i just bought a used tmaxx and i put new batteries in the radio and in the reciever but when i hit the switch the truck does nothing. it doesn't twitch or anything, I'm not sure what to do next cause I'm new to this.

can anyone help me thank you....
 
Have you gone through the electrical system and checked all connections yet? If not, take the receiver box off and make sure everything is plugged in properly, then try turning it on again.
 
i did that everything was plugged in
 
Do you have any other RC parts? Like an actual receiver pack or a 4aa battery holder that isn't on the truck?

May just be a bad switch, but it's hard to test without one of the above.

Are you turning on the transmitter as well? Does the red light on the transmitter light up bright? Is the crystal in the transmitter and the receiver? Are they tagged with the same color tab?
 
how do i test the switch and the radio works the light comes on the crystals are in and they both are yellow
 
Like I said, it's hard to do without a separate receiver pack with a plug on it. You would need a voltage meter.
