[Elecraft] K2 transmit too high

My K2 is still transmitting at 10+ watts even though it is set at a
lower level.
When transmitting the K2 says Hi-Cur and then shows a power level of 0.1
even though the wattmeter shows 10+ watts. I have checked pin 10 of the
control board P4 and it shows
0 volts when receiving and 1.2 watts when transmitting. I have checked
all the RF detection parts
and the control board parts. It seems that U6 is getting a voltage of
6.2 on transmit but nothing is
helping reducing power. I must be missing something. I have no control
over the power level. I hate to take off the heat sink until I am more
certain where to look for the problem.
Any ideas would be welcome. 73
