    After a 90 minute training and qualify, my 3motion stopped working after 6 laps in the race. A restart from simtools solved the problem but this is strange because it never happend before.

    Did someone have similar issues and know what to do? Or was this just bad luck and hopefully will never happen again.

    Thanks in advance ... Tobi

    There is not really enough information to know for sure, you may have tripped a PSU, had a USB hiccup, had some other system interference or something else, you are going to have to dig a bit deeper, experiment a bit and test.

    You have not even detailed your sim brand or hardware.

    I know that there is not much information, perhaps this will help a littel bit. Hopefully it was only a hiccup and will never happen again :) . The simulator is new, ca. 10 hours without any problems like this. Also the supplier told me that this issue is completly new for them.

    Hardware:
    - 3motion by track-time
    - DD Lenze 20Nm
    - HE Pro
    - Manufactory M-F SSH14
    - Rift CV1
    - Simvibe (4 x Sinustec BS250, Fame audio QUAD-4150 4-Ch amplifier)

    Short update: Problem was a broken USB Port. No issues anymore since I fixed this :)
