Yes three wires are right tried to bind controller to receiver but still only have steering I even tried to program the throttle and the red flashes don't even come up to do that

Check your throttle trim first.. . Easy to knock out of whack

You get it going???
With anything electrical like that i usually pull out all the plugs... Motor, servo, fan etc.. give them a blow out and put it back together just to be sure its not a simple bit of dirt in somewhere?
Hopefully its an easy fix and not a buggered esc... Did you buy online or at a shop?

Have you done a reset on the esc??

What colour light comes on? Or is there no light?

What colour light comes on? Or is there no light?

It flashes green once and then goes black when you turn truck on . when you try to set up throttle it blinks one red light and that's it

When I Tried to bind reciever to transmitter it would not flash like it was suppose to when you push the link button.

Sounding like the esc is dead...
Try reseting the esc with the motor unplugged?
I assume the motor is still working?
Youd have to plug it in another car or connect it straight to a battery to see if it is tho
