Ok bare with me - Ive had problems with a parasitic draw on the battery and after reading various posts about this problem, I came to the conclusion it must be the HFT module however I have not as yet confirmed or unconfirmed this. What I did know for sure was the hft had never worked since buying the car 5 months ago !
Anyway looking on Lings website and discovering they wanted £1780 + VAT for a HFT module I started looking on ebay but they wanted £225 for a second hand one with no guarantee to how long that unit would last, I thought there must be a cheaper option. I came across this site after putting into google the IC number stamped on the back of the HFT unit.

which led me to this link- http://api.viglink.c...138218462282311
So this was what I did last night. I Reinstalled the unit this morning and hey presto HFT system now fully functional.
Don't know as yet if this has cured battery drain problem I will keep my eye on it and do a multimeter drain check when I get the chance to. I will report back if any news.
