Just a note about doing this. I appears that some may be under the mistaken impression that the only thing that ever goes wrong with the Traction Control/ Active Handeling System is that the EMCM goes bad. That is definitly not the case. A bunch of things will put the system out of service (bad or misconnected wheel speed sensors, a bad ground point somewhere, a bad steering position sensor, heck even at times electrical glitches from a bad battery or charging system fault).
Your best bet is to get the problem properly diagnosed, (either by pulling the dic codes and posting here, or by taking it to a qualified mechanic ) and if it is the ebcm, then absfixer is the best thing to do.
Just posted because it seemed some thought that sending the ebcm out will be the answer to any problem they have with the TC/AH System.

Good info!
Coincidentally, I had replaced my 7 year old battery, just 2 weeks before this happened. I've read of the same sequence of events happening to another member. Electrical spike, perhaps?

I'm going to pull this module tomorrow using the instructions above - should I disconnect the battery and/or pull the fuses first?

No need to disconnect the battery ! Make sure you bag and tie the connectors down tight if you wanna drive it while the unit is out.
I found that my 24" flexible Snap-on screwdriver with a magnetic apex holder to keep the torx bit in place made the install a snap. The screws arn't ferrous and won't stay attached to the driver but not having to lay on the fenders made me feel better. Cleared the codes and "good to go".

Dave,
Wonderful and complete instructions
It would be beneficial if you could request a Mod to include this on the Tech Section FAQ's.
