Tom,

The PA voltage connector pin problem will normally result in an ERR 12V 
message.

It sounds like something has just gotten "mixed up".

Do you have a saved configuration file for that K3?  If so, you may want 
to try doing a Reset to Factory Defaults (EEINIT)and then restore the 
configuration file from K3 Utility.  If you do not have a saved 
configuration file, you will have to install all the options manually 
and go through the calibration procedures.
