Well, are you sure it is plugged in right? Are you running a BEC? Have you tried it in any other channel?

EPA is a RADIO setting and not a Servo Setting.

You're not giving us a whole lot to go on here guy. How about what radio, esc, battery etc. Are you using a bec?

There is nothing to do to the servo to make it work. It either works or not. Do you have epa adjustments on your radio?

As far as sound, that is normal. That is the servo constantly centering itself. The 7955TG is not as loud as the 5955TG it replaced. This servo is also a 90 degree servo, not 120 or 180 like some.

Thats a little better. What are you steering EPA's set at? Are you running a BEC? Is everything else working?

Go to the EPA's on the radio. Then go to the steering. Hold the steering to the left, then run the EPA all the way up to 100. Then turn the steering to the right and do the same. Let us know if that helps.

Your EPA's should be at 100%, or more if you have modified steering.

Trims should be at or near zero.

Make sure the steering servo is plugged into Channel 1 and the wires are in the correct order, i.e. don't plug the servo in backwards.

Then let us know.
