Broke means "non-functional".

PD board 1 - measured the output on the 24V cRIO connector and it reads 0V. Indicator bulb is not lit.

PD board 2 - measured the output on the 5V radio power connection and it reads 0V. Indicator bulb is not lit.

We have had another PD board where the indicator bulb did not illuminate, but the output voltage was correct.
