The throttle won't ansver the controll...

1st, the throttle and brake linkages are connected incorrectly. Move the brake arm on the transmission brake post opposite of where you have it and move the linkage rods on the servo horn for the brake and throttle (the brake and throttle linkage will need to be directly across from each other on the servo horn) and the setup will work better.

I would then get a new servo, that one has seen better days.

Yeah, I know, but I'll try to set it up like it's on the picture u just showed me, thnx
 
I've found out that when I use the throttle on the control, the reverse/forward gear tries to move instead of the throttle. But the reverse/forward button works as it shoud...
 
You have the servo wires hooked up wrong. Try swapping the reverse and throttle servo wires where they go into the receiver.
 
I've tried that, dosen't work, But it did work earlier, before I putted on the new parts...
 
Having the plugs connected wrong is the only cause for your problem. Steering-channel 1. Throttle/brake-channel 2. Shifting servo-channel 3.
 
Yeah, and that's how it is, but I tried to change the throtte-servo, and then it worked, untill I mounted it and putted the one that I sat wrong (pictures above) on the servo, then the gears started agen, but when I'm using the gears, that works at it is should.
 
When I turn the control on, the throttle servo is going to the right, and then stops totally to the right, but it won't change...

another problem that you might be having is one or more of the wires may be broken from pinching of excessive bending, i agree with Spook Man you really do need to get a new servo. but it could also be that your reciever and or transmitter batterys are low and need to be replaced/recharged
 
I have not found out of the problem, but I have given up this t-max, now I got a nitro buggy, I can post some pictures on another post later, and this buggy works, so now I'm not going to mess it up :-)
