skip shift elim.
I have a 2005 mag red. The check eng. light was on so I took it to a dealer to have it checked,according to them it was from the skip shift eliminator. Since this was not under warranty thay charged me $160.00 to check it out. Has anyone had this happen to them.

Thanks! I had a problem with the stability control on my other car and the reader would not read the code. It is an SPX unit that I have.

guys, if you don't have a code reader take it to your local parts store, like auto zone. they will pull the codes for you FOR FREE. you don't need paid these high $$ techs to tell you what codes you have. it takes me 5 sec to pull codes. if you are local to me i would charge you "free" to do this, have a great holiday.

Gotta' give my local dealer credit, they didn't charge me for diagnosing a failed CAGS eliminator. Weseloh in San Juan Capistrano, diagnosis = "recommend removing aftermarket resistor." The CAGS eliminator had basically gone open circuit, read 194k ohms after I removed it from the car.

Are all CAGS created equal?
I just pulled a code on my c6. It was for the CAGS Solenoid. I guess that my CAGS eliminator has failed. I have only had the eliminator on for 4months and 8kMi.
What kind of longevity have other forum members had with these units, and where did you get yours?

Actually, I will program the Skip shift out with EFILive and not worry about the problem.
