ABS Module Removal
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Just removed the ABS Module from my wife's 2001 XK8 to do the module repair. Unfortunately I had to remove the 4 brake lines from the valve body to free the unit.
My question is when I go to reinstall the module AM I GOING TO HAVE TO BLEED THE BRAKES or am I ok to go with it?
What do you think? Thanks in advance.

The usual sequence of bleeding any car's brakes is to start at the wheel furthest from the master cylinder, and move closer. RR LR RF LF. Pump the brakes slowly when bleeding them......My 2 cents........Mike

I just did the same job. first I fixed the module. I has to cut open the case to get out the circuit board and re-solder the broken solder connection to the power pins. I then silicone the module case back together. After remounted the ABS unit I tried it without bleeding and it worked OK but the pedal was a little soft. I then used my wife to press the brake pedal on command an first bled the lines at the ABS module until the fluid ran clear. I added new Pentosin fluid to flush the system at the same time. The I bled each wheel until the fluid ran clear. After doing all 4 the brakes were hard and firm. Better than when I got the car! Bleeding the brakes is well worth doing if you open the system
