Power issue with Mercedes AMG C1403_1

[SteveBG]

I have the World GT set and have been playing it for a month or so. The Mercedes AMG is experiencing problems. 
Power is not getting through to the car consistently; no matter how the controller is used, it's either all or nothing, mainly nothing. I've changed the braids twice but no difference. I have tried both lanes, same issue. The Ford GT GTE works fine. 

Not sure what to do next here, all suggestions welcome!

Thanks

Steve

The usual problem area for scaly cars is at the 2 piece guide.

Does not matter how many times you change braids if assembly is done incorrectly.

Slide on back first, push forward over front, and the push back.

They come loose from accidents and pulling car backwards.

Then correctly adjust braids ( should have been info in set box and there is help/advice at top of this site)

 

If that does not work, take body off and see if the 2 lead wires are still connected to guide.

If broken from turning frequently , solder them back on.
