Default New ABS and EBCM

With active handling I have the 1255H C code should I just install the EBCM or the full pump with it and if I do install the pump what is the process?

Unfortunately, you can't buy a new EBCM for a '98.

P1255 means failed EBCM??

I also have a 98 and I suggest you take a look at this link. EBCM are a problem for C5 guys but this link gives us some hope. Chuck has a GREAT reputation here on the forum. Call him first and talk with him about the headache.

To try to answer your question, I had the 1255 code, and it was just the control module, not the pump. Best of luck.

I have the 1255 code for a long time now, but the abs still works fine.

Be sure to Excercise it occassionally with a hard ABS activating stop, as it can get dried out and malfunction from non use over time.

I do few an ABS activated stops in a row once a week to keep all the internals working properly.
