Only shifts to 3rd and 4th... cracked it open to see what the problem was, and one of the wires from the potentiometer split :(

Does a G27/TH8RS combo work for Gran Turismo 6? I know it'll work for my PC games, but I hope it works for that.

You can resolder that wire easily. I don't think a G27 with a Thrustmaster shifter will work.

Strip the wire insulation back and solder it back or just tape them together. It's not the end of the world :)

I find it odd that my G25's shifter is like new, after 6 years of use.

For a second I was like, "Huh? Infiniti didn't make a G27..."

It's an easy fix, I had the same issue on my G25 and I ended up soldering the wire directly to the switch and it works just fine. Though getting the proper crimp would be a better solution.

aye the same thing happened to my pedals with the wires breaking

the wires for the gas and brake snapped ( how i have no idea) and i tried soldering them back together but they're just too damn tiny to do anything with so i ended up getting a set of fanatec CSR elite pedals

You did good! Lucky me, mine still works. But I'm going full Fanatec when it wont work anymore.

Mine broke earlier today too. Whenever I try to shift from 5-6 it goes into reverse and no I am not pushing down on it.
