ISTA-D says rear EDC not connected?

Hi

I've been trying to diagnose my suspension, as it has been feeling rough lately. To my surprise, while poking around in ISTA-D, it says that the rear EDC sensors are not connected.. how is it so, when the car doesn't have any trouble codes?

Does anyone know how I might go about checking the physical connections? I know that the EDC control module is near the battery, but when checking I didn't know what I was looking at.

I don't have a jack to be able to inspect the rear shocks, or the connections behind the liner, but does it look acceptable from the picture? (not sure if they are leaking or just dirty, plus lots of corrosion)

Thanks in advance.

In my unprofessional opinion, the corrosion at the solenoid in the picture probably means it has been compromised somehow, and needs replacement.

That doesn't explain why all four show as no signal though. Might be worth checking the wiring at the EDC control unit which I think is next to the battery?

It's worth asking: ik999], are you the original owner?
