hi sounds like a wire off the small board you will need to take the top off and see if one of the wires has come off :thumbup:

Hi if you look at the bottom of your tank you will see one screw at the front and two at the back
then if you dont want to take off your fornt sprockets and tracks try a screw driver up the back of the road wheels there are two screws at the sides front and half way down take them out then the two hoses on the back 4 small screws take out pull the hoses off and the top will come off lift it gentley so you dont pull the wires and then check inside the tank is asmall square board with six wires on check that if one is off thats the problem hope this helps dave

its not too bad. rx18 would be better, but it's what it is. how are you at soldering? there is less soldering with an rx18. i have got some old tx14 boards. if you pm me your address, will stick a couple of the 14s in the post (snail mail) for you and you can give them a go. cheers dave
