Now that's funny mark maybe, I could get that and run into large puddles the only disatvatage I'd be the one getting wet not my modules LOL. I'm gonna disconnect the module Sunday to clean it I'll let u know if the lights go away I'll try to clear the codes.

my bet is lights wont go away. How many miles on the shocks? I dumped my f45 got C6z shocks and deleted the f45 option from the PCM with tech2
For $300 plus install for the shocks 400 total you have no more issues and kick ass suspension. Since you kept it in the stiff mode you will love the C6z shocks. Since your under there get the c6z51 sway bars another $150 and you wont believe how good the car handles. Then the run flats go..I hope you can get rid of the codes once and for all

Check out the picture of the Bilstein shocks on this page. Someone was either drunk or in a goofy mood when they typed in the code [Kooky]

Or both. [LOL!]

i think i gonna hold off a bit on the shocks, i might be investing in a used RTD unit if i cant try it out. no point in changing shocks if the car is gonna keep telling me there unoperble lol.

Pretty spread out across the spectrum. Wouldn't even have a guess. [Confused] If there are signs of water around the BCM no telling what may be effected, even with it being dry now.

status update on my lovely ride:

i was not able to clean the RTD module so i had to replace it. 250.00 but all the messages went away. i sent back the ABS module back to absfixers to get it repaired. the question is the following i cant remember getting a service engine soon last time i removed the abs module can this be related to the removal? what do you guys think.

the messages i get right now on my DIC is service engine soon , service ride control, and ofcourse i have my ABS and track lights on dash.

what do you guys think

Wait until the ABS module is reinstalled and see what codes you have then (hopefully NONE).

As long as the car keeps starting, and indicated voltage doesn't go below 12V on long drives, I wouldn't be too concerned about that. How low does it go?

If you replaced the RTD module, the Service Ride Control message should have disappeared if that was the cause.

You still need to post all of the codes store in the DIC for an accurate diagnosis.
