Default Need help with ECBM

I have a used pump and EBCM with ABS-5/TCS/MSVA/AH on it. The one on my car only has ABS-5/TCS/AH. Will the used unit work on my car? And what does MSVA stand for. I planned to install the used unit on my 2000 and what will I have to do to bleed the system if this unit works at all. I'm getting all the codes telling me the BPMV is my problem.

If I remember correctly they stand for Traction Control System, Active Handling, and Magnetic Steering Variable Assist. Sounds like the unit you got is off of an older 'Vette where the EBCM is in the rear behind the differential. Not sure if it will work or not. You are better off sending your unit out to ABSFIXER.com spend the $150 and know it will work. You don't need to worry about cracking any lines open if you are just removing the EBCM. If you take the pump out too, you will need to perform an automated bleed with a tech 2 scan tool, followed by a manual bleed.

Thanks. I purchased the used pump with the EBCM attached to it. I think I only need the pump itself. Hope the pump will work on my car. Actually it came off a 99 model.
