Default Dual Mode Performance Exhaust

While returning from a road trip in stop and go traffic I noticed my performance exhaust turned on (from mild to wild) by itself and now I can not turn it off. I'm pretty sure the battery in the fob is good because the light goes on when I try turning it off and on.

Anybody have any ideas?

I'll bet you 20 bucks it's the exhaust valve control solenoid melted. Same thing happened to me a couple of years ago. I bought a new one, removed the M2W switch - since by then I had bought a Dashlogic module - and I haven't had a problem since. Not saying it was the M2W that did it though. Do a search on here under "NPP exhaust solenoid melted". I'm pretty sure that I posted some pictures on a thread and there are a few other threads on it as well.
