I had this problem after #1823 came back from PJ6A. Luckily, it didn't happen while we were there, although another K3 did show this error. Tnx goodness we had a spare (mine).
I bought a set of gold pins (they were not offered for free), but elected to use the 'bypass surgery' method, suggested as an alternative, as I was afraid of damaging the PC boards during the removal/replacement of the pins. The bypass was easy to do, and I have not had the 'problem' since. A few of my K3 friends have had the problem too, and I have, since my episode, recommended the bypass solution. Cheap, easy, works.
