After a light crash I replaced the fried gimbal cable with a new on.
The gimbal works, but it wont calibrate.
There are no obstructions to  movement.
Here is a video:

I've just replaced the same cable on my Pro and didn't find it easy at all, however I was successful, I would suggest checking the 4 connectors are fully plugged in, I know that will be a pain but I found that when I thought they were back correctly in there socket one of them wasn't, there is a definite click when correctly plugged in.

Well, my next move was going to be to taking it back apart and rechecking every thing.

Well I had one connection to a gimbal motor loose, but it's still not working properly.

Well startup is better now, just not finishing the calibration, try recalibration from within the go 4 app, if that doesn't work I can't offer anything else sorry but I'm sure there will be help from other fourm members.

Tried the auto calibration, no luck.
I'm out of ideas.

That's a shame, I don't know what else to suggest. Hopefully another forum member can help.

I had to change my camera and cable with the same result (two years ago). The test with the board from a second MP was successful, so replacing the circuit board provided the solution for me.
