Loose wires in Phantom 3 4k

[adrianh25392]

I have 2 loose wires in the battery compartment of my Phantom,. Any ideas what these are?

Two main power wires from the battery connectors to the main board.

No, they should not be loose like that. You would need to open the clam shell (upper and lower drone body halves) and re-solder them to the main board.

If you are not familiar with this procedure, there are many YouTube videos available. Try: YouTube "How to open a DJI Phantom 3 Shell - Safely" by Drones Made Easy for suggestions. It is tedious and delicate work, but with patience it can be done. Be mindful of the wire to the GPS module in the upper shell, and unplug it when separating the shell. Good luck.

Is the clamshell easily opened?

See post #4 above.

Wondering how that happened. They didn't break loose on their own, took some effort. Opening the 2 halves takes some time and special tools but will be worth it if all else is still functional. YouTube is your best friend now.

Look at the insulation on the two end sorry to say looks like some serious overheating. I am saying this who have seen serious overheating working on regenerating system on class 9 trucks them are burnt.
