Ok, been to and left the dealer - it is the DSC sport controller box - does anyone know how to, or if it can be, reset?

Trying to call DSC, constant busy tone.

Wow - The dude from DSC is on the forum - maybe try find him and PM him? I'd love to hear how this plays out. Good luck.

I would reinstall the factory box and see if everything clears. It it does, install the DSC to see if unplugged it reset.

I think DSC is part of TPC Racing, not sure if they have a different phone number. Tom Chan at TPC has always been the guy I've emailed with for files and questions, PM'ing his email as I don't know if I should just post it up.

If it is the DSC box, easy enough to just swap the original controller back in to verify if that is the issue?

Spoke with Tom, it does indeed need to go back to the factory and requires a hard reset - the OEM box went in and it corrected everything, but now rides like a$$.

Thank you Sir; funny how the day after the factory warranty goes, it's the DSC box that has issues...

Cheers,

Curious to know if you ever zero'd the ride height on the DSC with your aftermarket springs? Per below:

The shop that installed the springs took the car to Porsche to reset the shocks, so I simply plugged in the DSC and never had an issue.

Did you watch that video? Looks like you had the exact issue described by Tom at TPC. I think you could have benefit by zeroing the ride height as described.

For what it's worth, I had one shop install the springs and a different one install the DSC and zero the ride height per TPC Racing's instructions. No issues with FAL, and no warning lamps either.
