If you see the message: “can not find signature when you flash the ASIC with VNISH firmware” you need to take off bitmain software protection. This message means that your ASIC has BITMAIN firmware 2019 year that has overwrite protection.
If you have BITMAIN firmware 2019 you can try to remove the protection using signature_l3plus file or the SD card image (all files you can download from this page).
If during the flashing process (via the SD card) you can’t install the VNISH firmware (the 2 leds is not blinking) check SD manual one more time or change SD card. If this not help, most likely your control board is infected with a strong virus and you have to use a special recovery manual (SD card restore).
