I keep having signal problems, I loose reception a lot and at short distances. Batteries are both good in the receiver and transmitter...whats next?

Are you running Alkaline batteries or a rechargeable NiMH on the RX? Is the RX antenna wire crimped or broken?

You might want to open up the receiver and see if the wire has pulled off the board. If it has, either replace it with a new one or solder it back on if it's not damaged.

I'd check whether everything is still connected, or that anything is shorting out on something.

Also looked for chafed servo wires.
