Default abs fixer
Hi,
Anyone ever use the company absfixer.com?
Have a 99 abs module that needs repair. We were referred to them but so far no luck in contacting them via phone or email just yet. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced them.
thanks, Tom

They will only fix the 2001 and newer abcm's. The '97 to 2000 are not fixable and not made anymore. Plenty of post about this here on the forum.

Sadly, if you have a C5 that predates an 01, you are out of luck.

They resolder the bad points in the unit and replace the relay if needed. You can do this yourself for about $5.00 in parts if you care to try. There are plenty of posts about how to do this on the forum

Are you absolutely certain, that the EBCM is bad?

Hi guys,
Thanks for all the responses. Ya the guys at absfixer did get back to me and as stated they do not and cannot fix the 99 abs module. Looks like we are out of luck for that.

Thought that was "eight minute abs", not six.
