Other than that double check all the wiring and make sure nothing came loose. Make sure the batteries in the radio are good, as well as the battery pack. Try plugging the esc into another slot on the receiver like the steering slot to see if it works. Of course if you've got lights on your esc, and your battery pack is charged and those lights still don't come on, it's a good indication that the esc somehow got fried.

More info might be helpful like Greatscott said.

Yes I pulled it apart already to check all the wiring, pluges it in the the reciever in all the diffrent plugs, the led doesnt even come on, sounds like it fried, Ive only had it for maybe a month and i just did expect this from futaba but now I know just not to buy there stuff, even when I called the tech line the people just seemed like they did not even want to talk to me.
