So the controller doesn't stop the lowering at 60? I hooked mine up today and put my rims on and it lowered at 60, but I thought it was because I didn't hook up the speed controller portion. What's the purpose of the speed controller hook up if not that?
......and yes, I tore up a bit of my tire because of this, ugghhh!!!

I'm having problems with mine. For some reason the driver side is maximum height and rear is medium height. Both passenger sides are tucked and the rear has a lot of stress and pressure on it. I don't know how to fix it. If any of you guys are in orange county or near. I will pay to help fix it. I can't drive it right now because of this problem. PM me thanks

Fixed my issues which was a loose pink wire.
Will ^ check the dsc for loose wires that connect into the plug heads. It can happen which it did to me and luckily that was all. It caused raised height afs light to go off.
Lmk now you make out bud.

Problem fixed
I fixed mine differently. I set it to the perfect setting and then turned off the car. I then unplugged the wires and turned the car back on again for a minute and let the AFS light blink. Turned off the car and plugged the wires to the controller back in and started the car once again. Problem is now fixed!

Not level.
I have some new insight on the rear suspension. I had always wondered why on my datasystem controller, on the valve screen, that all the indicator bars for the height of the car are not even. I had thought that the datasystem overrides my manual adjustment via twisting the tie rods for the front and slide bar for the rear sensors. Now I came to realize that any manual sensors settings are in addition to the datasystem settings. I played around today and found that I can drastically lower my car more by sliding the rear sensor bar to the extreme. So my normal driving 5 setting is way more lower (simular to a 7 setting). and when changed to a 7 setting, now is more like a 9 setting.
So when we give each other hints on what settings we are driving at, its pretty much a crap shoot as our sensor setting could be anywhere from normal to extreme. I thought I just throw this out there.

Can I:
1. Adjust the stiffness of the shock via the DataSytem (from what I've been reading it doesn't look like it)?
2. Adjust the shock stiffness anywhere else?
3. Manually (not through controller) level the back like in your picture, independently
4. Manually (not through controller) level the front independently
I thank anyone and everyone in advanced for your help. I love this form!

if your height is uneven due to the stupid (i mean really awesome) datasystems controller the only thing that i have found to fix it is to hit the left down button to have it flash at you to change all 4 of the height settings then put it up 1 or 2 (right side up button) then hit the left bottom button again to lock in the setting. once it has adjusted to this new height and stopped flashing, then reverse the process to set it back at your original lower height setting. once it stops this usually puts them back in sync... also make sure the car is on flat level ground..
this is why i really hate my UL w/ controller... sometimes mine gets all out of sync and it is annoying to fix...
also to reset it all together if you hold the left up button down while the car is off hold the button down and then turn the car on... this puts it back to the first screen where you have to select the celsior > mc choice (if you have an 04-06 ls430) (in japanese it looks something like this """"""" UCF31MC]" セルシオ """""""" then you can select super down mode or regular down mode...
also i used to unplug the smaller plug out of the back and leave it unplugged for a minute or two with the car running and all 4 valve corners will flash then i would plug it back in and raise it up one and then lower it down one to try to get all 4 even again.
good luck man.
