    Do a Ze at the board and a Zs at the socket, do R1 & R2 then : in theory they all have to add up, there must be a high resistance there to drop the voltage that much. Regards Jimbo
    Never argue with an idiot , they will bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience

    And probably a lot of heat somewhere.
    Or something silly with the wiring.
