New Bright Jeep wheels don't turn
Hello. I was given a 1:8 scale New Bright Jeep Rubicon for my birthday. I drove it all around a parking lot that day and everything worked fine. The next day when I went to show someone my cool toy, the tires no longer turned right/left. I charged the battery to see if that was the problem. Nope.
I've researched all over as to how to possibly fix this problem, but can't find anything. Hoping someone can tell me if it's something I can fix myself or if I need to find a hobby shop of some kind that will fix it for me.
(As it was a gift, I do not have the receipt or box to return it. And I don't want to tell my friend that it's broken already. )

there is no repair for those new brights, the best thing is to buy another one for parts. a lot of their parts interchange.

offroadin .. Welcome to the forum ..
It seems that your problem is the servo direction ..
Check if the power goes to the servo.
Also check the servo motor ..
Maybe your controller is faulty ..[]

RE: New Bright Jeep wheels don't turn
Thank you texx, I will have to get the servo checked out and report back.
I would buy another one, but I have looked all over this valley and no one sells them in that size. I have no idea where my friend picked this one up at.
