Has your 2004-05 XLR suspension module 10348979 shorted out due to water damage? Want to fix it without spending $3K. Switch to C6 corvette Non-magneride shocks and install this bypass.
This bypass removes the "Service ride control" & "Speed limited to 80 mph" messages on the Driver Information Center display.
$375 free shipping money back guarantee. Paypal accept but I prefer a check/money order . Send me your email address to Strandcaster@currently.com and I will sent you my address or a Paypal request for $375. I also accept XLR parts in trade.

Are these modules still available ?
 
What year Z06 shocks do I order for my 2005 xlr ?
Any non-magnetic-ride shocks for a C6 corvette 2005-2013. I recommend the bilstiens but there are cheaper
ones available. Check rockauto.com for a good selection and price.
 
I am ordering the bilstein shocks. Your bypass does involve removal of defective module correct ? Cuz I really don't wanna leave it in the car as it is causing a parasitic draw on battery

It's most likely not causing a draw. With the bypass installed you will be removing the suspension module.
 
Yeah, you need to check some other things on your battery draw. The suspension module is only activated when the key is turned on. Power runs thru it for starting but not when ignition is off. If it got wet I'd check the top module . it stays powered so you can open the trunk. All these are will kill a battery in a week to 10 days if not driven or kept on a charger.
 
So you have it now where it replaces the factory module , not just taps into it? And it turns off the 80 mph light?
That's correct once the bypass is installed the old suspension module can be removed. I've also created a new plug and play suspension module that restores the magneride system to factory specs. No splicing needed just plug and play. It took a long time to find the correct parts and build the module. If I were to sell these fully functional modules I would ask $750. Do you think that's a fair price?

I am a novice mechanic and ordered this bypass module for my 2005 XLR. The product arrived on time and the gentleman was great about answering a couple of texts on a Saturday during installation.

The “service ride control” error is gone and the install came out looking clean. I can personally testify the product works great and he stands behind it. I do recommend building a 7 wire 36” extension before you start installation so you can locate the module in the passenger side trunk recess.

Much thanks to Steve for the advice and support. The money I saved on a used module will more than cover some brand new Z06 shocks and struts.
