Hi, My DJI Spark showed both the Accelerometer and Gyroscope disconnected. I tried to do IMU calibration as told by the warning label. However, after I press the IMU calibrate, I was stuck in the page and no response when I press 'Start'. I tried also the compass calibration. I followed the screen label to rotate the drone for 360 anticlockwisely. Also no response was experienced. I used another phone with updated DJI GO 4 installed to do those calibration. But same situation was experience. I did not crash my drone before. I have no idea what happen to it. Please advice what can I do. Thanks so much!

Firstly, I used my iphone 6s device with ios 13.6.1. Then, I tried on my Android Phone (OnePlus 5T) with Android Version 10.0.1. I experienced the same in both phones.

Spark faults can be traced back to the weakness of the connectors.

I think the accelerometer and the gyroscope is on the motherboard? is't it?

The IMU module is located at the bottom of the Spark
The error message also mentions a lack of connection. Below the video, he listed the disassembled parts. Check it out:

It is quite hard to dismantle the whole drone to get the IMU!! Can I do the repair by DJI after the warranty period?
