The motor is one of the most important parts in the RC car as it turns the car's wheels. If your car's wheels are not turning, you can follow these steps to replace the motor.

Note: This guide will involve soldering. For information on how to solder, please visit iFixit's Soldering Skills page.

    • Flip the car over again to its upright position and vertically lift the shell from the car.

    • During re-assembly, make sure the shell is correctly aligned. If it is not aligned correctly, it may rub on the wheels, possibly preventing them from turning.

    • Using a small plastic opening tool, gently pry the clips to release the tabs on the circuit board casing. The clips can be located above where the rear wheels used to be.

    • Lift the clips just enough to release them from the tabs. If they are pried too far, they may snap off.

    • There is a clear gear grease inside the enclosure.

    • Lift the circuit board casing from the enclosure to reveal the motors, gears, and circuit board.

    • During re-assembly, make sure the wires are not pinched between plastic dividers in the enclosure as this may damage them.
