Firmware problem with K3 after improper shutdown

K0IZ
I was running my K3 remotely and accidentally turned off power before doing a normal power down.  Now K3 will not function.  I had once before done this and remotely reinstalled firmware using the K3 Utility program.  That fixed the problem.

However this time I am having problem with loading firmware.  MCI 05.14, FPF 01.19, DSP1 02.83, and DVR 01.03 loaded ok.  However DSP2 does not.  Gets to DTBL0014.HEX and then starts doing multiple retries at various addresses.  Sometimes aborts.  One time it completed the file install, DSP2 showed 02.83 installed.  But K3 still did not function.  

I would try a reset but since not at the radio location, don't know if that can be done remotely.

Ideas?
