Is your cars ABS & traction control light on? Does your car beep at you three times during every start-up? Is your scan tool having trouble communicating with your ABS control unit?

If these symptoms are present, then usually replacing of the electronic ABS control unit, which is attached to the side of the hydraulic pump assembly in the engine compartment, is the fix for these symptoms. ECS Tuning does not guarantee that replacing of the ABS control module will repair your ABS system with these symptons, proper diagnosis of the ABS system still needs to be performed.

These OEM modules were just released by V/W & Audi as a repair prodecedure instead of replacing the very pricey pump assembly. In the past, in order to replace the eletronic portion of the ABS pump assembly, customers had to purchase the OEM assembly as a complete unit, most of the units are/were well over $1000.00. While these modules are not in-expensive, they are still very cost effective repair procedure compared to the price of the complete pump assemblys. Some of the complete pump assemblys were around the $2000 range in recent past.

Application Note
There are many pump assemblys on the A4/A6/S4/Passats. All have the part #'s are engraved on top of the pump assembly. You must know the part # off your pump assembly in order to order the correct repair module. There are 8 different repair modules, so it is important to know what your pump assemblys OEM part # is. Our website list what module you need to order, with what pump assembly. If you do not see your specific pump assemblies # or have any questions on applications for these modules, please contact us, we will be glad to help.
