After having the F55 option deleted the “Maximum speed 80” message won’t go away. The other warning message about the shocks being inoperable did. Battery was disconnected but it is still there. What’s next ?

So you used a Tech 2 or some other bi-directional scan tool and still the "Max Speed 80" ????

Yes, the dealer hooked it to a computer first and tried that 3times. Then they dug up an old Tech 2 and tried that. The module is physically unhooked and everything was done per the instructions.

If I may be so bold, I would suggest the instructions were not followed. I might recommend you hook the box back up, then get a tech2 in your hands and re-do the procedure.

I did a YouTube video on my channel a few months ago...your shop most likely didn’t follow the correct procedure...I’d go back and make them redo it !!

Ok, I did that. I still have the message. When I go back and look it still shows as deleted. (No asterisk beside it) I unhooked the battery and still have the message. All 3 connections are unhooked. Do I plug the grey one back in?

Yeah, you need to basically plug the box back in, turn the option on, etc, basically get it to the same state you had it in when the shocks were pulled out. Then do the procedure step by step.
