Wordfence has me locked out with a 503 error

My website was fine yesterday. Today it wasn’t responding at all, looked ‘down’.

I called my hosting company and they said to rename the wordfence directory to disable it and see if that worked. It did. when I reinstalled it, I now get a 503 error.

Currently the only way to have my website online is to rename the wordfence folder to something else to deactivate it.

I’m working through the instructions on how to regain access to my site with wordfence assistant.
