Electronic Brake Control Module: Locations









The control unit is fitted in the right-hand front side of the luggage compartment with 4 ball pins. These four ball pins also serve to hold the control unit cover in place. A rubber seal is used to provide sealing of the cover. The control units may be identified by the part number and by a self-adhesive sticker with a colored edge.
ABS 5 - Sticker with black edge.
ABS 5/ ABD - Sticker with yellow edge.

NOTE: To keep the plugging cycles of the control unit plug as low as possible, the control unit was located in a suitable position. The plug needs not be pulled off for diagnostics or system tests.
