So it's covered by a relay within the LINBUS. Might be worth sticking that relay on a tester.
A tenner on Ebay or Amazon...
I've had one for years in the toolbox... as much as it's hardly ever been used in anger, it's handy for checking starter and headlight relays and the like. It's a bit easier and quicker than the old school method of running a 12v supply through the pins on a relay and listening to hear if it clicks.
Better to have it and not need it rather than t'other way around

I think we're getting too complicated the further we go down this road...the IID DTC fault refers to a physical component not working. If it had been that relay or anything else tied into the QCCM module...it stands to reason that your heater, audio or something else wouldn't be working either.
It all points to a dodgy FBH to my eyes...whether the fault is electrical or mechanical in nature reamains to be discovered...it might be stuck through never being used and just needs a dunt with a tap-o-meter (2lb engineers hammer) or something more mechanical in nature rather than electrical
The 'contact cleaning' they refer to is a JLR diagnostic tool option to force the usually automatic contact cleaning function done by the QCCM module as part of it's normal operation. If it fails...they replace the entire RJB (Rear Junction Box) by the look of things... nothing like saving the customer some pennies by acting like proper mechanics and just fixing the problem
Don't think the IID tool has that as an option, I haven't checked.

Worth ago, if not then I’m chasing the warranty guys to sort this and the rest
Could this cause damage to the battery as an argument for them to change it ?
The BMS (via the QCCM) would normally prevent that happening by isolating anything that is causing excessive battery drain or potential damage...that's why resetting the BMS parameters after a battery replacement is important.
There's definitely an issue with the FBH though...namely that it's not working.

You can upgrade your IID tool from the G3 version you have to the latest G4 version via the GAP website. You just post the old G3 back to them and they'll send a new G4 out to you...
The Gen 4 IID tool has full coverage and support for the D5...costs £220 for the replacement so it's still a fair chunk of change to shell out. Still cheaper than buying a brand new Gen4 IID tool though...that'll sting your wallet at £550.
I did the G3-G4 exchange when I bought the D5. Bought the G3 IID tool when I got the Disco 4.
