Hey plastizapca

I've got a t4 that's doing the exact same thing, how did you trouble shoot it to get to your conclusion? I haven't trouble shooted bad esc before but I might just toss mine out if I can't figure it out. Mine came in a lot anyways like yours so I wouldn't be too hurt if I had to toss it.

I was just lucky! The communication cable was gummed up with servo tape and the insulation showed stress in quite a few places. The original owner probably just jerked it out of the old car which caused the wires to break inside the insulation. I didn't have an ohm meter at the time to test out my theory so I just went for it. In my case it was the correct course of action. I would try checking all the connections for continuity. Anything other than that is beyond my electrical skills.

Great job. Looks like a composite craft rear bumper?
