Morning, I have a wire that send from cameras to display and it is out of the connector. tried replacing it but if you hold it I can get display. Where can I purchase a ribbon cable for a P3A?

A photograph would be useful so we can positively ID the cable!

You might be able to unplug and get the wires back in the white connector with a better contact

Thanks Ianzone, I did unplug and reinsert wire and then hot glued the ribbon cable to the connector. Works on the bench have not flown it yet.

Good luck! Plenty of spares around - HERE for example.

Thanks cheddarman, I did fly it and keep getting weak video signal, locks on one image for a while then gets another, sometimes it will work for a minute or so.

If you "repaired" your cable by just pushing the wires back in, there is probably still a lose connection which shows with the vibration of flying.
Suggest a new cable, they're cheap enough!

Hello… Have you searched AliExpress ..? .. I have seen spare parts even for the Phantom 1 .. !! .. Test you do not lose anything, the detail is waiting for the arrival of the shipment. Good luck! ?

Ebay you can get almost anything you need for DJI drones . You can get a lot of dji replacement parts from Amazon .
And you could try DJI.com . I like to use genuine dji parts to be sure they fit .
