Fault Diagnosis - Motor Wont Run - Help

Recommended Posts

Got a problem with my RS500, its been in my loft for quite sometime and although its been out the loft and cleaned Ive only got round to testing it.....

For some reason I cant get the motor to run, but its not the motor as Ive hooked it up to a battery and its fine. The speed servo moves freely and seems to be making contact but just no joy in getting the motor to turn.

So if the motor is fine and the servo moves freely what else is there inbetween?

I cant seem to see any broken wires, the car was running fine before it went into storage.

Any help is greatly accepted :)

If your using a mechanical speed controller, make sure the contacts on the switch plate are good and clean from corrosion. You could always use a multimeter to check out voltage and resistance across the speed controller aswell.

Hope this helps!

James.
