Couple week old scx10 rubicon esc flashing. Help

[chattinfarms]

Everything on this has been waterproofed. Was in very slight water in the very beginning but have had no issues til now. Was pulling c hubs off cause one is busted and wanted to make sure my servo was set in the middle and hooked up a battery and the red and green light flash repeatedly and beep. Red light keeps flashing and green light has slightly different pulse. Everything worked fine this afternoon and now bam it won't do anything. I tried resetting for forward and reverse and such but it won't recognize anything. Motor will not turn not will servo. If I unhook my a lead from my motor it will quit beeping but the lights still flash. Any help would be great. Thanks

did you check that the receiver works ?

This sucks. My sons stock Axial radio died at the beginning of an RC outing - worst timing ever. Try a second radio if possible to make sure this is not the issue.

How was the ESC waterproofed?

Sounds like your receiver got fried. I know a lot of ESCs beep and flash lights when they have no signal from the receiver.

I have a trans and reciever from a old redcat I bought at one time ill try. I have it in a soap traveling case that was sealed with silicone and both were in balloons. Is there a warranty for that stuff or are electronics out of the question. Son drove it for about 20 mins that morning and the c hub broke so we but it up and it was fine so I out of guesses

As long as you did not modify or coat the ESC itself or the RX they should still be under warranty. Once you isolate the issue to one component or the other call or email Axial. Be prepared to provide a copy of your invoice.
