I have a Rustler vxl and the same thing happened to me. Have you tried re-programming the controller to the car. look in your manual and you should see that the throttle must be programed for full extension for the brake and full compression for the "give it the gas". it has to do with the speed controller on how to get it set right.

Traxxas rustler I forgot to mark the channels for the receiver and now its not working and don't now what goes where it is a tq 2.4ghz and has 4 channels

simple process of elimination, start with the steering servo,plug it into one of the sockets and test the steering. if it does not work, move it to the next socket. not too sure why you have a 4 channel radio tho, you only need 2.

I would imagine it might have something to do with water turbulance? Do you have a sensor thats located at the bottom of the boat somewhere? In my grandpas boat, the sensor is at the rear bottom near the hole where you can drain the water, if your going very fast it doesnt work very well, slow or stopped and it works fine. If you have that type of sensor make sure whatever holds it is tight so the sensor cant move around.

either that or you got some funky wiring issue lol

My truck will start but not move.

Since it is only a year old, I would get the dealer involved.
If you have work done by a garage you could void the factory warranty.

Xbox 360 The Godfather game was working fine most of game. All of a suddon the Y button wont work to get in cars or to save game but will still open doors and the right analogue stick wont work in fight...

I would recommend completely shutting down the console, unplugging all cords from it, then letting it sit for a minuet or two, then restarting it. if that doesn't work, go into the game's settings menu and make sure that the controls are set to default.

Stoped working

The most common reason for this is that you have a bad capacitor. If the capacitor is bad, and not sending enough "juice" to the compressor, then it will "click" off on overload. Capacitors can be checked using a multi-meter, set to check mFd (microfarads)

My Traxxas Rustler stopped going forwards and backwards as well. The steering does go left and right. When I rev the throttle, the motor revs like it's supposed to but the rear wheels do not move. Per...

The ESC (electronic speed control) is what the battery and motor are connected to. It gets the signal from the receiver and controls the power to the motor. If the motor revs I would check: 1) Make sure set screw is tight on pinion gear on motor. 2) Check gear mesh between pinion and spur gears. 3) Check slipper clutch to make sure it is not too loose, it should only slip for about 12-18 inches when you pull full throttle from a stop. I hope this helps, I will try to answer any questions that I can.

Just tried to run a new Rustler VXL in the snow. Steering works, but not forward or reverse. Any ideas?

If the motor is not trying to move at all check to make sure that the motor is connected to the speed control and the speed control is connected to the receiver. If you can hear the motor run, check the pinion gear on the motor to make sure it is tight, and check the slipper clutch to make sure it has not backed off.
