What do EMCB & ECUB mean?
If you're asking about the electronic brake control module- 2000 and older, no one can repair them and junkyards are the only source. 2001 and newer G7 computers or ABSfixer.com are probably the most common repair options.
There is also a thread about converting from the old system to the newer one.

There are only used units now, and you have to be sure you look for the right one. Very early cars have a unit mounted in the back of the car — not sure if there are multiple variants of that unit, but middle user cars have non-repairable units in the engine compartment, with two variants, M code and V code. Later years are also front mounted and are sometimes repaired. I am not sure on the later car variants.

There are ways to fix the early EBCM if the faulty part is on the top board. This has been beat to death. The bottom board is the issue. You can search on which codes are fixable. I have a Model V control module laying around from a former car. The orginal owner gave me a lot of spare parts....If anyone is close to NJ and wants to see if it works on your car let me know..If it works for you then I will sell for $450. I currently have two C5s but neither can use this part as one has Model M and the other is a 2001....Just an option for anyone out there where you can save a few bucks...

It will be labeled on the top of the unit. I just ordered one from a recycle yard, $1,7500.00!! If it goes bad again, I’ll just drive the car with no ABS of traction control. It’s too bad no one can repair, or remanufacture these.
Maybe it’s time to go to a C6 ZO6 !

In front of the engine on the driver side, look down and see the mass of brake lines under the alternator.

There are tons of videos on youtube-go there and search C5 ECBM removal. Watch the video's. You'll need a T25 long bit if I remember correctly as the screws that hold it onto the main brake unit are recessed somewhat.
