Default Electronic bake controller question

Hi

My friend is having a problem and l was not able to help and thought maybe a fellow foum member could.

I have a question for you, my electronic brake controller went and they don't make the part anymore and two different companies could not rebuild it.. I was wondering if you still get on corvette forms if you could look for me, I have a 1998 corvette with traction control and active handling as well as abs, from what I am told very few cars were made with all these features

Thanks

Alan

Hi

Never ever had a problem with this and my friend said that because he has the active handling option along of course with the ABS and traction control, it's l believe the active handling has a different controller. His shop was unable to fix his and sent it out to 2 different places that said they can't fix it. Keepin mind it's a 1998.

I went from a 96 to an 02 and never had to do anything but regular maintenance.

I will go through the EBCM search's to see what l can find.

Thanks

You'll have to find one from one of the Corvette salvage places, GM no longer stocks them and nobody seem to repair the early ones.

Since it's a 98, does it have a front or rear mounted EBCM?

In the event that he has a front mounted EBCM, the parts manual indicates that a 98 (with JL4, JL9 front mounted aka "JAG"), and a 99 (with JL4,JL9)....are the same part number. If this is the case, there is a EBCM in the parts section....for a 99 with JL4.

Default On the right track

Thanks a lot my friend is on a list and he is #11 for the transplant. Found an older thread where we were able to get pointed in the right direction.

Thanks again
