Electromechanical Parking Brake Control Module

NOTE:

The Electromechanical Parking Brake Control Module -J540- and the ESP Sensor Unit -G419- are installed in one housing under the center console.

After replacing the electromechanical parking brake control module with the ESP sensor unit , the ABS control module -J104- must be coded and a basic setting of the "Brake system" (electromechanical parking brake) must be performed.

WARNING:

Excessive shaking (for example, dropping, impact) may damage the ESP sensor unit. ESP Sensor Unit must then no longer be used.

Removing

-- Remove the center console. Refer to Removal and Installation .

-- Remove the three nuts -arrows-.

-- Disconnect the connector -1- from electromechanical parking brake control module.

-- Remove electromechanical parking brake control module.

Installing

-- Install in reverse order of removal.

When installing electromechanical parking brake control module make sure it is correctly seated in its mounting and is free of stress.

NOTE:

Do not use the securing nuts to forcibly position the electromechanical parking brake control module.

-- Tighten the nuts to 9 Nm.

-- Code the ABS control module with the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in "Guided Fault Finding".

A Steering Angle Sensor -G85-, Transverse Acceleration Sensor -G200-, Brake Pressure Sensor 1 -G201- and Longitudinal Acceleration Sensor -G251- basic setting must be done.

-- Perform basic setting for "Brake system" (Electromechanical Parking Brake).

Vehicle Diagnostic Tester, connecting and selecting functions, refer to VAS 5051, CONNECTING AND SELECTION FUNCTIONS .
