If the A-190-2 was plugged in the wrong way the gate output is fried. In
this case the collector of the npn gate output transistor is connected
to -12V which destroys the transistor. This explains why the gate output
does not work anymore. It is difficult to say if other sections of the
module are defective too. You may try to replace the transistor (Q1, BC547C)
to see if this is the only defective part. Or you send in the module for
repair to the dealer where you purchased the device.
