Removal Procedure
  1. Disconnect the battery negative cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection in Engine Electrical.
  2. Remove the electrical connector.
  3. Remove the bolts that fasten the EBCM to the BPMV.

    4. Notice: Do not use a tool to pry the EBCM from the BPMV. Excessive force will damage the EBCM.

  4. Remove the EBCM from the BPMV. Removal may require a light amount of force.
  5. Clean the BPMV with a clean, dry cloth.

Installation Procedure

Important: 

   • After installation, calibrate the new EBCM to the tire size / wheelbase and Hydraboost or Hydramax Systems. Refer to Scan Tool Output Controls in Hydraulic Brakes.
   • If the EBCM mounting bolts are corroded or damaged, do not reuse the old mounting bolts. Install new EBCM mounting bolts with the new EBCM.
   • Do not use RTV or any other type of sealant on the EBCM to BPMV mating surface.

  1. Install the EBCM to the BPMV.

    2. 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.

  2. Install the EBCM bolts.

    3. Tighten
    Tighten the bolts to 5 N·m (44 lb in) in an X-pattern.

  3. Connect the electrical connectors to the EBCM.
  4. Connect the negative battery cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection in Engine Electrical.
  5. Revise the tire calibration / wheelbase and Hydraboost or Hydramax System. Refer to Scan Tool Output Controls in Hydraulic Brakes.
