So in the cmos world I come from, some circuit inputs would have a pull up or pull down resistor, in 10's kohm range
on inputs that would be tied high, low, or float. So when the OPS switches from normally closed to open, that is a floating input, a pull up would convert that to a high.
For measuring ohms, it means that you would be connected to the +side of the board thru a resistor and probably a gate, meter polarity would matter.
So if you measured 1k thru just connector wire & OPS, I would think that is your problem.
