K2 Control Board resistance checks

EMD
I have some questions on the results of my check.  
U6 pin 29 should read between 70 and 90k, I'm reading 96k.
U6 pin 30 should read between 70 and 90k, I'm reading 97k.
U8 pin 15 and 16 should read >100k, I'm not getting a reading at all so I'm wondering if this is the way my DMM reads infinity.

Are these readings in the ball park or do I have some trouble some where?

  Ed,

The first two readings are very likely OK, you might re-check by
reversing the leads or putting new batteries in your DMM.  The other
possibility is that you are using auto-ranging, and the reading may be a
bit different if you switch to the first fixed range greater than 90k

I don't know how you DMM indicates an infinite reading, but you can
easily check - it will be the same reading as you get with nothing
connected to the leads.
