Default Computer issues....any suggestions?

a friends 99 is having some electrical problems, a mechanic says his computer that runs the abs is gone and they cannot get them anymore for some reason??? I am thinking it might be the ECBM but just guessing on that...anyone know if you can still get the computer that handles the ABS ??? any info would be appreciated

You need to post the DTC codes to help determine if it is the EBCM or some other component causing the problem.

I emailed the guy and asked about the 2000 specifically.

If you read it it was for a 2000. Not sure if it will apply to a 99.

oh, I read it alright but it wouldnt be the first time an ebay seller lied or was wrong about what he was selling would it? as mentioned above, this would be the first time a solution for the 00 ebcm issue has surfaced and as an 00 owner this is a big deal so its worth checking.

hope thats cool with you
