With rev match it kinda does not matter if its on or off....if it stays on no harm, no foul...live with it for a while and see if it self-remedies...even if you don't use it - it makes all of us "better drivers" At least a little bit smoother.

This is a long shot (and I might be thrown under the bus). Disconnect a battery cable for a few minutes then reconnect. This reboot might clear the problem. Be sure to reset the side windows' open/close memory.
When reconnecting the cable, make sure it is set down firmly on the post when tightening.

Surprised no one has jumped on the dead/weak battery remedy. 2014 with 16K. Could be the original battery. Funny things happen with today's Corvettes and a weak/dead battery. If it has a new battery, disregard my post.

While the battery (hopefully not older than dirt) is disconnected, clean the cable connectors and terminals. 
(two things needed with "modern" vehicles: a multi-meter and a code-reader, both cheap and readily available)

Rev match has made me dumb. Absolutely moronically dumb. LOL. I tried driving the other day with it off....
.....I'm glad I was alone.
Definitely look into the condition/age of your battery. If it's the original....get a new one. These cars WILL start acting very bizarre with dying batteries.

thanks for all the answers
still have the problem
i have a new battery and no codes. flippers don't work at all i think its in the clock spring or in the flippers
its just the light from the gear indicator that lights up one in a while when i am driving and sometimes it don't for a 100 mile drive
a weird problem
