this happened to me once.

open the pcb cover
slowly pull the pcb up trying not 2 break any wires.
check 4 broken wires
check and see if the battery is in perfectly

Yeah, you probably popped out your battery.

yep, most likely a shaken battery.

just kinda mess with stuff, not really changing anything, but poking around, move stuff.... usually it helps

do you have steering but no motor power? if so, the lower motor contact may not be bent up enough or is just moved a little. if you have another car, try switching the batt. also, make sure the motor is making full contact. once you find the problem you'll probably laugh.

hmmm..wonder if i need to solder these wires back where they belong...(the blue one came off the motor mount)..thnx guys

thats probably it, without that wire on the car is of absolutely no use except looking pretty
