Brake Pressure Modulator Valve Replacement for Chevrolet Chevy C Silverado - 2WD 1999
Removal Procedure
- Remove the negative battery cable.
Important: Thoroughly wash all contaminants from around the electric hydraulic control unit (EHCU). The area around the EHCU MUST be free from loose dirt to prevent contamination of disassembled ABS components.
- Disconnect the three electrical harness connectors from the electronic brake control module (EBCM).
Important: Make sure that brake lines are tagged and kept in order for proper reassembly.
- Disconnect the 5 brake lines from the brake pressure modulator valve (BPMV). When looking at the brake pipe port face of the BPMV, the ports are assigned as follows:
| • | Upper Left--Left Front Output |
| • | Upper Middle--Right Front Output |
| • | Upper Right--Rear Output |
| • | Lower Left--Master Cylinder Secondary/Front Input |
| • | Lower Right--Master Cylinder Primary/Front Input |
- Remove the 3 bolts (4) securing the EHCU mounting bracket (3) to the frame rail (5).
- Remove the EHCU (1) from the vehicle.
- Remove the 2 bolts (4) securing the BPMV mounting bracket (3) to the BPMV (1).
- Disconnect the 2 way antilock brake system (ABS) pump motor connector.
- Remove the four T-25 Torx® bolts from the EBCM (2).
Important:
| • | Do not use a tool to pry the EBCM or the BPMV. Excessive force will damage the EBCM. |
| • | Do not reuse the EBCM mounting bolts. Always install new bolts. |
- Remove the EBCM (2) from the BPMV (1). Removal may require a light amount of force.
- Clean the EBCM to BPMV mounting surfaces with a clean cloth.
Installation Procedure
Important: Do not use RTV or any other type of sealant on the EBCM gasket or mating surfaces.
- Install the EBCM (2) onto the BPMV (1).
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
Important: Do not reuse the old mounting bolts. Always install NEW bolts with the new BPMV.
- Install the four EBCM bolts.

- Connect the 2 way ABS pump motor connector to the EBCM.
- Install the BPMV (1) to BPMV bracket (3).
- Install the BPMV to bracket retaining bolts (4).
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 9 N·m (7 lb ft).
