Axial AE-1 ESC flashes

[JMan689]

Took my AX10 to a friends house couple months back and killed the servo. Replaced the servo and noticed my ESC flashes whenever I turn the truck on and nothing else happens. Tried moving around wires (including the antenna) and nothing helped. Tried different batteries, still nothing. Is my ESC dead?

Youre probably not receiving signal. The ax-1 flashes until it "programs" (setting the zero of your throttle) and then lets you use it. Id check your crystals and if you can use an alternate receiver and transmitter to test and confirm if its the rx/tx or the esc

I'll try this, thank you.

Plugged the esc and servo into a Traxxas rx/tx and everything worked fine. So it looks like its time to buy a new rx/tx
