Connect K3 USB FTDI cable direct to K3 and try the K3 update again.

 

It sounds like There is a P3 in there, that needs updating too, and has the
piggyback connection across to the K3 with the main connection to P3?

 

In anycase, If it is the later FTDI type usb-ser cable then this program
will verify and enable user comport No select on the device;
