my xmod refuses to work and its brand new the battries and everything is perfect but the car just doesnt move or make any noise please help please please
@Konagawa i wish i can buy 1 but they only sell starter set xmod.. no parts. but i do this to save money and i dont have my own credit card yet to buy a 4x4 set. does 4x4 set have have set of gears right?
I have the same problem with a bigger RC car, open up its gear box, and you will probably find a gear that has 1 or more teeth missing, too much torque from the motor for the plastic gears.
ive never had trouble with my xmods but my guess is that the gear from the motor isnt hooking up with the gear that truns the wheels and some how you need to ajust them. Hope this helps.
i have this happen to me all the time. the pinion gear is slipping. tighten down ur motor mount or use the right spacer for the motor pinion gear you are running.
i have this happen to me all the time. the pinion gear is slipping. tighten down ur motor mount or use the right spacer for the motor pinion gear you are running.
I had the same problem once. Its either the gear mounted to the engine is worn down or the engine is just not screwed in tight enough. You don't have to take apart the whole back of the car. To check if the gear is worn down just unscrew the two screws that hold in the engine and take it out. Hope this is helpful
solution:i did was tighten the gear to each other.
to do that disassemble the back of the car.
then in the gear has a nail thing in both sides
in the biggest circle in the nail will hold them together and the small circle in the nail will disassemble the gear(to check if your smaller gear is broken inside)(be carefull its very small)
use finger board tool(fits exactly the same) to remove or tighten them together
@kldrtr the brushs in the motors are worn out. or the teeth in the gears are chippped. Have u used it outside? and how old is it? ive owned x mods before and there junk. go on traxxas.com or losi.com they have good cars.
@wessywess6 it just looks like the gears are slipping or broken buy some new gears that fit or get one from an old rc that u dont want its not that big of a problem :)
Had it happen to me, tighten the screws holding your motor down and for pete sakes when you hear you gears grinding like that, don't gun it. You might have stripped them out now and tighting for a better gear mesh won't help you.
take the whole back apart do a vid of it and i can tell u the hour u upload it and i can tell u exactly how to fix i ive had a cupple of probs with mine 2
it sounds like your gears arent meshing right. make sure your gears pinion and drive gears are a matxch or check all the wheels and axels without the motor in it at all
if you havent fixed it yet i had the same problem just slide a little peice of plastic under the motor and then the gears will be together its the motor not reaching the gear
ur motor is not in all the way maybe taking the motor out and adjust it, then to see if it work u might want to use it while the motor protector is still off then finally put the motor protector back on it should work.
first loosen the gear cover that coves the gears (DUH) if that doesnt work remove the piece that covers the brain on the chassi then screw the moster to the silver plates where it usually goes and remember to get positive to positive and negitev to negetive. it happened to me
motor mount isnt tighten down, and its grinding the gears or thats what it sounds like. if its not that then it might be a bad diff. try taking it apart and have a little fun with it. if all else fails, try ebay!
Try to spin 1 of ur wheels at the back and if the other wheel didn't turn at the opposite direction, you might have a Differential problem, but if not it's the motor spacer, change it to the right measurement..
No it is the gears. You can even hear the motor spinning. Why would you think it is the bearings/bushings? That makes no sense, and the radio shack bearings aren't that great.
none of the previews are right i had the same problem with my tc its the rear section were your limited slip diff is kept just tighten up the screws or it could be broken very hard to find and replace good luck
ok i had the same problem disconect the batteries, the motor and the controler, antenna on both replace all with new batteries and if that dosent work buy a new motor
ok first try to put some grease on the gears and let me know if that works i had the same problem and when i put grease on it worked let me know thanks larry.
