You could by F45 sims and put them in temporarily to perhaps eleminat the shock problem
I assume when you pull codes they a C codes and not H codes.
I would guess the presence of moisture is the root of the problem. Either you fried a box or have a bad ground.

yes I reset the codes manually and the moment I do I hear a click in the engine bay and they come back immediately!
As far as the sims, that doesnt do me any good they are expensive and I want this system, not ready to do suspension mods yet as what I want costs a a few thousand dollars. I dont drive my car any way and if I did 80mph does make it drivable
There isn't moisture there any longer nor any grounds in that area but I think you are right I may have damaged the box, isnt there a code for that too though bad shock module?

I just cleared the codes and got a new one for the first time CO691,
along with C0690 still.
CO693 went away for the first time...and theres the new one.
Does anyone have a picture of their unmolested engine bay fuse box maybe I moved something around in this past year.
Also if anyone has a shocks computer for sale I'd be willing to buy one and try that if there are no more ideas.

Magnetic Shocks, the dampening of the shocks can be changed ELECTRICALLY-mostly snake oil. Reminds me of the EXPENSIVE air shocks on Caddies and Lincolns that everyone dumped as soon as the stock ones puked.
