Another update: Cleaned the contacts/terminals on the alternator and coolant circulation pump - disconnected condenser fan (does not work anyway) just in case it is drawing too much current - still only 11V while idling
I think I'll be ordering a new K40 just in case - and to have one as a backup in case it is OK. I am still perplexed by that 'bridge' that was present before I cleaned it away - there was no evidence of any other bridge anywhere else on the board or even any contaminants. Could that be the remains of an undersized wire from a modification by the PO?
Just in case there are any K40 experts out there I've attached a picture of the connections so check if anything is odd or out of place. Notice the spliced wires on the left side of the attached photo - not sure how those got there...
