Why isnt my script working?

Hi devs, i want to know why is my script not working. Im trying to make a car, but it wont move
script:

local seat = script.Parent.VehicleSeat

local backleft = script.Parent.BackLeft
local backright = script.Parent.BackRight

local frontleft = script.Parent.FrontLeft
local frontright = script.Parent.FrontRight

local steerAngle = 30
local speed = 60

seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Steer"):Connect(function()
	frontleft.PartB.SteeringConstraint.TargetAngle = steerAngle * seat.Steer
	frontright.PartB.SteeringConstraint.TargetAngle = steerAngle * seat.Steer
end)

seat:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Throttle"):Connect(function()
	frontleft.Wheel.WheelConstraint.AngularVelocity = speed * seat.Throttle
	frontright.Wheel.WheelConstraint.AngularVelocity = speed * seat.Throttle

	backleft.Wheel.WheelConstraint.AngularVelocity = speed * seat.Throttle
	backright.Wheel.WheelConstraint.AngularVelocity = speed * seat.Throttle
end)

im so confused why it isnt working when it should :confused:
thanks in advance

1–Set a movement vector2 variable

movement = Vector2.new()


car.DriveSeat.Changed:connect(function(property)
	if property == "Steer" then
		movement = Vector2.new(car.DriveSeat.Steer, movement.Y)
	elseif property == "Throttle" then
		movement = Vector2.new(movement.X, car.DriveSeat.Throttle)
	end
end)

you also need a run service that. makes it move use Wait() for connect not function
else if you want make it stable on every fps use that method by using 60 / dt

Also you doing the whole thing wrong use seat.Lookvector for the math since it will go the wrong side

and for it to stop use

for i, v in pairs(car:GetChildren()) do
	if v:IsA("BasePart") then
		mass = mass + (v:GetMass() * 196.2)
	end
end

and use if

	if movement.Y ~= 0 then

-- do your code here Make sure you calculate the look vector for steer not throttle
