Default Another column lock service question

I think I have a unique problem not covered in past CLS threads . I lowered my 00 frc on the stock bolts yesterday and now have a CLS cutting of the car after movement . The previous owner installed a bypass module made by Adaptive Performance that plugs into the columnlock solenoid along with some sort of wiring mod at the BCM plug . It appears that he took the purple wire that originally went to the green plug and tied another wire to it and ran it to a black relay located above the BCM box ? Does this make any sense to anyone ? I'd like to just get the bypass kit from LMC and restore the wiring . BTW ,I did the steering wheel to the extreme left & right without the car running while adjusting the front lowering bolts .

As I recall adaptive performance went out of business, they were out of Sunrise, AZ, and I do not know anything about their Column Lock kit.

Find the DTC codes: pull codes BEFORE turning off the engine. To pull codes with the engine running you need to use the reset button to clear all messages in the DIC, then pull codes as normal. Post ALL codes that you have..........there are several references in the C5 Forum on how to do it.
