CAUTION: Before disassembling the ICU, the ICU must be thoroughly cleaned. This must be done to prevent dirt particles and debris from entering into vital areas of the ICU.

6. Thoroughly clean all surfaces of the ICU and brake tubes. Use only a solvent such as Mopar(R) Brake Parts Cleaner or equivalent.

7. Disconnect the 47-way connector from the antilock brake module (ABM) by depressing the tabs on each side of the connector cover (Figure 1), then pulling outward and upward on the lower half of the cover until it locks into position pointing straight outward. The connector can then be pulled straight outward off the ABM (Figure 2).
