So I just bought my car this past weekend and I love it. It's amazing. But here's the problem when I got it and drove it home the tems worked fine. It was switching between the second and third holes fine when i had it in sport mode. Then the next time I drove it (still in sport mode) only the first light would stay on even when I dropped it and took faster turns. Whats the problem? :/

Probably the first thing you should do is check to make sure the TEMS system is even engaging. To do this, with the car off, turn the key to the "ON" position without starting the car, then cycle through the buttons on the TEMS controller. If TEMS is working as it should, you will hear an audible "click" after selecting between NORMAL and SPORT modes. If you do not hear this click (will sound like it's coming from the back of the car), then you have a problem somewhere between the controller and the TEMS computer, which would include wiring.
If your TEMS controller seems to be working correctly, follow the directions on the Cygnus website for troubleshooting active driving with TEMS. If there is a problem with the sensors then it will not switch modes when accelerating/decelerating or in tight turns (freeway ramps are good for testing TEMS this way). You can then proceed to the ohmmeter to source out the cause of the trouble.

Alright thank you for the reply. But I decided to just get ride of tems and go with a different more reliable setup.
