Faulty valve controller?

Just bought my f82 couple of months ago and just found a remote in the glovebox leading me to dig under the car to find a VSC-2. Looks to be connected correctly however when pressed the remote even though it lights up to show that it’s sending a signal the valves aren’t opening or closing? I’d assume maybe the controller is dead but valves open and close like regular when driving the car. Any ideas?

How is the SST controller compared to the other brands like BMS, CGP, Dahler, Macht Schnell, etc?

SST and Dahler are the same. The main difference is that Dahler has a higher-quality enclosure and remote. Whether that is worth the extra money is a personal choice; we have both in stock.

Im not familiar with Macht Schnell or CGP controllers. I dont think BMS offers a valve controller.

SST is by far the most popular and used controller at this time
