It happened. I finally crashed. Clipped a cable that I thought I had cleared! My own stupidity!

First of all I think the gimbal is missing something from the front when I compare pictures.

Next, the gimbal check/calibration after powering on stops halfway through. Now I thought this might be due to a torn cable or because the bracket that it slides under has snapped.

I've opened the Mavic up and had the gimbal and plate out and can't see and cable issues however obviously I can't be sure.

I've attached pics below, is there anyway I can replace the part that the plate is supposed to slide under? If I could at least try this before sending off for repair it might save me some cash. I don't have DJI care refresh so this might end up being a costly repair.

Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

I've replied to your pm to me but for anyone else that this happened to, I sent it to DJI and theyre now repairing it replacing the whole gimbal which was damaged too. 200 euros in total which I think is a good price!
