Ee(42) Could not connect to core - MCUXpresso

Hello

I have a custom board with a KL17Z64 that was running over a year or so. After a software update, run for a while and after a write on Flash procedure, the MCU stop working. The application does not boot, and part can't be programmed anymore. The reason why that happen is under investigation.

The only thing associated with the Flash I found in the new software was an address definition as  #define addrss2 63488;   The ';' was not supposed to be there. Not sure that would make any difference.

Anyhow, I checked similar posts like:

 
I have tried to power up the part with NMI_b and/or reset_b tied up to ground, disconnected those from the ground and run the debugger/mass erase/Kinetis resurrect. 
 
I have tried to power up the part and run the debugger/mass erase/Kinetis resurrect with NMI_b and/or reset_b tied up to ground. Still can't communicate with the part.
 
The application software never changes the definition of SWDs, reset_ and NMI_b pins.
reset_b and NMI_b pins are not used and left floating in the board.
 
Here is the log:

I'm using MCUXpresso IDE v11.7.0_9198    MCU-LINK  3.108 on Windows 11. I also tried same procedures with PEmicro Multilink ACP. 

Any help to recover is very appreciated.

Thank you,

AndreVB
