Getting busy this evening. Second hand marching ABS pump module arrived today. My plan being that I’ll detach the ECU from my unit, and bolt it to the other pump and motor unit. Hoping that this way, the ABS ECU will talk to my vehicle without the use of VCDS. I
l be honest. Apart from losing a screw and a nut into the undertray, everything has gone to plan. And I’ve just started the car, left it running for a bit and no ABS lights illuminated, so I’m guessing no diag issues. I’ve also pressurised the system with the larger input pipes connected, which purged the system. With everything tightened up, I pressurised it a second time, and no leaks. So……I’ll bleed all 4 wheels tomorrow, and cross my fingers I have brakes again.
Ive also changed the PCV valve again to a better quality unit. Somebody has told me a bad PCV will not help warm start failures. I was pretty surprised to see the stem of the PCV misshapen. Like the pinch clamp I e used has squashed it. Did not expect that.
Anyway, I’ll be busy again tomorrow night.
