Default Axial AE-3 troubleshooting

I need a little help with some issues that began recently. I’m losing power to my TX, at intermittent times. I disconnected the BEC and the problem persisted with the ESC powering the TX. Each time it occurs, I can unplug the battery and reconnect, getting the rig to run for a few more minutes. The ESC is not overheating and the LVC has not kicked in. I’ve tried multiple batteries and still have the same problem. I've wiggled wires when it happens and I’m unable to get the TX to come back on. At one point, the whole rig went into autopilot, and began driving without any input from the TX.

Current electronics:

Tekin FXR
Stock Axial AE3 TX/RX
eBay BEC
3s lipo

Have u tryed rebinding the rx/tx? Ive never run the stock axial radio system, but usually wen a rig starts that, rebinding tends to help. If it doesnt, it may be time to either get a new rx or upgrade to a new, better radio system altogether

I haven’t, but I’ll give it a try. It just started out of the blue, after I finished my new build.

Seems to me we've had a bunch of "weird" gremlins that have turned out to be related to a servo issue. Try unplugging the servo and see what happens. Maybe won't solve the issue but at least the servo would be eliminated. You never know . . . . . . . . . . .
