Removal Procedure

    Object Number: 240672 Size: SH
  1. Disconnect the Brake Solenoid Valve Electrical connector.
  2. Remove the Torx® head bolts (1).
  3. Remove the Solenoid (2).

    4. Important: Verify that the brake solenoid valve lip seal (3) is still attached to the brake solenoid valve (2) when removing the brake solenoid valve. If the seal is not attached, inspect the brake solenoid valve bore in the brake modulator.

    Important: Do not attempt to disassemble the brake solenoid valve. The brake solenoid valve is serviceable only as an assembly.

Installation Procedure

    Object Number: 240672 Size: SH
  1. Use the following procedure in order to install the brake solenoid valve lip seal (3):
    2. 1.1. Lubricate the seal on the new brake solenoid valve with clean brake fluid.
    1.2. Verify that the brake solenoid valve lip seal is properly positioned before installing the brake solenoid valve in the ABS brake modulator.
  2. Position the brake solenoid valve (2) so that the brake solenoid valve electrical connector will face the same direction before it was removed.
  3. By hand, press down firmly on the brake solenoid valve (2) until the brake solenoid valve flange seats on the ABS brake modulator.
  4. Install the Torx® head bolts (1).

    5. Tighten
    Tighten the solenoid Torx® head bolts to 5 N·m (44 lb in).

    Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

    Important: Verify proper installation of the brake solenoid valve connectors on the correct brake solenoid valve.

  5. Install the brake solenoid valve electrical connector onto the brake solenoid valve.
  6. Bleed the brake modulator/motor pack assembly. Refer to Bleeding Brake Hydraulic System in Brakes.
  7. Perform the Diagnostic System Check .
