Evening all from Boston England, I have a working WDS for my XKR which luckily I have not had to use in anger for a long time (fingers crossed not tempting fate) and I also have one for FORD, Bit of a long shot but had need to use my ford one the other day and found that the system would not boot, long story short looks like the hard drive has corrupted, I know a few members have FORD units as well was wondering has anybody in my neck of the woods a copy of the ISO's for the i believe 4 ford disc's that i could obtain please.

sell the piece of junk to somebody with a vanquish or a db7v. $20 mongoose with legacy ids tools is faster and does everything you need for an x100 except reflash ecms which you'll never need to do anyways.

 

He is looking for FORD WDS (probably Version 43) software to get his FORD WDS working again.(not Jaguar)

 

Morning all,
an update to my post I have just found a BLUE copy of B45, will this install the basic ford software ? there is conflicting info some say this is installed first others no.

You need an 'A" disc first, (GHOST) then a 'B' disc.

I use A6, B43 and C5. (in that order)

 

Ah ok, will do that if and when I can obtain the missing ISO's or Disc's, It's Very strange that both Hard Drives seem to have failed at same time, the PDU works fine as replaced Ford for Jaguar HD and works as should. One says no RAM? the other sys cannot find operating system (or somthing like that) put one in old laptop and it boots into Windows 98! so just do not know what the answer is
Thank you for input

I gave up on regular Hard Drives and went with 4 to 8gb Compact Flash Cards and a 44 pin adapter.

The mechanical HDs are getting hard to find and fail more often.

 

Well I certainly need the disks now as my instrument cluster went for repair and came back as (hard fault cannot repair) so now on lookout for replacement panel which I will need to have synced to the key and PCM, so anybody with the disks or link to ISO's out there please, Reminder it is for FORD WDS, I have the Jaguar one.
Cheers
