Ooh, true! I got so wrapped up in pondering Kirchoff's laws that I
totally forgot to blame the meter.
That doesn't help explain why his boiler isn't heating of course so it's
still a weird problem.

If all three of those are true simultaneously, then something else in
the machine has to be sinking the other 55V at ~4Amps. The only thing
in the machine capable of sinking that much power without instantly
bursting into flames is the other boiler. Which implies that they've
somehow arranged themselves in series? Hmmm.
If it's controlled by a PID and the PID has started controlling the
output, many meters will have a hard time telling you what the output
actually is and so a reading of 65V might be perfectly reasonable.
