The Xineering scan tool is designed to plug into the OBDII port and a computer via USB port.
The Xineering software can then be run to test/obtain values directly from your vehicle.
Scanner: Software example:
The Xineering magneride delete, whether plug-in resistors or the OBD/SS, operates on certain parameters with your vehicle. In particular, voltages running to the sensors at all 4 corners.
I cannot say for certain, but I believe the range is 0.5-4.75 volts. If more or less current runs through the circuit outside of those parameters, then a "Service Suspension System" message should occur along with a stored DTC. Eventhough an OBD/SS may be plugged in, the 4 corners and the points of contact are still vulnerable. There are plug-in "caps" that are sold. I have my unused (since Fox shocks are not plugged in) ride height sensors "capped" with my old Xineering resistors. They are then wrapped with cold weather tape and I check them from time to time.
It may be easier to work if you remove the wheel well liners. Particularly in the rear. I would suggest checking all connections and then securing all wires best you can. Zip ties are okay to use. You can even check the connections with a volt meter to make sure you have proper current running at all 4 corners. More effort than plugging in the Xineering scanner, but pretty much gives you similar data.
NOTE: The plugs for the resistors have an interior, small clip; depending on who did the install of the resistors, the OE sensor plugs may be damaged...this could also be leading to poor connections and/or bad voltages.
