Although more of a generic question than a jet one..................

Whilst setting up my latest jet, the nosewheel steering servo failed. It was not mega expensive (a JR579) but I am now wondering what to do with it. I feel a little peeved about throwing it away, however, I cannot guarantee that it hadn't stalled during setup. Even if it had though, it certainly didn't last long. I am now left in the position where I don't know if I caused the damage or if it was faulty.

This is not the first time I have had a newish servo die on me. The last one was Futaba and on my Kangaroo airbrake. That servo was imported so I just chucked it in the bin.

What would you do in my position?
