Caution: To help avoid personal injury, due to a retained load on the brake modulator, the Gear Tension Relief function of the scan tool must be performed prior to removal of the ABS brake modulator assembly.
Notice: Do not allow gear to turn while removing the retaining nut, since the modulator piston can hit the top of the modulator bore, damaging the piston. Place a screwdriver through the holes in the gears (not between the gears) into the recessed hole in the modulator base. This will prevent the gear from turning, aiding in gear removal.
Important: Do not repair damaged motor packs or brake modulators. Other than modulator drive gears replacement, repair of the motor pack and brake modulator assemblies is not authorized. Do not oil or lubricate the gears on the motor pack.
Important: Use care when handling the motor pack. Replace the motor pack if the motor pack is dropped or damaged during handling.

Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 8.5 N·m (76 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.
Rotating the modulator gears will cause the following conditions:
• | The pistons on the ABS brake modulator will be positioned very close to the top of the modulator bore. |
• | The brake bleeding procedure is simplified. |
Important: Use care when handling the motor pack. Replace the motor pack if the motor pack is dropped or damaged during handling. |
