E-match voltage anomaly

Post flight data review notes abnormal voltage readings on Telemetrum apogee channel. Despite commanding an apogee event, the Telemetrum continued reading 4.2V across the channel for the remainder of flight. The e-match should register a significant increase in resistance within 10 mS of exceeding it's no-fire current of no fire current here. This suggests that the initiator misfired.  A fishbone analysis was conducted to classify the nature of the issue. Evidence collection is ongoing, however it appear probable that the Telemetrum e-match is internally shorted, either autogenously or to the piston.
