I'm posting this for future reference in case someone else has this problem.

Yesterday while listening to my K3 it suddenly quit receiving any signals. I also had no RF output. There were no error messages.

I have two KSYN3A modules in my rig. I did a search and found a post by W1ZK in September who had the same symptoms. He posted he had a bad synthesizer. When I checked the DISP SYN1 and SYN2 both showed OK so I didn't think I had a bad synthesizer.

Before calling Elecraft this afternoon I removed the top to see if I might have a loose TMP cable on one of the synthesizers. None were loose but I did give a twist to the ones I could easily reach. When I hooked the K3 back up it was working again. Apparently there was a bit of tarnish/corrosion on one of the connectors and I twisted the right one.

Hopefully it will keep working!
