iCubGenova09 (iRonCub3) S/N:000

Request/Failure description

The chest IMU cable got pulled right before the connector, and the IMU does not start anymore.

Detailed context

We tried with the external cable and the IMU starts. So I think it is something similar to what happened in https://github.com/robotology/icub-tech-support/issues/1689.

Hi @gabrielenava! @Gandoo fixed the broken cable. The IMU has been tested and works properly now!

[!Note] We found the cables coiled inside the connector, they may have been coiled because it may look like the connector has to be inserted inside the IMU with a rotation. Actually, it should only be inserted (pushed in), so be careful not to rotate the connector as this could cause the cables to break inside!

Closing!

thank you, I'll notify everyone not to rotate the connector, and hopefully this problem should not happen again!
