    HFT

    I'd take you up on that too lol There was one on ebay for £150 only a few weeks ago just north of Milton Keynes. I tried it and it was definitely faulty! They are rare and getting hard to come buy. :(

    HFT

    I drove to a breakers yard to test one that was "fully working" and it was worse than my broken one! Not all faults appear to be the same. I've not experienced battery drain, only bluetooth connection failure. Some have replace capacitors and fixed their modules. I tried it and the capacitors...

    HFT

    My friend who is going to solder on a new connector is a lovely guy, but is busy and probably forgets about the module, being periodically reminded by me every few months! Last time we spoke, he ordered a connector between the two boards and it was the wrong size. That is as far as we have got...

    HFT

    Hi everyone, I have probably posted about this in the past, but I am back on a mission to get my HFT working again. I tried replacing a resistor I had read about which did nothing. The actual fault has been located to the board connector that links the main board to the sister board. It's a...

    Sat Nav Routing Options

    It seemed remarkably simple. The button to press looks as though its a "go back" button so would not have thought to press it lol

    Accord (HFT) Hands Free Telephone - Trouble Making calls

    I have an s4 and have the same problem. Sorry I can't add anything to remedy the issue. On a brighter note, consider yourself lucky it even connects.. mine rarely does! :)

    How can I test the alarm

    Try locking with window down. Reach in and unlock the car from the inside. That sets mine off.

    Sat Nav Routing Options

    I'd like to add to the list of problems by asking how you might cancel a route to stop directions being given if my destination changes or I just want some quiet time?

    Impressed with my mpg, what's yours?

    550 miles town and countryside road, very tame driving. Are there any suggestions as to how one might improve this figure? I had a full service but the plugs were not changed. Could this be a factor?

    my car got vandalised last night :(

    Hi, just an update. The replacement bumper was the correct size and colour. I fitted it with help at the weekend and am much relieved to have it all mended. Now I hope no more idiots decide to use my car as a punch bag. In other news, a whole cup of black coffee went over in the foot well...

    cheap parking aids and reverse cameras..any good?

    Quick update. With help, the camera is fitted. Parking guidlines, clear picture that seems good at night from what I've seen. The LEDs that illuminate the number plate offer more rear light and look pretty cool. The parking sensors on the other hand, the bumper has metal behind it and had to be...

    my car got vandalised last night :(

    It was found on ebay but purchased away from ebay due to paypal account closure many moons ago. It was £175. In hindsight I should have tried to chip the price down, but I was just relieved to find an exact replacement of mine.... He probably broke mine and popped the replacement on ebay lol

    my car got vandalised last night :(

    I knew this would happen - I waited all weekend for a response from about 4 different parts companies for a quote on a rear spoiler because the Ebay ones for £50 were not the same. I had nothing all weekend so last night I made payment for a BNIB one in the same colour as mine (which is handy)...
