David,
Check Q1 - does it have zero ohms resistance (when powered) from the
drain to ground? It should when in the low range, but not in the high
range.
Q2 and Q5 should behave similarly.
It seems your W1 is stuck in the high range even though the firmware
thinks otherwise - that would be a logical consequence of a shorted Q1,
Q2 and/or Q5.
It my guess here is not correct, then the firmware chip itself may have
a faulty input for the VSCL signal.
