Hi, this should work. just identify the pins. check or test be lifting the car and turning it ON. using whatever controller you have try going forward and se which wheels rotate. then turn left and check which motor rotate and the same for right turn. I am not sure if the car has servo to physically turns the wheel or just by controlling the each motor it rotates. My point is to see if 4 motor is used when running the car or just two sets run together. this can be checked to see if two L298N is used or 1. here an one of 4 videos on a smart car kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gKqXgrx81MXegWw.html using L298N.
