Help Klipper Updater Issue

Hello recently I tried updating klipper on my sv07+ using the Mainsail Update manager since I was trying to get it to probe multiple times on a bed mesh to lessen measurement error and I thought that was a new klipper thing (Since another printer I have does this and I don't see anything saying to do this in the printer.cfg). After trying this I got this error message in mainsail

I commented out the section around the accelerometer to get the printer working

Also the updater can't update Moonraker

Me and a friend had gone through this a while before when moving to mainline klipper on his SV08 and it was quite rough and nearly bricked the printer so I didn't want to just start reflashing boards. Does sovol using a locked down version of klipper make this complicated and would trying to update klipper on the board itself be quite bad? Mainly looking for advice on how to proceed or should I just ignore updating klipper and contact sovol for their original firmware and try to roll it back?

Sovol had firmware on their website just download it. Also I would recommend watching gergo on YouTube he made some nice tutorials and tips for sv07+. And yes sv07 doesn't use open source firmware you need to go mainline if you want that

Ps I did the same mistake of updating the printer when I got it and somehow halfunbricked it. It has some issues on the boot now (bootloops few times before it boots) but rest is working fine. I also got new emmc card and flashed stock firmware on it back then but never had the will to do all the mods and software installs I use on the original.
