Why is a single Cross Reference text turning red after doing an Update?

Question

After updating a large book in FrameMaker10, the same cross-reference made in a couple of chapters is turning to red text. It is set as Heading 2. I tried to deleted the heading and re-typing it. I tried to change the style to Body and back to Heading 2 but all references to it are turning to red text after I update the book. Any idea what is wrong and how do I fix it? I am using unstructured version. See image.

Apply a Character Format of Default ¶ Font. Then re-apply the desired Paragraph Format. If the red goes away, it was either a Character Format that had been applied or a local color override. If the red is still there ...Look at the Special > Cross-Reference > Format > Definition itself. Look for any <character-format-name> and see if any of those have a red Color defined in their Format > Character > Designer. If so, remove that building block from the definition [Change] [Done] [Replace].
