    Replacing the WiFi module on a vacuum cleaner iROBOT i7

    Hi,
    I have had an iROBOT i7 with a camera error (error 68) version REV M, year 2018.

    I bought a liquid damaged Mainboard with WiFi module, from the same vacuum cleaner, but a different year and a different version (REV G).
    (This board does not respond, only the LEDs light up in a circle.
    The liquid damage is catastrophic and restoration is impractical).
    (I bought this board to get the WiFi module and camera).

    The boards are completely different in the installation of elements, even the connector for the WiFi module is different.

    If I connect a new WiFi module with the old Mainboard, the vacuum cleaner behaves the same as liquid damaged - it doesn't react to anything.
    If I replace only camera, it gives error 68.
    As a result, I can't replace the WiFi module. Most likely they are software incompatible.

    Questions: To combine an older Main board with a newer WiFi module, is it enough to replace SPI only?
    Or also needs to move all STM controllers? (There are three of them).
    Help me please with your experience.
    Thank you!

    I changed SPI.
    Nothing gives me.

    Will try STM.
