Programa / Renntech V2 Module...Rear Raises When Should Lower

Hello,

Has anyone installed the Programa/Renntech V2 lowering module with remote on his CL? My front works perfect, but the rear raises instead of lowers when you control it through the controller...any insight?



That's as low as a CL will go

Its very common on the CL. You didn't get the proper instuctions. For the rear, the wiring is backwards. I had the same thing happen to me. I will have to see if I still have my instructions.

On the 215 the rear sensor has to be swapped to + from the control unit.

On the black 8-pin connector in your instruction it says pull pin 2 and insert into pin 2 in the black connector and remove pin 5 and insert into pin 6 on the black connector. You have to swap those around. So now you have to take pin 2 and insert it into pin 6 in the black connector and take pin 5 and insert it into pin 2 in the black connector. Hopefully that makes sense. If you're still confused, call Renntech.

So all you're doing is swapping those two pins which are the first in the instructions to do? That's it?

What do you mean when you say the rear sensor has to swapped to + from the control unit? Is it just doing what you're saying above with swapping the pins or is this in addition to swapping the pins? Thanks!

I believe that's what you're doing when you are swapping the pins.

I forgot that you also have to switch the number 4 yellow wire coming out of the module harness that goes to pin 2 into the car harness with the number 3 white wire coming out of the module harness that goes to pin 5. So pin 2 and 5 are also swapped on the car harness.

Its been 9 months since I installed it on my car so my memory was a little foggy.

Good call.

OCKLASSE, have you installed it yet?

So were my instructions correct the way I explained them?

My wheels should be here next week. After I put them on, I might lower the car the final 5mm to the 2" complete drop final resting height. I won't be tucking but it will be nice and tight.
