Error Code 8M

I have been diagnosing this problem for 2 hours, have not made much progress.

A40 test shows less than 1 volt.
Tested conductor cable wires for resistance, from Carriage Manager to the wires of connectors for Reach Proximity Sensor & Mini Power Supply *wires are in good condition, less than.6 Ohms per wire.
I swapped out the Carriage Manager, Mini Power Supply & Reach Proximity Sensor with known good parts.
Same Error Code Appears every time.

Disconnecting JP5 @ Mini Power Supply increases voltage to 1.45 volts, which does not provide any benefit.

According to the Service Manual, the Carriage Manager creates 8.5 volts - 11.0 volts that is needed by the Mini Power Supply.

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
