Ignition off
Expose the ABS control module. See PREPARATIONS FOR REPLACEMENT
Disconnect the ABS control module: First press in the catches on the rear of the cover (towards the wheel arch). Then carefully turn the cover upwards so that the lock catches release
Check the control module and control module connectors to ensure that the male and female terminals are undamaged and secure (cannot be pressed in). Check that the cables to the female terminals are secured to the terminal pins
In particular, check the terminal pins relevant to the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) / symptom. See SIGNAL SPECIFICATION, ABS CONTROL MODULE
Connect adapter see 9511354 to the control module connector (wiring side). Connect breakout box see 9511428 to the adapter
The breakout box is designed to facilitate reading off the control module input and output signals when the control module is connected; and cable and component resistance when the control module is disconnected. The use of a breakout box reduces the risk of accidental short-circuits and damage to the connector pins.
