Common sense also takes advantage of a funny situation. Trust me 90% of my posts are done from a cell but, I at least try. Unless drunk.

I think COMMON SENSE would also dictate that when your asking for assistance with a problem, you would want it as clear and descriptive as possible.

But in reality, I think the OP is more intelligent than the post illustrates. He probably is upset and irrational because of the problem with the vehicle.......especially considering his screen name.


Oh and it was in fun !!

Seeing your comment would lead me to surmise that you are likely in the same age group as the OP. Common sense doesn't have anything to do with it. I know what he's trying to say but why should someone's posts need to be deciphered? Why do you find it necessary to defend his spelling and punctuation? Use of basic communication skills isn't too much to ask.

For dyno runs you want to turn off esc by holding down the tc button until it says esc off. This also might be a quick fix until you can have it looked at. Also, have you tried reseating all the fuses under the hood. Our hhrs are notorious for them to wiggle loose.

LAUNCH CONTROL displays in the DIC after the
COMPETITIVE MODE message, when the vehicle is
stopped. The system will exit to COMPETITIVE MODE
after the vehicle is launched. See “Competitive
Driving Mode” earlier in this section. The normal Traction
Control System (TCS) will not be operating while in
the Competitive Driving mode and the TCS light on the
instrument panel cluster comes on. Adjust your
driving accordingly. See DIC Warnings and Messages

(from the owners manual)

No no, pressing the button twice in quick succession will enter comp mode, holding it down turns the system off.
