Internal Mini-DIN 6-Pin Connector Cable
Ghosting is caused by intermittent signal loss at the 6-pin DIN interface due to mechanical vibration. When the internal mounting hardware or the cable itself becomes stressed by Force Feedback oscillation, the pins lose consistent contact with the base. Replacing the internal cable or re-seating the connector with fresh fasteners eliminates the electrical noise interpreted as 'ghost' presses.

Quick Release Locking Ring
The plastic quick-release collar is responsible for maintaining axial tension between the rim and the motor shaft. If the threads are slightly stretched or the locking screw is not engaged, the rim can shift during high-torque maneuvers. This shift causes the electrical pins to momentarily disconnect, triggering spurious input signals in the wheel's logic board.
