|  Bad servo cause Glitches??????
So I took my scx10 through some mud and now seems to have a glitch prob. My lights n such were working when I got it home but now the taillights stopped workin. no mud or water got on the circuit board for them. The Reciever is in a sealed box along with the esc. However it had the stock steering servo. So would a shorted steering servo cause it to lurch forward or act lame? Thank you for helping |

Yep a bad servo will make the receiver appear glitchy. I'm not sure why it does, but makes all other functions twitch and stutter.

Yes, a bad servo could cause glitches. 1-Water inside the servo could be causing shorts 2-Jammed up servo could be overloading the ESC BEC |

Had that happen twice, once due ot water and once just beacue the stock servo gave up. the servo drew too much power and made everything else act strange.
