Persistent Wire Ack Fault error debugging MIMXRT1060-EVKB

[rdmikkelsen]

I am getting an error in MCUXpresso IDE when trying to debug on a MIMXRT1060-EVKB board (i.MX RT1060 Evaluation Kit) after a successful build. The error is: 

Unable to connect wire for probe index 1. 

Error: Wire Ack Fault - target connected?

followed by: 

02: Failed On connect

Could not connect to core. 

31: No connection to chip's debug port

No changes to the code, jumpers, or other configurations have been changed since it debugged successfully last. It's connected over USB, and debugging with the MCUXpresso IDE LinkServer configuration. 

I have seen several people with this error, but none of the solutions have worked for me. In particular, trying to do a Mass Erase, which some have suggested, gives the same error. I have also been clicking "Clean Up Debug" after failed attempts, and power cycling the board. Also, I have verified the USB cable is good for power and data, and I get a different error (LinkServer not found) when the USB cable is actually disconnected. 

Is there a way I can get it into a usable state again?

Thank you for linking this tool and the steps to use it! This has worked for me more than once already today, so this seems to be a reliable solution.
