Default Magnetic Selective Ride Control PROBLEM?

When I bought my 04, I tried out my MSRC (F55) and could really feel the difference on the crappy California Highways. Now, it feels the same (stiff) no matter which mode I am in. I took it to the dealer and they say everything is fine, but I feel NO difference in the two modes - where it was dramatic before. Any suggestions? Any way to test this feature? There isn't even a light that tells you it is on!
Thanks

When the shocks don't work, you will feel it. My rear F55 shocks went out within a week or two of eachother around 10K miles. It was extremely noticable that it wasn't handling right. Also, "SERVICE RIDE CONTROL" will show on the dic when it knows there is a problem with the F55 shocks.

I'm not sure what to tell you abou thte difference between sport and tour.
