ABS Control Module  Antilock Brake Systems or ABS is an integral part of the safety of your car. Stopping a car on a slippery surface or in a panic situation can cause us to quickly appreciate ABS. These systems work with the aide of sensors at the wheels, computers and control modules. ABS allows us to slow and stop a car in the event the tires lose traction with the ground no matter the surface or conditions.
When the ABS system does not work properly we are not reaping the full advantage of a major safety system. To ensure you are getting the most out of this feature, make sure your TRACS or ABS light is off.
To ensure correct fitment, you need to verify the part number on the unit that is currently in your car. Check the alternate numbers listed with the units below, match up your part number with one of the "alternate" numbers listed. The number is located on the underside of the unit and is not easily viewed, but you can usually see it with a mirror and a flashlight. ipd cannot accept returned units that have been damaged by installation on the wrong vehicle. Please verify part numbers.
You'll need an external Torx socket to replace this module.

Got my unit today, and went to my garage to swap this with my broken one. Bought the tool at the same order.. very easy to change, took me approx. 30 minutes. And I saved a lot! Regular price on this unit where I live is 1900USD! So again, thanks to ipd :)

I just installed a unit in a 1997 850 T5 last night. I did not remove the air cleaner hose and therefore I had a lot of difficulty getting to the screws holding the unit. But I eventually got to all the screws. I used Sears Craftsman 1/4 inch drive socket and the non-ratchet socket handle to work on the screws and I bought the Torx socket IPD sells.
Having just installed the unit, I don't know for sure if it has fixed the problem of the ABS light being on. When I took the car to a dealer, they diagnosed the problem to be the ABS module but said they would have to put a new Volvo module in, at a cost of around $1000, so this unit was a big money saver. The dealer is actually who suggested I look for a re-built unit, so I have to give them credit for being honest. Unfortunately, they have gone out of business-a victim of the recession, or maybe of being too honest!. The only reason I give this a 4 rating instead of a 5 is that you can find these units for sale at about half of what IPD charges. But I went with IPD because of their reputation for quality products.

This fixed my problem with the ABS & TRAC light being on intermittently on my 1998 S70 GLT.
Here are some hints in addition to the instructions that supplied by IPD which I found helpful:
1) You may need to gently wipe the ABS control module face with ammonia cleaner to properly read the numbers since the lines for the numbers are so thin and small amount of dirt can obscure the numbers.
2) For those with turbos, taking out the air cleaner assembly and then moving the turbo inlet hose out of the way out so you can get your arms around the shock tower which the ABS module is mounted between the firewall & shock tower.
3) Slightly loosening the all of the torx screws first and then removing the bottom two screws and finally the top screws will help. The reason for this is that bottom screws are the hardest to get to and having the top two screws holding the ABS control module while concentrating on the bottom screws will help.
4) Make sure you have fully seated the electrical connector before rotating the cover back.

Easy to install. Economical compared to using the dealer service center. Dealer service wanted -THREE- times the cost to replace the ABS control module. I used the dealer service to confirm diagnosis (~$100).

As the dealer said, the dashboard on my 2000 Volvo V70 was lighting up like a Christmas tree. The Check engine light was always on and the ABS light was often on; sometimes the Brake Light was on, and if the brake light was on, sometimes the speedometer didn’t work. I was told that the problem was the ABS control module. The dealer said it would cost between $750 and $900 to fix. From reading about the module at IPD, it was apparent that the installation of a new one was not difficult. There are only four small bolts that hold the module; You must have the E-5 torx socket to remove these bolts and this torx is impossible to find at the local auto supply, so get it from IPD. The ABS module comes ready to install. After figuring out how to get the wiring harness off the module, it took about ½ hour to install. ( I could do it in 15-minutes next time) After installation, all the dash lights were off immediately. Great way to save over $500.
Hint: to read the Control Module number on the engine, I purchased a dentist’s mirror with a light attached at the drug store. Worked perfectly.
