Anyone know what the warranty is on buying a rebuilt EBCM from Brandon? Anyone hear from Brandon in the last week or two? I've been trying to get in touch with him. Hope everything is OK.

He did a fix for me about two weeks ago. About a week turn around. Not sure about the warranty but it saved me some $$$!

If you have not bought already check out Autoecu. Prices are better than ABSFixer.

I did this for a friend 6 months ago and it is still working fine I figure if he gets 1 yr it was worth the 150.00 bucks and if he gets 2 yrs he will have sold the car. No big deal it is better then paying gobbs of money to the STEALER for something as little as this part.

Good to hear of the other sources for this repair. Don't need it yet, but you never know when you might.

I had mine repaired by Brandon at ABSFIXER and it works great, Before I sent it to him I did my homework and checked around, There are some on eBay that start at 40 bucks for the repair, I talked to a few of them and after Talking to Brandon he was the one to fix mine, He was very professional on the phone and answered all my questions and from the time it left my hands and back to me was less than a week turnaround.

Thanks for the input with other places performing rebuilds. I bought a rebuilt EBCM from Brandon 1.5 years ago and now its acting up after only 1000 mi. I've left 2 phone messages with Brandon and 2 emails in the last couple weeks and haven't gotten a response yet.

I had to buy a completely rebuilt one from Brandon (ABS Fixer) about two years ago because my ABS was giving off a code that could not not be fixed. The rebuilt ones are better because he ads a safety mechanism in there so they don't burn out. Since then I have never had a problem and he warranties the module as long as you own the car. Great guy to work with!!!!

Thats why I had to buy a rebuilt unit. The warranty does me no good since I can't get in touch with him.
