Default disabling active handling

My active handling system throws an intermittent code that is extremely irritating. Is there anything that I can do to disable the system or program the computer to not throw the code? I'd appreciate any help.

thanks-Bill

True but, probably not as irritating as looking for a way to tow a wrecked Vette home. I would strongly suggest that you repair it.

What size tires are you running? Have you pulled your codes? If so, list them.

Default give us the code(s)?

..and we can help you find the solution...here's how:
with the key in the on position, but the engine not running
push and release the reset button until all messages cleared
next push and HOLD button #4
next push and release button #1 four times while holding button #4
When first engaged the on-board diagnostics go into an "automatic" mode which shows all parameters: PCM-TCS-RTD-BCM-IPC-radio-HVAC-LDCM-RDCM-SCM-RFA. If there are no problems, you will see "no more codes" on the ICP display. The computer will show two kinds of codes, "current" and "history," designated "C" or "H". A current code indicates a malfunction is present in the system whose module is displaying data. A history code indicates a past problem. When the screen displays "manual diagnostics," select the desired module by pressing the "options" button to go forward or the "trip" button to go back. Press "gages" to go forward or "fuel" to go back. To exit the diagnostic mode at any time, press "E/M".
to erase or "clear" codes, press "reset"
