Re programed the unit. looks like it lost settings and was driving the ELS as a courtesy light. SO of course burned the solenoid in the gate lock as over its duty cycle.
loaded the ELS output with 12 V auto bulbs and it seems:
Output voltage with a 10w load is 8 V DC
N0 AC output read on a digital multimeter.
S0 i assume limited voltage regulation on the output and the output is being driven as DC. All done at night in the cold and dark so did not confirm readings just got it all working and left as is.
If i takle covers off next trip will try to confirm output :-)
