Servo Problems

[por2ugee17]

Well i had a hitec- high torque servo in my maxx but one of the 3 wires ripped and is exposed somewhat. The servos went crazy...wouldnt stop glitching....so i replaced both of them and the 2 new servos work fine. But i kinda liked the high torque servo....anyhting i can do to fix the ripped wire ??? i tried electric tape....but didnt help much...any help ?

you could send it to hitec to be repaired... i have found that they are quite helpful in cases like this.

u take the case off the servo unsoldier the wire and put a new one on

If the cut in the insulation is more than about 1/2 " from the case or connector, you can cut the leads, remove the damaged section of wire then solder and heat shrink everything back together.

actually, if u put nail polish on it, it should insuilate it, and not break off easily

That is a good idea to repair the cut insulation, but it will not repair the possibly damaged wire inside.

o..... did u try taking off the wire tube, and checking it out?
