LosiKid talks abut the fix in the GT3C thread. The wires on the power button get pinched and end up breaking. Just pull the wheel off and resolder the wires and you're good.

They did a design change apparently because they realized it was an issue.

+1.....That is the only issue I have heard of thus far. I believe you just nip off a few plastic "tits" that rip the wires up.

yea, there are little plastic pieces that are supposed to be wire guides but they are actually snag the wire and rip the wires off the power switch. Just pull apart the st wheel, resolder the power switch wires and cut off the little plastic guides
