HELLO!
You are probably measuring the damper that is inside the transistor. B_E
should read 50 to 60 ohms out of circuit and will sometimes read a dead
short in circuit. Because you are actually reading the coil in the IHVT.

Thank You

Is it a dead short or are you reading the B-E resistor (approx 50 ohms)?
