Guys, as far a I know ALL these modules have the EXACT same guts, just labeled different. I believe one company makes them for H&R, Kleemann, Carlsson, etc. and then they get private labeled.

Correction, Carlsson manufactures its own lowering module. Brabus, Kleemann, Lorinser and Renntech are not manufactured in house.

Renntech module function switch
My apology, I misstated the function of the rotary switch selector, it is not OFF vs. AirMatic vs. ABC, but rather:
*** Position 0 (LED is steadily ON):
Lowering module disabled, car is in Stock height
*** Position 1 (LED blinks, module active):
Any vehicle with 3 height sensors. This also means the installer had to cut either 3 or 6 wires.
*** Position 2 (LED blinks, module active):
ANY vehicle with 4 height sensors. This also means the installer had to cut 4 wires.
NOTE: This DOES NOT simply mean only ABC as wrongly mentioned. For example 251 chassis (R) is an AirMatic but has 4 sensors, therefore is also using function position 2.
