Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Module

The ABS module is attached to the HCU and is the electronic control unit for all of the ABS and stability control systems. The ABS module monitors all sensor inputs and all HS-CAN messages that relate to ABS and stability control, then directly controls the solenoid valves and the hydraulic pump motor in the HCU.

The ABS module can be serviced separately from the HCU. When a new ABS module is installed, it must be programmed with the vehicle configuration information.Refer to: Module Configuration - System Operation and Component Description .

When an ABS or stability control system fault has been corrected or a new component has been installed, the ABS module must be calibrated. The calibration procedures are required for the brake system to operate correctly. stability control sensors to learn the zero-position of the vehicle which means the vehicle must be on a level surface and not moving.

There are 4 calibration routines that must be performed:

• Interactive Vehicle Dynamics (IVD) Initialization
• Multi-Calibration
• Inlet Valve Calibration
• Master Cylinder Isolation Calibration

All 4 routines are carried out using a diagnostic scan tool, make sure to follow all diagnostic scan tool directions  .
