Only the beginning, if it's an 01 or newer time to pull the EBCM out and fix the bad relay.

I reviewed your reply about your EBTCM module repair in another post last night.

These guys sound like they have their act together. They fixed your module when ABS Fixer wouldnt touch it.

Good find!

I agree Remove the EBTCM from the BPMV and send it off for repair OR attempt the repair your self.

Be careful when removing the module from the BPMV. DO NOT get agressive and pry from one area. You can SNAP off the electro magnetic coils off the circuit board:
