ABS and Traction Control

Observe the following general precautions during any DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES service. Failure to adhere to these precautions may result in DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES system damage.
^ Disconnect the EBCM harness connector before performing electric welding procedures.
^ Carefully note the routing of the DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES wiring and wiring components during removal. The DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES components are extremely sensitive to EMI (electromagnetic interference). Proper mounting is critical during component service.
^ Do not use a quick charger for engine starting or for battery charging with the battery still connected. Brake failure or DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES component damage may result.
^ Disconnect the battery with the ignition OFF.
^ Disconnect the EBCM connector with the ignition OFF.
^ Do not attempt to repair the BPMV or any other non serviceable DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES components where noted. Many DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES components are serviceable by component replacement only.
^ Do not hang the suspension components from the wheel speed sensor cables. The cables may be damaged.
^ Do not subject the EBCM to temperatures of more than 85°C (184°F).
^ Do not use petroleum based fluids in the master cylinder. Do not use any containers previously used for petroleum based fluids. Petroleum causes swelling and distortion of the rubber components in the hydraulic brake system, resulting in water entering the system and lowering the fluid boiling point.
^ After service, inspect the DRP/ABS/TCS/VSES system using a scan tool.
