Default Turning Off Active Handling (2002 model)

After turning off active handling, I noticed that the DIC continuously shows a warning message alerting me to the fact that I turned off active handling. As far as I can tell, it never goes away until you turn the "yaw control for dummies" switch back on again. Unfortunately, this appears to disable all other DIC functionality. So, for example, you cannot see your instantaneous gas mileage while doing donuts.

Is there any way to turn this silly message off and restore the DIC's functionality, while active handling is turned off?

TIA,

Donn Vickrey
Scottsdale, AZ

:crazy: :chevy :crazy: :)

Press the lowest button "reset" to acknowledge the message then it's all as you'd wish

Cool! Thanks for setting me straight.

P.S. - Does anyone sell a DIC for dummies book? :D

General Motors makes one. It's got a nice red cover but they cost over 40K. Still, mine did come with a free Corvette :)

(Sorry, mate, I couldn't resist it)
