Where is ......
Where is 997.618.516.01 located? Durametric calls it the Communications Front Control Unit (Comfort)
Battery died and after I did the emergency procedure to open the boot lid I got a C127 error, it goes away and then comes back intermittently.
TIA

Dude...search C127 first
Before replacing the unit, try actuating the emergency frunck release a couple times followed by actually resetting the module via durametric...worked for me. May not need to replace the part. Good luck. If you've already solved this, sorry to resurrect!

I had an issue with mine after polishing the car! Threw loads of codes. I actually have a replacement here, part # 997.618.512.01, but never used it. Despite been told that I needed a new front control module, I cleared all the codes with my Durometric and they never came back and everything works fine.
Be aware that a replacement unit may need programming by the dealer to your vehicle. The replacement unit I bought from a dealer threw almost as many codes as the "faulty" one. After speaking to the dealer they informed me that it needed to be programmed to my vehicle.
