S70 ABS module defeat?

Nov 08, 2007 7 Replies

I've had that faulty PC board problem with my 98 S70 for a while.



Is there any way I can simply defeat the ABS module by undoing aor taking out a fuse or something rather than the constant switching back and forth.



Obviously, you can drive the car without ABS apparently.



Also, I've seen some photos on taking that module out for a rebuild....how difficult is it getting it out?



THANKS



Those modules are known for their bad soldering. It shouldn't be too difficult to repair this yourself if you know how to solder.

Try to google a bit for more information.

Good luck!

It's pretty easy to repair the module, certainly less work than trying to disable it.

Electronics is my business -- so that's good. I've seen some web instructions on getting it out but just looking at it it seems awful cramped in there (and the bolts are hard to see -- facing downwards?).

I'll get it out....any tips?

I'd buy a rebuilt one off Ebay but apparently I have an odd part number that isn't stocked.

I have the T5.

Thanks Barry -- looks pretty straightforward.

The electronics I can do in my sleep but I get frustrated with bolt positions and the access to these things....but I'll try it. I'd be a piss poor mechanic.

No patience.
