How I fixed a intermittent ABS and break light problem by Rebuilding the EBCM Module. Total cost $1.19 .
This is how I fixed my intermittent ABS and Brake dash lights on my Chevrolet blazer with the Kelsey-Hayes EBCM module, without spending up to 1500 bucks on a new EBCM. You may have code C0265 “Electronic Brake Control Module Motor Relay Circuit.” The fault is usually due to broken solder joints on the circuit board. This time I need to pull the EBCM and repair the solder. Its a really simple fix. Just touch the soldering Iron to the bad solder points. This video is kind of long but it goes step by step with little editing.
On a on a 2001 chevy blazer I needed a T10 and a T8 torx tool, That and a soldering iron and some RTV sealant and about 1 hour I was good to go.
You should delete this video because you clearly don't know how to hold a camera and set it up or anything else.
World people problems with your tools
You're an engineer?
Dang I did this and my abs light went off but not my check brake light. Could it be from a solder that didn’t take? I checked brake fluid levels and they are fine. The check brake light came on the same time my abs did.
Good ole Harbor Freight tools
You can get a reman for around 300. Great info though!
I have the same problem on my car can you repair my please thanks
A word of caution.Do not have the ignition on while messing with the electronic unit, either disconnecting the plugs or reinserting them back into the module.
`I have an ABS problem on my 2004 Ram 1500, except mine is in the brake pressure modulator valve assembly. No light on or codes. Factory ABS sold for about a grand, but was discontinued in 2015. I'm wondering if the valves can be manipulated by hand, if there may be a piece of dirt lodged in one or just stuck, & possibly could be rebuilt. There is something about used brake parts that seems counter-intuitive to me, but I'll probably have to find a used one.
How do you tell which solder joints are bad? Is there a way to test the module is working properly before reinstalling?
at 16:00 how did you know the second one was the problem? were you actually able to see cracked solder?
That was great, I am having trouble with mine. This brought a lot of clarity to the problems. Thx !
Does these lights being on disrupt the way the vehicle runs and drives ?

Excellent!!! Thank you for your time. Very common issue, my mechanic didn’t want to try it. I’m a dentist and working with tiny delicate things are what I do all day. I wouldn’t recommend for the heavy handed.
You should always clean out the torques screws head before trying to remove the screws. This will really make the difference for sure. What is the camera you are using NCP ??? The tough thing with these modules is finding them at the junkyard, if you can find an undamaged part. Nice work fella too.
How do you clean the connectors?
Good job. Thanks.
Don't vacuum. That creates static. Compressed air only.
Please teacher. How can i purgue the sistem after replace abs module.
why not just pull the ABS fuse and drive it without ABS the way vehicles used to be?
That was super informative . proper hands on repair . real glad it worked out for you .
so i most likely have this exact issue on my 2001 silverado truck… not sure if i can remove it that easy… i wonder if you can just buy a new one…i mean just the plastic part you took off with board not the part with brakes lines connected… what is that part called..??? would i have to have it programmed also?? i never fixed abs before…thanks for sharing
mine is doing the exact same thing, you say about 25.00 at junk yard good i will search for one when these places are open.
