Wow thanks that did make sense but ya I've tried switching the 2 and when I do move throttle stick wheels turn but no throttle when I turn the wheel. So that thing in the remote you said might be dead, is that the little diamond plug thing that sometimes goes into the receiver? Thanks for the comments and all the plugs and wires are fine I'll try to post some pictures because the guy I bought the truck off of had done some re wiring and some of it looks a little fishy, but he showed me it working after he had done the wires.
