Default EBCM Question

So the EBCM went out in my 2002 Coupe, it’s covered under my extended warranty so I had my shop just order a new one instead of screwing around getting that one repaired. I’ve asked them for the old one back, I have to believe there is some value in that to be rebuilt or maybe I’ll just have it repaired to have a spare. Any thoughts on that.

It looks like refurbed ones are selling for $800 to $1200 on eBay

What was the code? My understanding is that C1214 is about the only one repairable.

I thought that the EBCM was no longer available new.

I believe that is true for 97s through 2000’s, they said the one they ordered was an OEM unit, brand new. My car is a 2002.

You should have it repaired. There is a small number out there and most of the OEs will fail at some point. I know mine did.
