Are there any off-camera shoe extension cords that allow the SF-58 to be fully functional?

Yes. The Nikon SC-28 or SC-29 cable has the same pin locations that Leica uses. The SF-58 functions perfectly when used with the cable.

Hi.. I had the same problem with S2 and could not figure it out.. however after several on off attempts I find that it works correctly all the time now. I wonder if there is a possible conflict of data in the SC-28 on first contact which corrects itself through data flow. much like a PC warming up..?
