iPhone 13 WiFi and Bluetooth not able to connect despite toggle being enabled

i currently use an iPhone 13, and from the past 10 days, i am unable to connect to any WiFi nor connect to bluetooth devices, despite their toggles being enabled. i took suggestions from ChatGPT and reddit, most of the suggestions are saying that it is a motherboard issue (i'd rather will not get it fixed at a apple store or a third-party store representing apple due to the increased charges they apply). can someone please help with this issue asap? thank you
