Can't bind a linked model?

See attached error message in Revit. I'm trying to link a model and then bind it but getting this error message. Has anyone dealt with this and have any advice?

I assume the first reason (no 3D elements) is not valid :-). So, there must be some issues with something in the model. Would you be able to upload the model for us to look at?

thats a nice looking model :-).

i have the same issues binding into my model. id recommend going into that models and ungroup all the model groups and clean up as many of the detail groups that you can. id also start going thru any families that were downloaded from vender/Manufacturer site's and see if any of them could be causing the issue.

When i opened the in 2023 i got a couple errors you may want to look into also.
