New Spings on my X6M. How do I turn off the dampening malfunction light?

I put new H&R springs on my X6M this week. The dampening control sensor won't go off and goes on randomly. Can I turn it off from my Idrive? By the way dropped it 2" in the front and 1.2 in the rear. "MAGIC SPRINGS"!!

You should not have any sensors going off! H&R springs in the front and adjustable lowering links in the rear?

Do you have H&R springs on your ride? I don't know why I get the sensor going off everyday I drive my car. It feels fine just want the light to stop appearing. Thanks Cody

Yes I have the 2" lowering kit on mine! Sounds like you need to pay a visit to the dealer.

My boys out here in Los Angeles. RENNSPEC.com they do a lot of my performance upgrades. I didn't really consult them before hands just because they were so confident over the phone. Plus they got the springs and installed them for $500.00 flat.

So I took the ride in today. All it was was a link on the front driver side that connects to the sensor telling it its height. Thank god it was an easy issue. No more EDC code! Hope nobody else has this issue. If so very easy fix!
