What happens if the transmitter is switched off?

The car will totally stop twitching. So, I thougt it could be
transmitter that was bad, but I tried with 3 different transmitter and
still the same... Looks as if the receiver has problem treating the
incoming signal?

Looks like it is having problems round the detector / decoder areas. You
probably need more then a DMM to fix this.

How should I go about to start troubleshooting? And what kind of test
tool I would need?

What type of receiver is it? Regen, single or dual conversion?

Hi Don, I wish I can answer your question. All I know is this is a 27
Mhz AM receiver for R/C car. Do you think it will be too much for a
beginer to fix? I mean the circuit looks pretty simple, so I figured I
want to give it try.
