INSTALLATION

  1. Align ABM solenoids and pump/motor wiring connector (4) with HCU valves (2) and connector passage. Slide ABM (1) onto HCU (3).
  2. Install three screws (2) attaching ABM (1) to HCU. Tighten screws to 2 N.m (17 in. lbs.) torque.
  3. Position assembly (5) above mounting grommets (8) and press mounting bracket into place.
  4. Clip brake tube (3) to routing clip (4) below Fuse And Relay Center.
  5. Clip brake tubes (1, 2 and 10) to two routing clips (6) along upper radiator support.
  6. Connect 47-way wiring connector (5) at ABM (6).
  7. Connect battery negative cable (2) to battery post. It is important that this is performed properly. «(Refer to ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYSTEM - STANDARD PROCEDURE)»(ref-255942-S09733478822007060500000)
  8. Perform Diagnostic Verification Test and clear any faults. «(Refer to BRAKES - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)»(ref-255955-S02454397432007060500000)

Scheme 21: DESCRIPTION

The Antilock Brake Module (ABM) is a microprocessor-based device which monitors the Antilock Brake System (ABS) during normal braking and controls it when the vehicle is in an ABS stop. The ABM also monitors the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) if so equipped.

The ABM (1) is mounted to the HCU (2) as part of the Integrated Control Unit (ICU). The ABM uses a 47-Way connector on the vehicle wiring harness. The power source for the ABM is through the ignition switch in the RUN or ON position. The ABM is on the CAN-C bus.

REMOVAL

  1. Disconnect negative battery cable.
  2. Disconnect ECM electrical connectors (1).
  3. Remove ECM bracket to inner fender retaining nuts (5).
  4. Remove ECM and bracket assembly from vehicle.
  5. Separate ECM from bracket.
  1. Install ECM on bracket (3).
  2. Position ECM and bracket assembly in vehicle.
  3. Install ECM bracket to inner fender retaining nuts (5).
  4. Connect ECM electrical connectors (1).
  5. Connect negative battery cable.

The Front Control Module (FCM) is a micro controller based module located in the right front corner of the engine compartment. The front control module mates to the power distribution center to form the Integrated Power Module (IPM). The IPM connects directly to the battery and provides the primary means of circuit protection and power distribution for all vehicle electrical systems. The FCM controls power to some of these vehicle systems electrical and electromechanical loads based on inputs received from hard wired switch inputs and data received on the CAN bus circuit.

CAUTIONThe Memory Seat Module (MSM) mounting tabs can be damaged during module installation. Use care to properly align tabs to prevent binding that could result in tab breakage.

  1. Place the Memory Seat Module (MSM) (4) into position making sure the mounting tabs are properly aligned with the front bracket.
  2. Push down on the rear of the MSM (4) snapping the retaining clips into place in the side brackets.
  3. Connect the MSM rear harness connectors (1).
  4. Connect the MSM front harness connectors.
  5. Install the driver seat cushion/cover (2) «(Refer to BODY/SEATS/SEAT CUSHION COVER - INSTALLATION)»(ref-255946-S18257166942007060500000) .
  6. Connect the battery negative cable.
  7. Using an appropriate scan tool go to the MSM miscellaneous functions and perform the standardization routine.
  8. Verify system and vehicle operation.

The Steering Control Module (SCM) is the module located in the bottom of the Steering Column Control Module (SCCM), retained by three screws, and is the mating point for all the switches (remote radio switches, horn, speed control, steering angle sensor, tilt/telescopic switch, multi-function switch, clockspring) located in the SCCM. The SCM is screwed directly to the bottom of the multi-function switch. All the other switches are mounted on top of the multi-function switch.

USE THE SCAN TOOL TO REPROGRAM THE NEW POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) WITH THE VEHICLES ORIGINAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN) AND THE VEHICLES ORIGINAL MILEAGE. IF THIS STEP IS NOT DONE, A DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) MAY BE SET.

To avoid possible voltage spike damage to PCM, ignition key must be off, and negative battery cable must be disconnected before unplugging PCM connectors.
