ABS Control Unit 850

Ok I was told that what is wrong is my ABS module. My trac and abs light stays while I drive. And do not turn off. So they say I need a new abs Module. I found this guy on the internet and I was wondering if anyone had heard of him.

I found the needle in the haw stack an 850R in the junk yard 2 weeks ago and pulled of the abs Module. If this guy can fix the abs what does he do and could I fix it myself.

You can fix it yourself if you know how to solder. Here is how I did mine:

If you aren't comfortable with that Victor Rocha and Module Masters both have a good reputation.

The web site belongs to Victor Rocha. If you search on his name in the forum archives, you will see that many of us have used his services and highly recommend him to others.

If you have already visited his web site, then you know what he does for your module, what it costs, how quickly he does it, and his guarantee.

There are other module repairers out there, and they will probably do a good job. Most of us on the Brickboard KNOW that Victor will do a good job.

What year 850? 95-97 had module problems for sure. Rebuilders do different things, but essentially it is renewing certain soldier joints which overheat and vibrate loose. Some, I have heard, replace pump switch with a more robust switch. The trick is, knowing which soldier connections to redo and be able to stand behind your work. I'd go with someone with a reputation. BBA reman and ATE have those reputations.
