[Elecraft] Broke my BFO!

In need of assistance.
My two week old K2 *WAS* working well. The 4 mhz. oscillator was a bit off.
So, I decided to touch it up a bit. After several adjustments to C22 and
running CAL PLL a couple of times and touching up L34 the IF slug, I no have
no BFO frequency at TP2.
Using the internal counter and a test lead, I have a frequency readout of
4913 on the diode side of L33, but none on the xtal side.
Suspected L33 was open. Removed one end. It has continuity. With it out
of the circuit things are just the opposite, there is 4913 on the xtal side,
but nothing on the diode side. There is never frequency at TP2.
Suggestions will be warmly welcomed. Solutions will be gratefully accepted.
I have duct tape.
