EVO-ALL will no longer go into Solid Blue Key programming mode after programming button is released?

Question

After an almost successful key programming where the Decryptor completed successfully with the EVO-ALL, Unfortunately, I did not replace the R-LINK with the TB-VW first before I reconnected the EVO-ALL. When I replaced it after it did not successfully start and gave 5 Red Flashes/Beeps.  So I am trying to start over at key programming step 1. When the programming button on the EVO-ALL is released on the Blue LED flash, the Blue LED just goes out instead of staying ON solid.  After reconnecting the remaining connectors to the EVO-ALL and pressing start button the yellow LED comes on.  It seems like the EVO-ALL is damaged if it will not go into key programming mode or perhaps the RLINK is no longer functioning,  This is not a wiring problem since key programming worked the first time.  I have no way forward can someone please help?
