Can STM32 ST-Link work on Icom IC-F3162 hand-held transceivers

I`m trying to find out if my STM32 ST-Link can be connected in some way to my Icom IC-F3162 hand-held transceiver as the radio has died completely following an attempted firmware update to the radio`s whereby my pc crashed interrupting the update. Radio will not switch on so believe it will require a complete re-set which I`m hoping it can be carried out via my ST-Link so I can reload the radio`s firmware. Need advice on this please.

Does it have a STM32 MCU at all ?

You would need to identify the MCU variant first, a schematic would be helpful, too.

As a next step, you could try to attach a ST-Link or another JTAG pod, taking Discovery/Nucleo boards as hardware reference.

If the pins for JTAG/SWD are hooked up otherwise, or the device firmware was ROP enabled, this approach might fail.

The system bootloader (BOOT0/BOOT1 pins) with the Cube Programmer (or the older FlashLoader Demonstrator) are worth a try.

> Radio will not switch on ...

I suppose the half-done firmware is crashing underways, or refuses execution because of an initial integrity check.
