First, make sure everything is plugged in correctly. Make sure both recevier and transmitter are on the same channel. Make sure the receiver has an "F" sticker on it, not a J. A "J" means it's the JR/Airtronics version, and won't work with your Hitec transmitter.

Beyond that, the only other thing you can do is start switching things out, one at a time, to see which piece is faulty. It might be a bad transmitter, receiver, servo, or ESC.
