Nano 33 IoT rescue from the dead: No USB. No upload mode First of all: my board used to work fine.

Now my Nano 33 IoT turns ON (green light) when connected to USB on Mac but:


doesn't enter in upload mode after pressing twice on board button.
doesn't shows up in any serial port: nor /dev/cu.usbmodem14*01, neither /dev/tty.usbmodem14*01


For reasons too long to explain, I want to connect via ANY pins to the SAMD21 and force the burning of a new bootloader.

Is that possible in any way? Any idea is welcome!

Tx
Use the SWD interface and a programmer to burn the bootloader to SAMD.

I had luck with Adafruit DAP library using an Arduino M0 to burn a bootloader to MKR Zero.
