Fanatec CSL Elite wheel paddle shifter fix

Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago

The paddle shifters on my Fanatec wheel are pretty much dead, and since it's out of warranty, I had to fix it somehow.
Fixing the electronics board is not an option for me (lack of skill), so instead of that, I designed a simple mount for two microswitches.
Type of microswitch: SS-5GL-3, with a lever.
Solder it to the normally close pin, because when you pull the shifter, it will release the microswitch,
You will also need some M2,5, M3 and M4 screws, nuts, to assemble.
For the cable you will need this type of connectors:https://www.hestore.hu/prod_10029570.htmlhttps://www.hestore.hu/prod_10029569.html
If you know the proper name for these, please let me know, here it's under the category of microphone connector.
Electronics wise use whatever you like, easy way is one from Leo Bodnar, or you can use an arduino for that.
