So yarbo had a losing battle with a car that was randomly parked in it’s mowing area. The left antenna broke at the yellow body (aside from a small part still connected) but still gets a signal i think (i get 2 green icons on the app). However yarbo also thinks the emergency button is depressed, when it is clearly not. It did look to get depressed going under the car but it doens’t appear to have any noted damage and the button does go up/down as you would expect.
So as I wait to see what support says I’m wondering if there are any guides around the emergency stop button to assess wires or things to try to get it “off”. I’ve pulled the battery a couple times, did soft and hard reboots to no avail.
As for the body, my assumption is that the core body needs replaced (i do have a 23 core but idk if it would swap?) I would guess that expoy would also fix this. But open to any other thoughts on that
I’d try removing the battery power for a few minutes.
I’m getting ready to open mine up to replace the HaLow antenna and cable. I can check and see if the left GPS antenna cable is zip tied to the stop switch. I’d guess it is. But that’s just a guess.

Unless my eyes deceive me, the stop switch cable runs down the right side of the unit bundled with other cables.
The RTK antenna cables are NOT bundled with other wires on either side.
My unit is a 2024 core.
Stop switch end of cable is labeled TERM and the circuit board side seems to be labeled J9.
Hope this helps. Based on the cables not being bundled with the RTK. I’d start by removing battery power for 5 minutes or so to see if the error clears.
This is what I did. I’m not suggesting you do this. (That’s a disclaimer as YMMV) 
I followed this video to get the lid off…
How to replace an antenna
I deviated from the video. After removing all screws indicated in the video, I still could not lift the lid.
So I removed these 4 screws.
I have not reassembled yet so hopefully it goes back together ok.
Edit:
It went back together just fine.
