Default HELP! DIC Codes I dont understand!!

Okay so heres what happen im leaving work to go to lunch, when i leave lunch that day i turn the car on and what i usually do before anytihng is turn act handling off and hit reset well i did this and the dic came up act hand- warming up ( i was like this makes no sense because its 92 degrees out side) anyways i blew it off two miles down the road the check engine symbol lit up. i got back to work looked through the dic and notice a few body codes and (2 pcm) codes with out thinking i deleted them just to turn my engine light off. i regret it now because those codes could of helped me out. Anyways i called Chevrolet and talked to their corvette tech. he told me that this situation usually occurs when there is a problem with the suspension, (im thinking okay i lowered the car) Could that be the issue? Has anyone ever expierence this? Please help me out if you can.

On a side note i doubt this has anything to do with it but i changed my spark plugs last night i put in NGK TR55's

Thanks Guys Any help would be appreciated...

First off, your Active Handling Warming Up message has nothing to do with the ambient tempature outside. It is very possible you dislodged a connection with your ABS or suspension sensors when you lowered your car. Were your error codes history or current?

My car does not ahve the active handeling option on it, they guy I got it from said he didnt want it cuz you cant do very many modifications to the suspention. But you have had it lowered for some time now, so that might not be the problem (or could it)

I've had the message several times & it usually just goes away after it tells me "Warmup complete." It can happen if the wheels are turned as you start to drive.
