1.8V not comeing out from nRF9160

Hello Nordic Community,

I made custom hardware using nRF9160. I updated modem with latest firmware version 1.1.0.

After updating at_client example code my log file as shown below,

This log include without yellow wire hardware.

AT%XSIM returns 0.

After more debugging of hardware I noted that 1.8v is not coming out from nRF9160 modem's SIM_1V8 pin.

How could I test hardware now? and Why 1.8v is not coming out from pin?

Thanks and regards,

Nikunj
