Buzzing sound from gimbal motor

Hello,

I am experiencing a technical issue with the tilt axis on my Air 2S drone. Despite replacing the motor, it remains unresponsive and only produces a buzzing sound. I have attempted to calibrate the axis using Python, but it refuses to calibrate. I would greatly appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to resolve this problem.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Broken Gimbal Signal Cable. Change this and it works :)

Did you analyze that or just replace it? If you analyzed it, I would like to know how.

disclaimer - I'm not an expert.

The gimbal motor is a stepper motor.The driver circuit takes input from a 3 way axis sensor to keep the camera pointed in a fixed direction regardless of the aircraft orientation. If it is buzzing, the driver circuit is likely trying to get it in position, but it keeps dropping back. Since you replaced the motor, it might be that a wire is not connected so the stepper motor can't hold its position. Does the camera show that it is vibrating?

I have replaced a gimble assy, on a Mavic 2 Zoom and a camera/gimble wire on a Mavic Pro. Both gimbals work, but the Mavic Pro camera does not. I can't figure out how to test whether it is the camera or the circuit board. The Mavic Pro wires were ripped out when it fell thru a tree.

Yes, the camera is vibrating. I have replaced all the motors on the gimbal. The circuit board connected to the roll motor has also been replaced. I could probably try changing some cables, but I’m not sure where to go from here. Are the stepper drivers in the motherboard?
