I have K3 #145 and this problem has plagued me plenty in the past. I now know
it *is* a problem with the FP connections as Wayne describes. I've more or
less stopped it by using Deoxit on the pins; clearly there is an issue with
oxidation(?) of the pin surfaces.
BTW, Jorge states the radio

Wayne,
Would you have an idea which SN, or at least the approximate date, the
cut-over to gold-plated connectors occurred? Did this include all
connectors, or just the front panel ones?

Hello,
I have been away for 3 months. The K3 was completely disconnected from
antennas, power supply, including removing the PP from the back of the rig.
Today I decided to update the firmware and when I turned the power on, I
got err BP1, then LPF, IO3, IF1, XV3, AT3, PA1, and BP3. After that,
Replace the memory back-up battery ... it's probably dead and you
are losing the configuration each time you remove power.

I was under the impression that the battery is only used to power the
real-time clock, and config is stored in EEPROM/flash.
If I was Tom, I'd try the EE INIT (page 66 in the manual) and see
what happens...

Could be intermittent contact between the Front Panel module and the
RF board. Try loosening all the screws on the FP module, backing it
out 1/8th inch or so, then plugging it back in.
