I have seen this before when the 2.5mm key line jack just needed pushed firmly home. A 2.5mm jack doesn't have the mechanical resistance to stay in by itself. There is also a pesky metal ridge round the socket on the kx3 which causes some jack designs to disconnect when rotated. TX without the key line causes the front LEDs to flash.
