I have a DJI Phantom 2+ v3.0
I crash it winter time landed upside down in a snow bank.
Now it has the Crazy Gimble Shake...
I have tryed fixing it by alining the motor posts, stripped it down, knockoff new ribbion cable (does the same thing) and so far nothing has worked
It's has been 1 year now I just picked it up today stripped it down, put it back togther and again nothing...

Any advice?

Probably the most obvious answer is to send it to DJI to have it repaired.

At this point, it can either be an issue with the connection with the aircraft's center board or the camera main board in the gimbal. The latter would most likely warrant a gimbal replacement. Just to clarify, you're able to at least get a camera feed from the Vision app?

Video feed works.
I have never taken apart the drone itself. could it be the board in the drone?

It is possible that the board received some damage after the crash. Before opening the craft up, have you already replaced the dampeners on the gimbal? Have you tried performing an IMU calibration in the Phantom Assistant software?

Is there any good way to test just the gimble?

Not without needing additional bench testing equipment. You can also try taking it to a local dealer that may provide a repair service or can provide you with some in person testing.

your camera is obviously damaged, im assuming its a P2V+ (your not quite clear) DJI wont warrant it as you broke it, look on ebay for a replacement unit.
