I got everything ready to go, or so I thought. I just painted the new body and plugged everything in, and I've got no steering.
A few weeks before I took it apart, I had the same issue. I thought I burnt out the servo, but decided to test it after I had the other one installed.
It was fine. The only thing that's changed is I put an iq link in my transmitter.
My real problem is that I tried rebinding and reseting it and now the link button and esc button both flash pretty quick now.

Take the TQ link out and try it again. It' pretty easy to bend one of the pins that goes into the TQ link when installing it. First rule of troubleshooting, always undo what you just did.

I'll try that now. I let it do a firmware update and it worked long enough for my to test it, button it up and walk outside. By then no steering. But I took a couple pictures. Super poser pictures, cause I have very little time and am super pumped on it.

So I took the body off last night to mess with it, and figured out that if the head lights are unplugged the steering works fine. I don't quite get it. The light bar is still plugged in and is fine, with the headlights and light bar on, no steering. Could these lights be overloading something?

you need to reverse the polarity of the connector in your lights.

if you're plugging it into a servo make sure you're not doing it backward.

I just happen to be in the garage, I'll give it a shot once I get this tire put together.
