Rather than trying to hold a meter probe on pin 16, it’s far easier to use the case of the modulator ;)

I think I've killed it!!!

I was doing the voltage tests and moved the meter which nudged the power lead, the computer burred and the screen became corrupted.
I narrowed it down to where the cable exited the power supply and one of the wires had a break in it so cut back and re-soldered it.
However on power up I get no picture and a lot of grumbling sound.

So I'm pretty much done with it for the time being.

If the cable has started to fail, I recommend renewing it completely.

I have used this cable from Rapid https://www.rapidonline.com/kabeltronik ... 61-49-0478 in the past. But it’s now discontinued:-(

But anything similar should be fine.

Looks okay. Shame the listing is a little vague on which conductor size it is. But the overall size is the same, so if the larger conductor size is supplied, it should not be a problem.

I *think* that listing is the larger conductor size. But the smaller conductor size would be fine as well.

I’m going on the current rating in the details section.
