further to my battery drain problems which settles to 220ma when left the load appears to be accumulative the major drain being the fuse 3 in the rear fusebox [power soft top controller and solenoid valves ] the controller was replaced last year before I bought the car ,could anyone advise if putting an ignition controled relay into circuit 3 would be okay or should I start looking further fuse 3 is taking 100ma .Is 120 ma an acceptable drain? and where is the controller for the softtop situated thanks

The drain sounds perfectly acceptable to me.

The soft-top module N52 is under the rear seats / storage bins on the offside. I wouldn't recommend fiddling with this unless you know what you're doing. A repair is £500 on an exchange basis for these.
