Default TEIN FLEX EDFC error code

I got a error code on my EDFC unit, 3 lights go on and it reads Front 08 Rear EL, My question is it o.k. to drive my Z if i just turn off the EDFC unit or do i need to leave it alone till i find the problem, Or what do i need to do, I checked i dont see anything disconnected, Is the motor connection maybe disconnected from the unit or the motor went out?

just call Tein at 562-861-9161 or email them sales@tein.com, since nobody seems to know.

In the instruction manual that came with your edfc towards the back of the booklet there is a list of error codes i cant recall off hand what yours is for but it comes down to a connection being bad to one of the sensors typically not a problem if you cant find your instruction book pm me and ill see if i can find one.

I called Tein, since no response, I checked and something in the rear must of gotten disconnected. I will take it back to the shop so they can give it a look through.

Call Tein before 4pm,. They leave early.


I had a similar problem and they just gave me a new EDFC control unit. The Tein guys rock =P

Well just got back from the shop, They pin pointed the problem, It was the head unit, They swapped out the head unit and theirs worked, I kept on getting the error code Rear EL and it doesnt change, So they told me talk to tein to see if they can replace, Any one know who i can talk to at tein to hook me up? I hope its still under warranty?
