?

[@codylaneburch]

Where can I go and what type of wire should I use to connect the switch to the motherboard? I dont want to fry my g920.

[@key.5244]

couldnt you tap into the wires for the PCB? Like maybe use a volt meter and find which wire(s) have/dont power when pressed, then splice into that wire? so you wouldnt need to solder your control panel or have wires running throughout and not worry about the wires getting tangled or coming undone?

[@KrishneilGarib]

+OhhKey! Unfortunately no because the wires to the other PCB are just a resistive circuit or could possibly be a serial communication. Meaning multiple buttons exist on a single wire and the other PCB determines which button is pressed by measuring the resistance or the serial command being sent.

[@michaelbaird1459]

Thinking of doing this, could u not drill a bigger hole were u struggled to fit the wire through

[@KrishneilGarib]

Michael Baird Possibly could man! To be honest I didn't even think of doing that! but iirc it was quite deep in where u need to drill, so might need a long drill bit. Give it a shot when ur doing yours and let me know :)

[@michaelbaird1459]

KRaZi.TV ok man will let u know if I try it !!

[@brandonfoshee1698]

KRaZi.TV can you mess up your pcb doing this

[@KrishneilGarib]

FOSHEEMOTO If your new to soldering, I'd get some help from a friend that has some experience. You want to avoid putting down too much heat around any components on your pcb. If you know exactly where your soldering to (which in this case you do and its quite easy) you can always shield any other components near by, by using Kapton tape around the area as a shield. It deflects some of the heat. Generally though, it would take a big mess up to do damage.

[@ignaciocarvajal2612]

great video great work

[@StaticChe]

Im buying all the things I need from Amazon (soldering kit/wire/heat shrink tubing/and some sort of button) I’ll be fabricating the handbrake myself. I’m just not sure what wire to pick up. Any advice?

[@kurt-io5xi]

Hi, a little bit late to comment but i hope you see it anyway. I have a button with 3 inputs for cables wich 2 of them should i use. Tnx for reply

[@KrishneilGarib]

Usually with the 3 inputs, one is common, one is normally open (NO) and one is normally closed (NC). You would want to use common and normally open (NO). Sometimes its labelled with NO or NC so check for that first. If there is no label, use a multimeter in continuity mode (the one where there is a buzzer sound if you join the two prongs of the meter together). Now find the combination on the switch where when you have it attached initially there is no buzzer sound, but when u press the button then it buzzes. Thats the two prongs you will need to wire in :) hope that helps.

[@kurt-io5xi]

Krishneil Garib Thank you🤗

[@masterson2546]

Is it easy too mess this up because i dont want too take too much risk

[@KrishneilGarib]

Tele-J THXRXPY If you are not confident with soldering, please get an experienced friend or a shop to do this for you. It's straight forward, but can become tricky and end up in a mess if you are new to soldering.

[@FeedinOnPandaa]

I accidentally ripped pulled to hard on the hub and ripped the wires out of the pins for the connector for the controller so now I gotta re pin it but no biggy

[@andrewbenitez1298]

Is it possible to take out the hot glue that you put without messing up the board??

[@KrishneilGarib]

Andrew Benitez yes the hotglue should not mess up the board if u decide to remove. Again just be careful to not pull at it with a lot of force. It should just sort of peel away once u lift at an edge of the dried glue.

[@andrewbenitez1298]

KRaZi. Thank you. Video really helped

[@88Nikoli]

A couple of drops of isopropyl alcohol will remove hot glue completely without any risk to board whatsoever !

[@lorantbenyak6116]

Just a simple question.... when u turn that wheel all the way from one side to another, u twist that wire all the time ?

[@KrishneilGarib]

Nah theres enough slack that if it catches it will just pull the slack up. Same as the original pcb wiring.

[@Jaynic015]

Bro how are You,look the cable of the pcb is broke what is the name of that cable.can i Buy it.is the cable from the green board inside between motors that go to the wheel motherboard of the button.please and thanks

[@naki754wt9]

Do you know how to wire into the paddle shifter or A,B button can’t seem to figure out which pin to wire into

[@TheGuitarnob]

I can't find the B button

[@lukahyuga3919]

Hi! can i do the same but in the button "X"? or theres no point of contact to solder? Thank you. good job.

[@KrishneilGarib]

Luka Hyuga Unfortunately I haven't been able to trace the X button circuit to a full contact point. It is a resistance based button so multiple buttons activate on the one Circuit. Have a further look on KZbin someone may have already found the correct contact point for other buttons :) also keep in mind most games let you reassign buttons so R3 could become whatever X is usually. Goodluck!

[@lukahyuga3919]

KRaZi. Yeah that what i was thinking about. Another thing i need to ask you... do you think i can do the same thing with a PS3 controller? the some conection? because i am afraid that a can lose my wheel guarantee.

[@KrishneilGarib]

+Luka Hyuga I think you may find that the controller and the wheel may not always work at the same time (to the same account). Just like if you have two ps4 controllers, only one controller will function at a time in the game. You may need to test that part first but I do believe you will run into issues with games. If you are not confident doing the modification, maybe wait till your warranty is over then attempt it with a friend that has experience with electronics and soldering :)

[@lukahyuga3919]

KRaZi. i already tried to accelarate with the pedal and press X on the controller and it was a little delay to actual start processing the handbrake, it is not to much but i think i can handle that. The problem with the guarantee is that i have more 1 year and 8 months to end xD I have no problems to soldering and something like that but, imagina if the wheel as a problem and i active the guarantee (sorry for bad english xD) and the store recuse to repair it because they see that i already did a modificacion, thats my fear. A prefer to lose a 40€ controller than a 300€ wheel. I think you understand.

[@JudaZuk_]

[@emrikhjelstad6520]

Ik i’m late but does this work on Xbox series x with g920?

[@hectorkills1]

Can you wire a potentiometer to it instead of a micro switch for analog e brake

[@KrishneilGarib]

Nah if you mean so that you can have a range of pressure, you can't. Its just an on/off switch.

[@dannydib4496]

What would be the best wire and switch to use? Thanks

[@KrishneilGarib]

I think I cover this in the videos but for the actual steering wheel side I used a 2 core cable. Find one thats about 3mm to 5mm in diameter. Once that part is done, you can use either the same cable, or any speaker wire to do the handbrake side. The switch I use is a micro switch with lever. Check out all 3 videos in the series.

[@dannydib4496]

thanks mate

[@fernandoavf7]

but if you solder to a button like R3 this has only two states and you can't action 10, 20, 30 or 90% of the handbrake no?, can't you solder to another analog button like the wheel for example?

[@KrishneilGarib]

That's correct. You would need a resistive switch or rotary dial to connect to your handbrake mechanism. For my purpose and many others I was wanting the on/off action that's usually used with a hydro handbrake in drifting. Rally is a different story where you may want a percentage of activation.

[@ohhshako5278]

Will the cord be broken if you spin the wheel

[@KrishneilGarib]

Ohh Shako Not at all. This is why I mention to get a really thing gauge wire so that the rotation of the wheel won't cause it to bind.

[@nine9seven122]

Hello. I have a question. Did all the buttons worki normally after this modification? I read that shift paddles wont work when you mount it under R buttons. Is it true?

[@KrishneilGarib]

All buttons continue to work fine. You just have to ensure your wiring is nicely tucked. If the wires stop the housing from closing properly it stops buttons from working as there will be an unintended gap. So just have to make sure you take your time making sure ur not jamming/squashing wires.

[@nine9seven122]

Thanks for info!

[@HeyerSolutions]

How do you unconnected the plug that connects the motherboard the steering wheel base

[@KrishneilGarib]

Just wriggle side to side it will come out. If its tight might need to super carefully use a flat head screwdriver to help pop the ends off. The plug should have little edges where u can do this.

[@Diablo3362]

a ligação fica em paralelo ? se eu apertar o botão no volante tbm vai funcionar ?

[@KrishneilGarib]

Diablo3362 Sorry mate I only speak English so I can't read what you wrote

[@Diablo3362]

Hello, I would like to know if the connection will be in parallel, because I would like to use the button on the steering wheel and also the handbrake I hope you understand. thanks in advance

[@KrishneilGarib]

Diablo3362 Yes! the connection is parallel with the original button so you can still use the button on the wheel :)

[@anthonyerdenetuguldur2870]

I bought a handbrake that has a USB input, can I cut it into the wire of the Handbrake and solder it to the g29 steering wheel pcb board?

[@KrishneilGarib]

Without knowing more about your handbrake I can't say. If its a USB handbrake it would have a USB controller built into it meaning the wires coming out as USB are data wires, not a simple switch wire. You would need to pull it apart and find the actual switch inside that is activated and wire that to the g29..

[@kaiclarke2744]

Do u recon you can make a video wiring it up to ur hand break

[@KrishneilGarib]

+KaiTheCnt There will be one in the near future when I find time. I have a hydro handbrake that I'll be replacing my current handle with and wiring it up. Also your previous comment, I'd prefer if you used my video as a guide to try it yourself :) Unfortunately, finding time to do my own things is hard enough let alone doing it for someone else!

[@kaiclarke2744]

KRaZi.TV ok man great vid I'll sure be trying this when part 2 is up thanks heaps

[@TheNextGenRacer]

Would the selectable pins to wire into be the same on the thrustmaster tx? I will have to use a button on the d pad but they have 4 pins like your button does.

[@KrishneilGarib]

If its a tactile switch like I wired into then yeah should be the same.. if its a normal d pad, they usually work by resistance which is a different type of switch and is not easy to trace back to where it needs to be wired.

[@TheNextGenRacer]

@@KrishneilGarib it looked at sounds like a regular clickey button, so I'll go off yours and test it with a multimeter. Thank you.

[@rags4807]

What chair is that?

[@patmac2933]

I’m sorry for commenting 4 years after you made this but I’m having a problem: I did everything as shown in the video, I had no problems. And I tested the L3 button by touching the wires together before putting the wheel back on and it worked. But after mounting and screwing the wheel back on, the L3 button (which still clicks and connects both sides when activated), when clicked isn’t registered by the wheel anymore. I tested and found no shorts. It was working before but now it’s not. I’m worried that I could have been soldering it for too long, but if it was working then that could be it right?

[@KrishneilGarib]

The wired in side or the wheel L3? If its the wheel L3 i would reopen and make sure there isnt anything preventing the wheel casing from closing properly. If it is it will put a gap between the button and the pcb bpard which I had experienced. If the new connected wires aren't doing anything when touching together then maybe the wire got pinched somewhere? Very hard to help diagnose these issues without physically being there unfortunately. Hope you're able to solve it :)

[@Yukanhayt-Mhenow]

Sorry I'm later than late but It could be the internal resistance added to the button circuit, I did my circle ⭕ button but if you hold the Ebrake for too long it resets the wheel because the pedal plate & Ebrake are shorting connecting through the frame I have them mounted on.. I took apart the Ebrake switch & isolated it from the frame, problem solved.

[@KrishneilGarib]

I am not sure where the b button main connector is. It wont work from the button itself because they are resistive type buttons. You will need to look for another guide to use that button as I haven't been able to trace where it goes to. Its easier to use the button I used and remap in game.

[@peeterjullinen6236]

Why don't you put some kind of clamp on that screw next to the soldered wires,then the connection is eternal and no glue is needed👌

[@dosdeviant]

Peeter Jullinen This was my first though. Something as simple as a cable tie would clamp sufficiently. I’d dread having to remove all that glue should the mod ever need replaced.

[@KrishneilGarib]

Great idea, but I used what I had on me at the time.

[@KrishneilGarib]

Been a while since I did this, but where would the cable tie fasten against? There was limited space and the glue provides flexibility to route the wire where there was enough space for everything to close back together.

Having a slight issue.. So I wired it in turned it on and the handbrake won't work. It won't even register the r3 or L3 button I tried both. The handbrake was given to me with the wheel. A 4 core usb cable.. I joined the green and red and black and white when I soldered them in. Is that wrong?

[@KrishneilGarib]

That won't work. USB handbrakes require the data to be decoded. Tapping into the steering wheel buttons requires a normal switch with 2 prongs. If you read across the comments people have asked previously if a USB handbrake will work and the answer is always No. You have to wire in a switch manually.

[@KrishneilGarib]

Nick Bates I used automotive 2 core wire from Jaycar. I think it's roughly 18gauge or smaller. It really doesnt matter what gauge you use in this application because it does not need to carry much current. Just make sure the total thickness is about 3mm so it fits through the centre of the wheel. The paddle shifter buttons are contact switches you can probably see in the video. They also have easy to tap into feet ao its basically the same process as what I did but to the larger contact switch. Won't really be any point for me personally to openit up just to wire it into those buttons right next to the ones I used.. also for the paddels as you would lose the gear shifting ability that some games use (Like Gran Turismo for paddle shift only cars). Hope that helps.

Nick Bates Oh and with the handbrake, there are tonnes of Hydro handbrakes on ebay. Thats what I'll be installing in the next video. You will need to put a switch on the handbrake but I will go through that when I get a chance to record.

KRaZi.TV thanks man that was extremely helpful this will be my first time modding but I think you misunderstood where I meant when I said plus and minus buttons I mean the ones to the right of the L3 button

[@KrishneilGarib]

Oh Sorry I did misunderstand... yes you can tap into the plus and minus buttons just like I have for the R3. They are also tactile switches. Have a look at the following pics.. this is the back of the board where you will solder into... red circles the plus minus buttons and blue is where the r3 is that I used in the video... Back: drive.google.com/open?id=0B_zPeLuEEQNHNktnVC0yTENoZFk . here is the front side of the pcb for reference too: drive.google.com/open?id=0B_zPeLuEEQNHaHBDUjB2Vk1WdXM . Hope that helps!

KRaZi.TV thanks man your awesome I'm about to watch more of your videos I'll keep an eye out for that video for converting a hydrolic shifter

[@senorscrub9162]

Anyone know anyway to buy one or even pair for ps5

[@affe3292]

3:07 just for me to remember

[@rexinators9819]

would this work with a pc handbrake?

[@KrishneilGarib]

Not an easy task unfortunately and would likely break the ability to be used as a usb pc handbrake.

[@shameonyoubro1]

What if I just pull apart my ps4 controller and go from there

[@KrishneilGarib]

Mono Chan I haven't tried myself if both controller and wheel can function in all games at the same time so you might have to do some testing before you take that approach :)

[@lukedoherty9103]

I tried to wire a handbrake and the game always thinks it’s on? Any help?

[@KrishneilGarib]

Check the solder joint hasn't connected 2 of the button prongs causing it to always be on. You just have to check over your work by opening it up again.

[@lukedoherty9103]

@@KrishneilGarib nothing is touching. My handbrake has four wires

[@KrishneilGarib]

Sounds like a USB handbrake? In that case it wont work. You need a simple handbrake with a 2 wire switch like in my videos.

[@lukedoherty9103]

@@KrishneilGarib so there is no way to get it to work?

[@KrishneilGarib]

Not with a USB handbrake. USB accepts digital data, so the handbrake has a board on it somewhere that translates the signal to work with a PC. Only way to use it is to open up your usb handbrake, run new 2 core wire from the handbrakes inbuilt switch and wire it again to the logitech.

[@MM-tt3np]

do you need to solder at the wheel and use cable? can't this be done paralel? I might be wrong, but it was just a thought :)

[@KrishneilGarib]

Yes the wheel pcb produces the correct command for it to be recognised by a PS4.

[@blakefisher7205]

I tried it with a USB cable and fucked everything up my dad's pissed and it's broken

@@KrishneilGarib I bought the obdokidly handbrake for my series X last week works for pc playstation and Xbox plug and play 👍

[@KrishneilGarib]

@@DEENRC yeah? Got a link to it? I tried Googling that name and didn't find anything. As far as I know there currently were no usb handbrakes that worked for the ps5. Xbox and PC yes, but PlayStation so far didn't.
