Isolate PCB, connect and wait for ready, send standby, remove isolation, recalibrate, clear smart, repower with HDA still attached, check NRG lists and if empty regen translator. Repower and should have full ID and access.
Before any translator regen, make sure SA modules and system files are backed up. If you are not familiar with this process please write here for more details because if some steps are made wrong, data could be lost forever.

Via Terminal.
Described by AJ instruction will affect 93, 135, 28 and 35 system files, also better to make a backup of 93 system file too.
According to provided by AJ steps backup should be performed via Terminal after "recalibrate" and before "clear smart" steps.
Also you can try to perform shorting procedure (short reading channel on the PCB between two recallibration attempts) for getting terminal access.
