freaken weird. This one needs help
 
I did many searches but found nothing that would help.

I had my car all set up to work. It is a rsx with stage 2 top speed motor, awd, suspension kit.
I turned on my rsx and drove it forward. It drove about 3 feet than it cut out. Now it won't drive forward. It will drive backwards though. I fixed the antenna the day before and tested it. It worked fine. does anyone have a solution?

I'f that's all he did (install the stuff), and I'm running the same thing, he can't have fried it. try switching the batteries.

i have a similar problem but mine wont go in reverse. reading around on other forums that it is a blown fet that cause it . their is no one fet for forward oor reverse they both work together

kasper01001 12-04-2004 12:43 AM

does it stutter when it moves forward or not move forward at all?

Canadian5_man 12-04-2004 11:12 AM

it doesn't move forward at all, but it moves backwards perfectly.
My batteries were fully charged and it didn't work.
does anyone know where i can get a fet that will fix the problem?

your best bet is to upgrade to 4562's they have them in the parts shop here

Canadian5_man 12-04-2004 08:15 PM

ok il do it and see what happens. Hopefully it will work and i won't have to buy another xmod. (student loan is getting low)

kasper01001 12-05-2004 10:09 AM

4562?

btw, which kind do you have?

Canadian5_man 12-06-2004 10:10 AM

i have the stock ones

I took apart my car and i found that the fets weren't fried. I played around with them to try to take them off. I pretty much did nothing and left them on. I tried accelerating forward and it worked. than about 3 or 4 seconds later the engine slowed down and then it sped up, 1 second leter it cut out. The engine still runs in reverse. Once in a while if I try to go forward it will but then it cuts out again. Could this have happened if I tried changing the car's antenna? If I can't fix it then I'm going to pay a visit to atomic mod website.

DON'T BUY THE RECEIVER BOARD FROM HIM! You can buy it from RS for 10 bucks, and it comes with a new receiver board and ESC.

Yes you can. Simply go to radioshack.com, and get their US 1-800 number, and have them ship it to Canada.
