Default 98 c5 magnetic suspension issue

So I recently replaced rear magnetic shocks with regular c6 shocks. I bought and wired in (2) 10 watt 10 ohm resistors to take care of the 80mph maximum issue. Worked fine for day or so then came back on so I checked codes and now it's throwing code c0584 for the rt front. So I wired in another resistor to it, unhooked battery 4 couple hrs to clear code. Test drive and now it's an intermediate issue. Checked codes and it's same code c0584 but it's a history code not a current code. It works totally fine then I'll drop below 80mph then light comes back on and not able to to go above 80 for mile or so. Then light goes out and I'm able to go over 80. Rechecked my soldering and connections at resistor are good. Has anyone else happen to have same issue or any ideas on what issue might be? If I find someone with a Tech ll that will reprogram bcm will I have to unhook all the suspension components? Thanks in advance

C0584 RR Suspension Actuator Circuit
That code refers to this (See Pic) Is the little link still connected or did you unplug this unit?

It's still hooked up. Do I need to unplug it?

This is a new one to me. Your the first person I have seen just do rear C6Z06 shocks and this maybe the problem.
Do you have a set for the front?

Your code says it is the RR so would concentrate on that area. When you find someone with a Tech 2 to delete that RPO you can remove all of the F45 stuff
