No problem Roger. It's impossible that all that could be wrong with the system.

I mean, if the car sits more than gets used like in a museum then I can think of things that can go wrong with the system. Actual mechanical things like the shock rods freezing up and you can just let the controller try to do a self test and boy oh boy stuff is going to break....but that's extreme. Clips can fall out of the actuators, or the gears break....usually due to bad shocks or faulty installs.

You may have to repeat the drive & wait a few times. I know I'm sure it took me three full cycles before it went back to normal at least. I was thick headed and refused to believe that I didn't do my install correctly...I checked all my steps numerous times at each shock.

Cliff I'm going to confess....on the FX3 system....I CHEAT....I have Gordon's jumper kit, that's how I get my DTC's. If the situation gets like this one I do the battery disconn thing.
