Default TCS problems - time for ABSFixer?

So a while back I got the Service traction control, active handling, and ABS message on my dash in my 02 z06 but now Im finally getting around to it. I cleared the codes out and drove the car about 10-15 miles and read what was wrong. I got C1214 HC which after googling said

C1214 Sol Valve Relay Contact or Coil CKT Open

Does this mean the EBCM needs to come out and be sent to ABS Fixer? I have no idea where to even start with this. Thanks for the help and I apologize if there was a thread already on this.

If you have a 1214 DTC thats the protocal. There are other people who have stepped up to the EBTCM repair Plate and they do the same job for $50.

SIX screws and two connectors and its out!

I had the exact same problem last month. I sent mine to ABSfixer and am very happy with the result.
