Need PDU multimeter leads/probes
Does anyone have a spare set of red and black multimeter probes for the PDU, or alternatively, a schematic of the leads so I can build my own? Or could domeone loan me a set so i can duplicate them? Certain PDU troubleshooting functions for my XJS require them.

Thanks. In your first photo, is that the button with the green and yellow wires soldered to it? Or does that contact something underneath it?
In a couple of the other photos, there appears to be a clear tube at the connector. Is that insulation for a resistor?
If you'd be willing to measure between the various pins on the connector and the probe components with a multimeter, that would really be helpful. Also the same for the black probe. Does the black probe also have a button?
Thanks again.

It appears the green and yellow wires are to the switch.
The clear tube wire looks like a coaxial. You can see the braided wires
What do you want measured? Resistance? Continuity?
You can bet the coaxial is for the probe tip but I can’t see where the rest of the wires go without breaking the probe.
the black wire has no switch and appears to have seven pins but I don’t see seven wires inside. A bunch of them appear to be jumped.
Im really surprised a probe is this complicated. I figured it just be one wire each.

The jumpers inside the connectors tell the PDU what is hooked up.
Coax explains a lot. Makes sense.
What i need are continuity/resistance measurements from the probes and switches to each of the pins in the connector. Because of the jumpers, i also need connector pin to pin continuity/resistance measurements. I'm saying continuity/resistance, because sometimes they bury resistors in the potting at the connector as well as straight jumpers. Obviously, I need a diagram of the pin numbering convention you choose.
Thanks for your help. I know how much work this is, and your response is greatly appreciated.

Hello, I have a Ford FDS2000 with the CD-ROM problem of the CDU535-01 drive, I would be grateful if I could purchase a circuit board from you, is there more recent data for the FDS apart from the data on the last CD32 ?

No problem, I have send you an email through the forum, please check your email if you haven't received, let me know your email address and I will contact you.

Thank you for you're Help
Hello everyone,
I would like to thank you again in all forms for the willingness to help that you have shown me, mega thanks also to Gijzzy.
I look forward to the component so that my FDS works 100% again.
If you allow me, as a Ford Explorer lover, I'll advertise in the Explorer-Board.de forum that you're super open-minded and helpful here.
Best regards
Andre

Bought several adapters assuming they would be for the PDU but now they arrived I see they have got a round female connector and it should be a male connector to fit to the VIA unit. Does anybody recognize these adapters? I think they belong to Peugeot or Citroën as I see ARB adapters with the same connector but can’t confirm these are as well.

You need a complete base station or only a circuit board? If you put you email address (temporarily) in your profile I will contact you directly so we don't have to spoil this topic.
#193
I actually only need the circuit board. The CD-ROM has completely disintegrated. Unfortunately, no identical or similar CD-ROM is available anymore. Even Ebay has nothing left that I could use. Sorry for my not so good english, google helped...
I thought I gave my email, but I'll try to put the address in the profile.

I am busy getting new parts for a new batch of boards for 4 months now, but suppliers are letting me down at the moment . But I am tenacious to build more!

Thanks for the answer. Today I received the device. It turns on. The drive is probably Sony. I haven't checked if the CD works yet. I'll check it on Monday or Tuesday as I'm at work over the weekend. The gray cable is missing and I also don't have the cable to connect my XJ40 1993. But with your help we will get this device working Regards

I too would like to be able to talk to the diagnostic ports on my XJ40 cars but I have always found it nearly impossible to find one of these rare PDU systems to do this.
This thread is quite long now and I was wondering if someone could describe the current status of the possibility of talking to this diagnostic system in the cars if an original PDU is not available?
Will it someday be possible to talk to the system from a laptop or from some new reproduced PDU like unit?
