    The LED RPM indicators on my G27 were working up until a few updates ago, when they broke. There has been no official mention on if they are supposed to be working or not. I just want to know if its known, or if something is wrong on my end.

    LEDS have been disabled.
    They are quite problematic and cause a lot of issues apparently.
    No ETA on when a fix for them will happen, there are many other things with much more priority.

    Just a question, not pushing at all.
    How do the RPM indicators cause problems?
    Like are they buggy and really particular or do they take up runtime speed needed to run the game itself or something like that?

    Completely forgot that it had LEDS till now! It's a gimmick that we don't need, could be useful in F1 racing but that's about it

    For a very few of you, enabling LEDs will make the steering wheel act weird: pull strongly to a side, generate asymmetric forces, randomly reset the steering lock from 900º to 270º, etc.
    Long story short, the bug is extremely difficult to replicate, and also to debug... you wouldn't believe the amount of time we have already spent, testing theories and possible bugfixes, to the detriment of other more pressing bugs and features, all without success so far. We may revisit the problem in the future, but in the short term we cannot afford to.

    Good idea, done :) Will be disabled by default, of course.
