Removal Procedure
Refer to BRAKE FLUID IRRITANT WARNING .
Refer to CAUTION: EFFECTS OF BRAKE FLUID ON PAINT AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS .
WARNING:
Always connect or disconnect the wiring harness connector from the EBCM/EBTCM with the ignition switch in the OFF position. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the EBCM/EBTCM.
- Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
- Without draining the coolant or removing the hoses, remove and position aside the radiator surge tank. Refer to RADIATOR SURGE TANK REPLACEMENT (LAU) or RADIATOR SURGE TANK REPLACEMENT (LF1) .
-
NOTE: Lift the dash panel insulator slightly to remove the upper master cylinder heat shield nut.
If equipped with the master cylinder heat shield, remove the master cylinder heat shield nuts (1).
- Remove the master cylinder heat shield bolt (1).
- Remove the master cylinder heat shield.
- Disconnect the electronic brake control module (EBCM) electrical connector.
- Disconnect the left rear brake pipe fitting (1) at the brake pressure modulator valve (BPMV).
- Cap the brake pipe fitting and plug the BPMV outlet port to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination.
- Disconnect the right rear brake pipe fitting (2) from the BPMV.
- Cap the brake pipe fitting and plug the BPMV outlet port to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination.
- Disconnect the master cylinder secondary brake pipe fitting (1) from the BPMV.
- Cap the brake pipe fitting and plug the BPMV inlet port to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination.
- Disconnect the left front brake pipe fitting (2) from the BPMV.
- Cap the brake pipe fitting and plug the BPMV inlet port to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination.
- Disconnect the right front brake pipe fitting (1) from the BPMV.
- Cap the brake pipe fitting and plug the BPMV outlet port to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination.
- Disconnect the master cylinder primary brake pipe fitting (2) from the BPMV.
- Cap the brake pipe fitting and plug the BPMV inlet port to prevent brake fluid loss and contamination.
- Remove the BPMV bracket nuts (1).
- Remove the BPMV and bracket assembly.
- If necessary, remove the BPMV bracket bolts (1).
- Remove the BPMV bracket (1).
- Inspect the insulators for damage and replace, if necessary.
- If necessary, remove the EBCM. Refer to ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT .
