using Rx bypass now no power to servo

[spdyracer]

i have a super clod that i wanted to increase the power of the rear steer so i got a cc bec and a holmes hobbies rx bypass plug. after plugging everything in now the servo has no power. i have checked how everything is plugged up and its right. any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Got a picture of the setup?

I can try to post some up. I have the red and black wire from the bec connected to the red and black on the rx. On the rx adapter side I have the servo plugged into the side that has the white red and black and the bec into the side that has the red and black wire. The bec light is on but have no power to the servo. I have tried switching the servo and bec wires but still no power.

Try not using the rx bypass and see if the servo works then the bypass is most likely faulty.

yeah i have had the servo plugged in and working in the past just wanted to get more power to it. don't know if this helps but here is a picture of the plug showing the servo plug.


kind of hard to see but this is the bec plugged into the side with the red and black wire


also one of the truck

Hummm....that looks wired up correctly to me.

So it will work if you just plug the servo directly into the receiver?

I just plugged the servo back into the rx just to check it again and it works fine. Plugged the bec with adapter and nothing.

Then I would say that something is wrong with that adapter.

[spdyracer]

Not sure about the plug. It's brand new and after looking it over it looks fine.

I just checked the bec with a volt meter and I'm getting 6 volts out of it. Ill take a picture of the adapter itself to see if anyone knows if its word right.

Tried to take a picture but its just too small. Here is how its wired there's a black jumper between plugs wi a black wire coming out to the rx plug. There is a red jumper in the middle from plug to plug and then on the last side there is one white wire coming out by itself. Hope all that makes since. Would really like to get this figured out

[spdyracer]

Well just got it figured out the black jumper wire on the plug has a short. Guess ill try to fix it but if not ill get a hold of John at Holmes hobbies for a replacement
