2000 Cadillac Seville Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to remove and install the ABS Control Module on 2000 Cadillac Seville?

  A: Begin by shutting down ignition then elevating the vehicle and starting the ABS Control Module removal process. The service technician must detach the left front wheel followed by dissecting the left front fascia extension and left air pump when installed. Unlock the ABS Control Module connector tab by rotating it to its release position and then remove the position assurance from the electrical connector of the ABS Control Module. The wiring harness connection to the ABS Control Module must never receive its power from a disconnected or connected state while the ignition remains in on. The next task consists of removing the ABS Control Module electrical connector from the ABS Control Module as well as the bpmv electrical connector from the ABS Control Module. Clean the surface of the ABS Control Module/bpmv assembly while removing its 6 ABS Control Module to bpmv screws because the ABS Control Module requires replacement when faulty. First cut apart the units which connect the ABS Control Module to the bpmv. Installation of the ABS Control Module involves cleaning the seal surface of bpmv while positioning the ABS Control Module onto the bpmv. Tighten all 6 ABS Control Module to bpmv screws to 3.2 nm (28 inch lbs.). Complete the connection of bpmv electrical connector to ABS Control Module while keeping the Ignition Switch in off position. Use the ABS Control Module electrical connector to join the ABS Control Module. Afterward install the ABS Control Module connector position assurance onto the ABS Control Module electrical connector by turning the ABS Control Module connector tab downward into its locked position. The vehicle requires reinstallation of the left air pump if equipped, left front fascia extension, and left front wheel before it can be lowered. The unprogrammed ABS Control Module can result in non-operating drp/abs/tcs/vses/ves systems if they are equipped along with the generation of dtc codes c1248 or c1255m3. Installation of a new ABS Control Module requires programming with the most current software to match the vehicle while the local dealer should handle this programming procedure. The scan tool should be used to delete dtcs then execute an abs diagnostic system check.
