Removal Procedure
Caution: Refer to Brake Fluid Irritant Caution in the Preface section.
Notice: Refer to Brake Fluid Effects on Paint and Electrical Components Notice in the Preface section.
Notice: To prevent equipment damage, never connect or disconnect the wiring
harness connection from the EBCM with the ignition switch in the ON
position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
- Remove the front fender upper diagonal brace. Refer to
Front Fender Upper Diagonal Brace Replacement
in Body Front End.
- Disconnect the accelerator and cruise control cable from the accelerator control cable bracket.
- Disconnect the cruise control module from the left strut tower. It is not necessary to remove the cable from the module. Refer to
Cruise Control Module Replacement
in Cruise Control. Position the module and
cables aside.
- Remove the air cleaner intake duct. Refer to

in Engine Controls - 3.1L.
- Disengage the red locking tab (1) from connector lock tab.
- Push down lock tab and then move sliding connector cover (2) to the open position.
- Disconnect the electronic brake control module (EBCM) harness connector.
- Remove any dirt/debris from the assembly.
- Remove the 4 EBCM to brake pressure modulator valve (BPMV) retainers.
Important: Do not pry apart using a tool. Be careful not to damage BPMV surface.
Important: Care must be taken not to damage the solenoid valves when the EBCM is removed from the BPMV.
- Separate the EBCM from the BPMV by gently pulling apart until separated.
Installation Procedure
- Install the EBCM to the BPMV.
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.
- Install the 4 retainers that attach the EBCM to BPMV.
Tighten
Tighten the retainers to 5 N·m (44 lb in).
- Connect the EBCM harness connector.
- Push down lock tab (1) and then move sliding connector cover (2) back in the home position to lock.
- Reengage the red locking tab (1) to the connected lock tab.
- Install the air cleaner intake duct. Refer to
