Default Active Handling Question

I have an 02 vert. Yesterday got "Service Active handling" message on the DIC. Will not go away.
1. What does it mean?
2. Do I need to take it in to the dealership immediately?
3. Can I clear the code and if I can, how do I do it.

Thanks for your help,
Mike

That code usually means the car has detected a fault in some part of the active handling system, so I would recommend taking it in.

I don't have my service manual with me, but there is a way to call up the actual code which might provide more details. If memory serves, the way to call up the codes is to put the key in the on position, then hold "fuel" and hit "options" four times quickly... or maybe the opposite...

Maybe someone with a service manual handy will chim in.
