Default Replaced a headlight level senosr and now stuck in Suspension Limp Mode....

running the codes with the VAG tool from Ross-tech the only one that comes up is "control height not known" big progress today, I can get through #01, test and save, then when I go to # 2 the Login dropped session error shows up and I can't get any further. as a result the car is terminally in height #2 and I can calibrate it because the VAG drops the login every time. all the level sensors are are functional and the suspension control module is relatively new, 2-3 months. on the brink of taking it somewhere for professional help.
anything helps! thanks

Did you replace the level sensor that was the wrong model?

Default If you take a long time to go through #01 and #02? Try to go through the channels quickly without

any delay. What is the version of your cable and your VAG-COM software?

can you clear the error? if so does it only come back when you do the adaptation?

Default I can clear the error but it comes back almost immediately,"control height not known".....

and that is the only error that shows up. unless I am not clearing it the right way. once the login error shows up it then sends me back out and from the intro screen of VAG I go to options and "test" connection and it says none exists, so I have to close out VAG, then reopen to reestablish the connection... I am wondering if it is a software or computer problem.

Default have you ever got it to work with this cable/computer combo? is this a new problem?

can you other things? like does a full scan work? or the convience mods?

I really don't know... I'm just trying to help because I had the exact same problem...

Default nope; cable/computer is anew venture. going to plan ,see if indy shop can set it,.... pretty much

convinced it is either the software/plug and not the car. I turned everything off on the computer and tried it again today but got nowhere. the computer is fairly new and solid. I bought the key-usb from ross tech specifically to use for this type of thing. I'll post a thread after they check it out, thanks for your thoughts
