When I installed all my FVP equipment mine did the same thing. Finally ended up cycling the power on the GoPro and that did it. Seems to be the case every time.

Replaced the ribbon cable and no change. Guess I will move on to the next most likely cable.. Which one though?

I originally thought what fixed mine was hooking the zenmuse back up like the factory had it and bypassing the anti-interference board because that's when mine started working. Now, I think is was the power cycling on the GP that did it. After it started working I plugged back into the anti-int board and it worked as well.

I appreciate your enthusiasm to the power cycling sequence, but believe me, I have tried every sequence possible for powering on each device.

I've ordered a new cable:
To see if that fixes anything..
I've also ordered:
To see if simply taking the iOSD mini out of the picture will deliver video as expected.
Will update when installed and tested.

Replaced the internal cable (see above post) and still have nothing.. I'm starting to grasp at straws here...

Seem the only thing you haven't considered are the goggles either there on the wrong band, channel or defective.
I will investigate any possibility at this point... Would I still receive a black screen with telemetry data if they were on the wrong band or channel?

At this point anything is possible. Also make sure the goggles are on NTSC as well.
Okay. New update.
Received the mini USB straight to TX cable and I get video on my goggles (no telemetry obviously since I am bypassing that loop)
This proves a few things. 1) I am getting video out of the mini usb on the go pro. 2) The goggles are working and are on the correct channel. 3) the tx is working properly.
Since I have replaced the pnp cable, and the ribbon cable to no avail, what else is there? Do you know where I can order the grey gimbal cables replacement? Maybe the internal canbus cable? The zenmuse internal ribbon cable? Other thoughts?
Also, a second problem I upgraded the ribbon cable to the 30 pin and it is not powering the GoPro. Thoughts?

Your the second person who has had this problem this month with the 30 pin connector. Just to make sure the lack of power is caused by by the connector. With camera plugged into the gimbal and turned off power up the P2 is the power LED lit on the camera if not check to see if the power LED is lit on the gimbal plate then 30 pin connector is bad or isn't fully seated.

No.
Yes the power LED is lit on the gimbal plate.
I reseated all gimbal connections and noticed something which may be causing my video problems in the first place.
Have a link for this cable? Can't find it on Amazon for the H3-3D.

Well you have choice you can either try to replace it yourself or send it in for repair. My suggestion is the latter. You would have to completely disassemble to replace the ribbon cable. UAV/Direct may have the cable.
Was is a new P2 or used? I do not recall asking that question but I do see what appears to be wear on that gimbal

Okay that was the cable I found, just assumed the vision would have been different. I can replace no problem, I work with micro miniature electronics.
It was new when I purchased it, but I have around 500 hours flight time with it. (Also crashed twice, once for a rookie mistake with GoPro wifi on, and once by catching tree branches on a landing.)

That cable is only used on the P2 NV but tell that to the Chinese. If you call UAV/Direct they should have the ribbon cable
Hahaha.. Touché
Thanks for the lead. Will replace and report back when complete.

Suggestion if you're to repair yourself make a video on the dismantling and assembly as there is no videos whatsoever for the h3-3d including h4-3d. There is a two part for the h3-2d gimbal be that is a complete disassembly and not ribbon replacement.
