recharge the battery and make sure the frequency on the remote and the truck are the same

or just let it sit for a while and see if it starts working again

Got mine into some DEEP water a couple of weeks ago....way into the battery compartment. Started doing some weird stuff...it's tires were spinning full blast and they were turned to the right and the remote had no affect on it. I just took the battery out, dried off the entire thing with a towel and a hairdryer and let it set for a day...worked fine after that.
