OK... gunna slap you around a little bit, but you'll thank me later...

Engine: T-Maxx = Yes; E-Maxx = No (it has motors)

1st: What electronics are you running (TX/RX/ESC/Batteries)?
- I am assuming stock
- The batteries: have they been used lately, or were they store with the E-Maxx?

2nd: What charger are you using?

3rd: What EXACTLY is happening?
- Are you getting no power at all to the truck
- Do you have steering and no motors response?
- Are the motors running, but they are very weak?

4th:
- have you checked all of the electrical connections to make sure they are tight?

5th:
- What charger are you running?

6th:
- What are the condition of the transmitter batteries?

What I suspect is the truck and batteries have been sitting for a long time and the batteries are no longer holding a charge. In that case you can try connecting them up to a good charger and cycling the batteries to try to wake them up, but I suspect they are likey dead...
