Corsa Xtreme - Active Exhaust Potential Issue?

[KT3]

Hey everyone! I have a corsa xtreme exhaust (21001) with valves…

Did a pull the other day, and about an hour later got a pop up “mode selection not available) or something a long those lines - and exhaust moved to normal.

I’ve actually seen this before - and after switching back to “Track” mode, car was fine, no pop ups.

Not sure if it’s in my head, but i feel like the valves are opening and closing by themselves (but no pop ups) when i’m on throttle.. Is this possible or am i delusional?

Whenever i pull over to check, i can see the “butterfly flaps” are “open” fully….

Is there anyway to know for sure? Would my dash be saying “mode not available” if these flaps were indeed opening and closing slightly themselves?

Is it worth recalibrating or changing fuses or anything in good faith anyway? I’ve had the cat back for about 4 years , and it’s paired with the xtreme headers.

I would assume the amount of pressure of doing a pull is probably going to upset the flaps here and there…

Thanks!

Fairly common to have a short in the harness that connects the active valves. That harness will rub against the body seam if I remember right, short the connection and pop the fuse rendering it useless.

You'll need to fix the wiring or buy a new harness, wire tie it out of the way and put in a new fuse.
