Does anyone on here know how the secondary dooerlocking on mk2 coaches is communicated from one vehicle to the next? Is it through the TDM jumpers? Thanks.

Sorry, yes, I did mean the RCH (Railway Clearing House) jumpers, TDM (Time-division multiplexing) is a method of transmitting the data for locomotive control through the RCH jumpers.
I am currently working as a contractor on vehicles which have the panel for operating SDL (secondary door locking) but the TDM systems have been removed. I was trying to find out if the two are inter-dependant, i.e. will the CDL controls still work through the RCH jumpers?
I knew what you meant which is the main thing.
The two systems should not interact because I think the TDM signals were sent over the lighting circuit.
Good luck with your fault finding.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
