atom3624 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Did any 'event' happen that may have caused this? Crash? Hit a kerb? Fell off a shelf? etc Is the servo making any noises? Are there any unusual 'burning' smells? Are you certain the plug is still fully inserted into the Rx (receiver) - might have come out / been pulled out? Just a few questions / options? Al.

sean-vrs Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 sounds it mate, if its stripped and locked up its time for a new one. just check the wires are all intact and that your showing it power and its receiving signal from your RX. its not good practice to manually move the servo arm/saver so try avoiding this aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin81 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 No it didn't have no damage was just driving round car park turned then went down straight then turned and just went it makes a noise and tries to move the steering arm but just bout a 1mm there is nothing blocking the steering section of the rc.i disconnected it from the car and pluged it in on its own and it's still not moving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean-vrs Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Pop the servo on a different channel on your RX this will diagnose the fault for you mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
