No Breaks
how come my NT got no breaks[:@]
is the break disk supposed to be turnning when the cars running cause its not
and also that litlle bar that presses on the pads that stops the break disc doesent move ( or at least i dont think its moving)
the guy at the LHS said the servo wasent strong enogh or a nothere problem could be that i would halft to get a rechargible pack instead of 4 AA to run all the servos, like theres not enogh amp's or something
whats going on here?[:-]

RE: No Breaks
Wish I was young again.
The brake rotor only turns if the truck is rolling, not setting idleing. If it is not turning at all then there are three possibilities.
The brake rotor center section is worn out so its slipping on the hub.
The brake hub is worn so bad that it can't drive the rotor.
The drive pin that the brake hub slides over is missing or broken.
If this is a new vehicle I bet its none of the above and its just the radio needing adjustment. If you push forward on the brake lever (the one going across the top of the transmission hooking to the long rod off the servo) does this apply the brakes? If so, its just an adjustment.
