No idea what you are even referring to at all.
The ABS ECU (Electronic Control Unit) on a 2006 Cadillac CTS is typically located under the hood, near the brake master cylinder. It is mounted on the driver's side of the engine compartment, often attached to the ABS pump assembly. You may need to remove some covers or components for better access to the ECU. Always consult the vehicle's service manual for specific details and safety precautions.
My dealer says the ABS modulator is bad. He is ordering this $1100 part and it should fix the problems. Fortunately it is under warrenty. Without the fix, the ABS will not work.
on a rhd it is behind the panel, which is below the glove box on the passenger side
ECU just tells the car what to do, when. its the brain. it usually deals with the engine, transmission, and other passive driving things like ABS and traction control. Very useful ECU programmer (Vipprogrammer.com) is used for reading and programming ECU content of eeprom file (or ROM memory with maps if eeprom physically not present).
Under bonnet, behind battery is a plastic black cover. remove it and U will c 2 boxes with a thick loom coming out of them. the one box is the ECU the other smaller is the ABS box
It only comes as one whole unit. and yes you will need to replace it as one
Had same problem, you have to replace the ABS Module. You can take it to the mechanic for about $1,200+ or this web site http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GM-CHEVY-PU-SUV-ABS-EBCM-COMPUTER-ECU-MODULE-REBUILD-/390263833938?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5add898552
engine computer is located under the dashbord, to the left of the steering column. The ECU and the ABS computer are mounted in the same carrier, the ABS computer is outbord of the engine computer. the engine computer is the one closest to the kickpannel.
SBC (as Mercedies Sensortronic) Does not use Hydrolic presure provided from the driver to apply the brakes it instead uses a pump and valves to apply normal braking ABS is (straight through) under normal driving. this means when you press the pedal you create the hydrolic presure that directly applies the brakes such as in a conventional system. But when you brake hard and enter lock up condition a ecu controls valves and a pump that isolate the pedal from the brakes to control wheel slip. This is why in some cars the pedal pulsates when the abs is preventing lockup. Under ABS ECU fault condition normal braking is maintained but wheel lockup will not be prevented
You will need to run a diagnostics test on it. If you don't have one take it to a garage to reset it. It may well be faulty but most of the time its just dirty sensors that result in a misreading ECU. Another common fault is the 40amp fuse on the ABS circuit - this is under the bonnet next to the battery, NOT in the dashboard fusebox. After a number of years this can crack, leading to an intermittent loss of power to the ABS pump (which the ECU if read will report as an ABS Hydraulic Pump failure). So check all the strip fuses there and replace if necessary. Note that even if it's something simple like the fuse, you may still need to reset the ABS warning light either at a garage or with your own diagnostic tool if you have one.
