Been searching these threads for days to find the audio error codes. 2 long 3 short. Lights are blinking correctly. It picks up the gps satellites. Camera works, but gimbal wont move up or down. My gimbal wheel beeps when I try to move it. I have recalibrated compass and accelerometer. I can take a pic and record video. I have the GUI installed on my laptop. I checked everything I could with the help of this forum. I also went through the steps to rebind all.

Assuming the camera is a CGo3;
Assuming the beeps are coming from the camera;
2 long 3 short is the Yaw encoder error. Sometimes caused by a failed yaw encoder board, broken wire, failed solder, unplugged connector, corroded connector or possibly debris. I don't recall seeing one caused by a degraded encoder magnet, but it is at least possible

Did anything happen between the last time the camera worked right and the first time it did not? Crash. long storage, camera disassembly (for any reason), history not known, etc.

Thanks for replying. It is a cgo2+. I stupidly moved the camera with the protector on. Not sure if that's what did it. At one point I thought I had it fixed. The camera moved up and down. So I shut it down and turned it back on a day later and the same thing. No movement. It had not been used in a while also. It flies and records but can't move gimbal. It says when the radio comes on, unable to connect to camera.

Moving the camera with the protector on probably won't hurt it. More likely the IMU has drifted somewhat out of calibration during the long storage. There is a trick that works on many such cameras
Tilt the Chroma back so it is resting on the back tips of the landing gear, and the rear motors. Power on the drone/camera. If the camera initializes, it will continue to work until next time the camera is powered off. This "45 Degree Angle" trick will have to be done each time the camera is powered on.
 
I tried the tilt back. Been about 20 mins and not connecting. I do notice also that there is an amber light on below the antenna. And in the gimbal there is a red light flashing twice every second or so.

"I tried the tilt back. Been about 20 mins and not connecting."
Try the tilt back all the way to the drone pointing straight up. If it does not initialize before the beeps start, it will not initialize.
You can also try tilting towards left/right and forward.

The Chroma GUI has a "calibration" that works on the CGo2 series. It is not a complete calibration and not likely to work, but it would be worth a try. The Windows version of the GUI is attached. The USB cable must be a data cable. Ordinary charging cables will not work.

"an amber light on below the antenna."
Which antenna? Can you upload a picture or describe how you are seeing the light?

"there is a red light flashing twice every second or so."
Could it be a blue and red light flashing alternately?
 
The amber light is probably the LED on the receiver SR24. It will be solid when RC is connected, blinking when RC is not connected yet (Receiver is waiting for connection) and fast blinking when the drone is in Bind-Mode.
