Hi, I'm probably being incredibly ignorant here (please feel free to point this out) but how do I connect the ActLabs RS Shifter to a Force RS wheel? There's no power connector on the Shifter engine module. Thanks.

The power connector goes into the Force RS engine as normal. Hope this helps.

Plug the Shifter cartridge into the wheel, then plug the regular cartridge into that. The Shifter plugs into it's cartridge. -- Slot Tweaks & Reviews www.slottweak.com "Tim Harrison" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:CNYP5.14820$[email hidden]... > Hi, > > I'm probably being incredibly ignorant here (please feel free to point this > out) but how do I connect the ActLabs RS Shifter to a Force RS wheel? > There's no power connector on the Shifter engine module.

Mmmmmm...trouble is there are no "slots" on the Shifter engine. There are two what look like PS/2 sockets on the side on it but nothing on the RS Force engine will plug into them. Phil Lee <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:WXZP5.9901$[email hidden]...

That doesn't sound like my Shifter engine. It may be a Playstation cartridge. I think you need to speak to Act Labs. Go to their web site at http://www.act-labs.com and they will sort you out. Cheers Phil "Tim Harrison" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:tfgQ5.893$[email hidden]...
