Fault #6 appears to be 'Excessive Driving Power' so it probably wouldn't hurt to run the TX Gain Calibration again, make sure PWR SET in the menu is set for Per Band, then check the power settings with the KPA500 on each band in operate mode.

Although I'm not sure why it would only do it when the 400Hz filter is selected. You might double check that the 2.8KHz filter is still set as the TX filter for SSB, CW, and DATA

This is easily repeatable on CW.

I have the 2.8  in slot 4 and a 400 hz filter in slot 2.

If I turn the bw down into the 400hz slot 2 position and Xmit. The amp will fault out with an error 6.

I noticed this in the RTTY contest too but never figured it out.

I wonder if I should try a transmit recalibrate? I just upgraded the FW on my K3, P3, KAT500 and KPA500 to the latest.
