K3 HELP

Phil LaMarche-2
Attempted to download new version and the utility wouldn't connect to K3.
Tried to turn off but only MCU LD showed in the window. Removed the 13 volts
and then turned back on and the MCU LD is greyed in the window and the TX
Red Light is flashing.  Frozen.  Any help on what to do next?

See page 66 of the owner's manual.  Hopefully you have saved your settings.
The manual cautions against shutting off by removing power as you go through
