Try a reprogram: turn on the ESC and keep holding the button untill the light flashes once. Then your good to go.

I have the same exact vehicle with the same problem. I did a re-program and it worked. BTW, I am selling mine so if you know of anyone that wants the same setup let me know. Thanks, Good luck.
