Have decided to try to take the unit out and send it to be refurbished by ABS fixer. Can someone who has already done this give me an exact list of the tools needed to get this thing unbolted and unplugged.Doesnt seem to be much room to maneuver any sockets or wrenches. Thanks

All the instructions needed on the absfixer website. The only unusual thing is the torx screwdriver needed.

I just got this code for the first time.

I charged my battery and pulled off the connector and cleaned with electronics parts cleaner.
No more code
