2005 Chevrolet Cobalt Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the ABS Control Module on 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt?

  A: Begin any replacement of the ABS Control Module after checking that the ignition switch is in the OFF position to shield the ABS Control Module from harm. The throttle body air snorkel must be removed when the vehicle has RPO LSJ. Clean both the surrounding space of the ABS Control Module and brake pressure modulator valve (BPMV) to free them from any foreign materials and dirt. You need to remove the ABS Control Module from the BPMV by first disconnecting its electrical connector then removing four ABS Control Module-to-BPMV retaining bolts. ABS Control Module separation from the BPMV must be performed without using metal tools and while paying attention to prevent surface scratches. After cleaning the ABS Control Module mating surface of the BPMV with denatured alcohol or equivalent solution, make sure that the ABS Control Module-BPMV seam covers the entire groove on the ABS Control Module. Place the ABS Control Module against the BPMV electrical terminals before installing its 4 retaining bolts in a criss-cross pattern at 4.5 Nm (40 inch lbs.). Reconnect the electrical connector to the ABS Control Module then install the throttle body air snorkel in case it was necessary. Part installation of a new ABS Control Module demands programming of the device. To complete the operation turn the ignition switch to ON mode without starting the engine while performing the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle.
