As QinteQ and bignev says, this is such a common one. IOD is 'always' (I say that carefully!) the biggest idle draw. Why is that? Because it powers all the idle equipment in the vehicle waiting for a wake-up (From keyfob remote. Radio/accessories, etc) so when you found that the higher draw, what current was it pulling at idle? The current will answer your question. Many amps and you have a problem, otherwise I'm with QinteQ, battery would be my first port of call knowing how much trouble we all have with keeping out batteries topped up and happy (Even after buttonmod a top up from a charger now and again never hurts)

14.6 without first having the ButtonMOD wiring completed is unheard of my friend. The BCM applies a 'limiter' denying the battery anything over 14V. This IOD issue earns a 'frequent' label on these forums and though it can be anyone of dozens causes usually it starts with the "its definitely not the battery" phrase. So eliminate battery then bodge wiring particularly audio. Best of luck.

The IOD fuse is for the Body Control Module and various other things. It's been on very recently so worth a look back on recent posts but I think you need to check this one for draw only after at least 15 minutes of key out and exit the car, it monitors for internal lights, door closers and other bits for a while before going to standby mode.

sorted it , theres a very small o ring inside the female socket replace it with something near enough and seems ok thanks for viewing
