It always played up but I knew the connection at the transducer was a bit dodgy. When I looked at it last night I found one of the wires in the connector barely held in so changed the plug for a good one. Thought I had sorted my issue but obviously not!

L19MUD Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Not quite finished this but I had 12v at the connection at the dash end of the wire running to the transducer so there was certainly a problem with that wire. I decided to remove the original 3 core wire and run a new 2 core wire to take the live feed and signal. The earth has been terminated on the main earthing strap from the battery to the gearbox mounts. All I had time for at lunch so will connect those two wires up tonight at the dash end tonight and fingers crossed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L19MUD Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Good news! Connected up at the dash end and working with no issues 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy.cowman Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 (edited) 4 years later..... i am now about to do this! It shouldn't be hard to see an improvement on my 200tdi as almost none of the panel of little bulbs work, the gauges are guesses at best! I managed to get some TD5 gauges which are in the post at the moment for £220. I think the only bit missing will be the plugs into the LED panel itself however you seem to be able to get the terminals on ebay for about £15 each now. So yeh - here goes some wiring next week!

Hi Andy, That's my listing on eBay 😀 I've posted the 2 x connector kits to you by RM Special Delivery. The connectors you've bought, mate with the TD5 instrument harness. The 16-way and 20-way connectors for the TD5 LED panel are here - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151462720313 Regards, Paul. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also only need one of each of the black 16-way and 20-way connectors, which I sell as a set in my listing linked to above. If you want to return the second grey connector - that's fine, I'll refund you for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ordered the other one.... Thanks! Thanks for your additonal order, I'll get them in the post to you tomorrow. To return the spare grey connector, just send it back in the box, with the bubble wrap, I sent both of them to you in. My return address is on the rear of the box. Just stick a blank label over your address, the postage label, and the Special Delivery label, and use a 1st or 2nd class Large Letter stamp (they go-up in price (AGAIN!) by 15p, from 2nd April ☹️ ) Don't bother with eBay's return process, it's too complicated, more expensive than it needs to be, and can't cope with a partial return. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy.cowman Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Glad I re-read the thread again! Found the chat about .52mm wires to crimp on! Just ordered some on amazon in various colours so I can create the connectors and then will solder up the wires from the existing loom once happy everything is correct Wonder what else I have failed to order?!

andy.cowman Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Some progress.... got the large plug wired up nicely and its connected up on my desk. But the 20 and 16 plugs to the warning panel are a pain!!! I thought I had the 20 one done but it wont push in so I guess at least one terminal isnt in properly. Any one got any tips?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
