My Flex-6500 displays an error when booting up. SHUTTING DOWN... ERROR PSH1V5-2.66

Suddenly upon powering turning on my Flex-6500 this morning the transceiver fails the boot sequence and displays the error following error message" SHUTTING DOWN... ERROR PSH1V5-2.66. At this point the Flex blinks a RED LED 3 times with a short delay then repeats the RED LED flashing sequence. 1 have checked power, network connection, etc. Can anyone give me a hint as to where to translate this code so I have an idea what to fix or have fixed?
Many thanks for your input,
Frank - W6NEK

    I believe the error message is complaining about an internal power regulator voltage that is dead or out of spec..  I fyou have not alreardy done so remove DC from the radio for a couple of minutes and try again..  If it still fails, open a support ticket with the flex help desk.

    The three flashing red LEDs indicate that the firmware is crashing.  I have converted this topic to a support HelpDesk ticket (http://helpdesk.flexradio.com) for expedited issue resolution.  If anyone else is experiencing an issue similar to this one, please submit a HelpDesk support ticket for issue resolution.

    When I turn off all power to the Flex from my Power supply I believe that is the message I see along with a Red Power light till all power is removed.
