problems with Kinecta Federal Credit Union

My old credit union merged with Kinecta in November 2021. From then until mid-May 2022, I had no issues syncing my accounts with Quicken.
Since mid-May, however, my Quicken has been unable to sync with Kinecta (all of my other accounts are syncing just fine). I have tried all permutations of the following (in multiple bouts over several weeks) -- nothing works to get me connected:
-- quick connect vs direct connect
-- username vs member id number vs SSN
-- original password (with special characters) vs letters-and-numbers-only password
-- original file vs new file
Depending on the combo, I get either no response (off into a black hole), or more usually CC-502 "connection problem" (attempting quick connect) or OL-297-A "unable to establish an internet connection" (with direct connect).
I have spoken and written to Kinecta -- they say it's a Quicken issue. I'm fairly certain (having gone through this before) that the problem is on the bank/Kinecta end.
What log files or other information can I give Kinecta to make them understand that the issue is on the Kinecta end? Is there some way to escalate through Quicken -- for example, is there someone at Quicken who is the "rep" for Kinecta (and how do I get in touch with that person, or ask them to get in touch with me)?
Any other hints or tricks to try?
(Note that downloading QIF files is not a viable option because it only contains 2-digit years, which Quicken interprets as 1922 -- not very helpful.
)
@kbrawner64 and @AZCoder1959, I'm tagging you because it looks like you have also had issues, hoping you can point me in the right direction.....

Have you tried a Reset Account from Account Details >> Online? I had a glitch with Kinecta for a couple of days last winter, but the reset fixed things - so far.

I was able to solve my connection problems with my Kinecta accounts in May by switching to Express Web Connect from Direct Connect. That said about 2 days ago Quicken again can't connect to either of my Kinecta accounts. I have tried both connection methods and neither work. Very frustrating.0

I won't bother to tag individual people, but I was not able reset my account because I didn't have a current connection (I had deleted it when it didn't work). And as I indicated, I tried multiple combinations with both express web connect and direct connect (nothing worked).
I tried again today, and I am FINALLY able to connect, and it looks like my transactions have downloaded. FYI, I used the same credentials (username and password) that I use to log onto the web site; and I specified direct connect.
I don't have time right now, or I would try to use express web connect. I will try that again at some point, and I'll try to remember to post my results here.
Good luck out there!!!
