I'm working on my older Phantom, and it has an issue. The camera doesn't work now. There's also no status light on the front of the gimbal main control box. No red light, not green light.

Any ideas where to start looking?

Thanks for any replies.
 
First thing to check is the three cables that come down from the Phantom and go into the gimbal base.
Make sure they are all pushed in properly - bent tweezers might be useful for this.

+1000. This happens on hard landings.

If that fails then you may need to do a full firmware reset. let us know and i can point in the right direction to reset firmware for gimbal.
 
I've had the two cables in front get a bit loose on me, to the point where the camera didn't work. When that happened, though, the red light above the camera "on" button was lit. In this case, there's no light on at all, not green or red. I have the connectors in their bases. I felt them click in.
