OMG! Nobody can call you a slacker!
Your diagram is a work of art.

You got me confused though.
You were only supposed to diode check the testpoints that were about zero (<0.1V)

I don't understand what I'm looking at.
so OL is what is displayed when doing the second part of your suggested procedures, the "Step two: Time to try stuff. 86.7 is millivolts and only shows @test point 1 on my map and 12. These do fluctuate. Also worth a note that they drift down to a zero state if held long enough.

On the ones that did a reset did they pop up as 900e again?
Yes the the number 13 test is the only one that consistently triggers an immediate power off. Power off only. If I hold the power button before i make contact it will not reboot. If i contact it with out the power button push and hold it does not reboot. In either state I need to only hold the power button a count of 7 seconds to turn on, I surmise that this activates go to sleep type of call. And yes they all reboot into 900E

It looks like you only did a real test on 3-4 places?
I did both your prescribed tests on all 33 points 4 times twice in ascending order twice in descending order. I can see my mind map looks a little un structured, That's an old mans life time struggle with dyslexia and I apologies for the mess. There are two columns one on the left hand side of page and one on right hand side of page. the one on the left is Step Two first step one Second. The one on the right is step one first and step two second. I've also done random re re testes to be sure and eliminate the human error. all results are the same plus/minus a point or two.

Edit: You've got two voltmeters. You can cross check them.
Connect the black to black and the red to red.
Put one on diode test and look at the voltage with the other one.
Then do it the other way around.
!! now why didn't I think of this!! I will test this out tonight when i get home! Dam how goofy the brain works, this could be another good test.

Thanks again for all your patience and assistance. I've already order the onyx boox Nova air C as I need to read!! This however is a battle that I will happily fight till a binary 1 or 0 occurs!
