I am in tears. You video is awesome. My module went out and Toyota told me it was going to be about $2000 to repair. I ordered the unit from a salvage dealer. After watching your video I realized I only needed to change the control Module. Job complete in 10 minutes. Thank you!!!
I'm glad you were able to follow my video and do the repair yourself saving yourself a lot of money. It's comments like yours that keeps me motivated to make more DIY videos.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you need to reprogram your replaced module? I am afraid that people say you need to reprogram or recode after replacing it.
You are the man for posting this video! I got a refurbished part for $175 USD (they even threw in the E5 socket that you need) and now my dead speedometer is back to life. So relieved. The Toyota dealer wanted to charge me $2300 for this fix!
Very useful video, so I replaced the module in about 45 min. A specialist mechanic wanted $3500 mxn ($200 usd) to do the replacement, blew my mind, and went home to search how to replace it. Thanks a lot!
Toyota wanted $3500 to replace the ABS module. You just saved me about $3200. This video is a freaking life-saver. I had no idea the abs module came apart like this. Thank you!
@@Woodified I took the new module apart and there's a piece of metal that connects the ABS control module to the pump body, so this won't work for Corolla's! Darn it. If anyone else knows how to solve this, or if the connector is redundant please let me know!
General FYI: I had the same issue with an 07 Camry. In the process of taking out the old one I found a lot of dust/debris in there. Blew compressed air throughout it and plugged it back in and everything was back to normal again. Maybe worth a shot for some of you who are looking for solutions. Didnt have to dish out money for a new part.
Woodified yes the rubber seal was no longer there....FWIW my cam has 130k miles. I probably should apply some silicon or something now that i think of it. Still good though after a few hundred miles in
Symptoms are exactly what I'm dealing with, I stumbled across this being the potential problem on a couple sites,but didn't know how easy it is to swap that piece. Thank you, you just made my life a million times easier with a 800+ mile drive approaching.
Used part from local salvage business for $100 with $25 core charge and 90 day warranty. 4mm socket worked better than 5/32 for me. Be careful when tightening screws, I twisted one off; but luckily was able to remove it. So far, it has solved my problem.
Symptoms (thanks to you) fixed: *Brake light on *ABS light on *Tachometer jumping and at times at zero *Same as above for speedometer *Temp-gauge to zero and back to half (normal operating temp) *Fuel would sometimes move around *Hi-beam indicator would be on when lights at normal *Gear (P,R,N, D..)indicator on/off *Air-flow issues for AC/heat *Defogger in front window works at 5% efficiency (REALLY long time to clear-not acceptable in winter) *Rear-windshield defroster works only at C- level Let’s see...what else? Odometer and and trip-meters would NOT count (frozen in time making it look like you were getting horrible mileage) Replacing module? All better!
Thanks for this! I just spent $177 (plus $100 core deposit) on eBay for just the module without the pump. The install was easy and fairly quick… even for this non-mechanical guy.
I don’t generally comment on videos but this video is a life saver. Thanks for posting this! I’ve been having the same issues for a few months and just using Waze. When my mechanic plugged in his computer, it showed that there was also an issue with the rear speed sensors so I changed those too but no use. I guess I should’ve just changed the ABS first.
Hey u are a lifesaver, I took my camry to Toyota dealership and they initially told me it was a bad wire fit for skid control sensor, so when I picked my car up the dealership gave it back to me with the lights on and issue still there,, speedometer not working, Rpm gauge bouncing, temp gauge going nuts, D not lightning up, and E would show where outside temp is,, then it would go back to normal, then do it again,, it drove me nuts and stressed me out.. Dealership finally told me it might be acutator but there not sure and it would at least cost me 2Gs,,and I kept telling them I would do it if I knew the issue for sure.. I just didn't understand how this dealership was so incompetent, and then I looked at reviews and people were saying same complaints about this dealership.. I am not a handy person at all, I'm more of a pay for it to go away and u saved me alot of money and more importantly piece of mind.. That's all I wanted from the dealership.. Thank u so much,, I paid 300 for whole thing and just took module off and used that
I removed the module cleaned it with brake cleaner throughly and let it totally dried then reattached it. It solved the same issues. Also I cleaned the pin side of it with a rag lining below it to catch any debris that fall off.
Hi Woodified That is what happen to my Camry 2007 V6, my car did not have tracking control button but I call dealer and ask them does my car have tracking control system and they say my car had tracking control system, some say at that year 2007 they did not have a button, I am just order an ABS control module with tracking control system and wait for pickup. thank you, your video is very helpful
This worked for my 2007 SE with V6. Please note that you will need a 5mm star socket for this application (or at least my vehicle required it). to remove the bolts. I found the module on line at ebay for $175 + $100 core. I will receive the core money after I've returned it. The total repair took me 20 minutes. Just be careful putting on the new module not to bend the power pins on the inside of the vehicle.
@@y2k1998 Speedometer stopped working and then at times dial needles on all dashboard where spike up and down sporadically, looked it up on google and said ABS was the culprit. also ABS light came and stayed on. Car is running like usual now that i changed the part from the junk yard and only paid about 150
@@Woodified 07 Camry LE..I used a 4mm socket which took a little while to find because my sockets look like a kindergartner has been using them hahhah..I fixed that as well..Thanks again..And I hit the plug with contact cleaner before I plugged it back in because it had been sitting unplugged for a bit..
Okay so this is great and I just replaced my module, but my ABS and brake light are still on. My Tachometer and oil temp gauges are working, speddometer is still not working. Any suggestions??
Yes. I have the same problem with mine once changed it out today with a "new" control module. The ABS light was now on and also the check engine light was on. Also had the brake light on and the brake was not engaged :(
@@wendydecaires1736 For what it's worth, for my specific car, I took the ABS module back and got a refund. I think that there are a few different parts that could be the problem outside of ABS Module, but they all have the same symptoms that are talked about in this video. I would suggest getting your engine light tested to see what the readout is. Mine was speed sensor. Good luck!
Me too!! Everything works the ac and rpm and heat gauge. But the lights for brake and abs still on and speedometer doesn't work and now my check engine light is on.
Hi, great video. I just replaced mine and everything is back to working except the brake and ABS lights are still on. Do you know if I need to get the sensors reset or?
Thanks for the video mother laws car needed this shop wanted $2900 to do the repair found the part on eBay Re manufactured for $209 for a 2007 canary just did the repair and fixed the problems.
I have not looked at car prices recently but $2900 is probably pretty close to the value of a 2007 Camry. I'm glad you were able to get the repair done yourself.
Hello so I have a 2007 Toyota Camry I just had the same issue where my speedometer wasn’t working my ABS light is on, traction control light is on. Sometimes my traction control light and ABS light will flicker then my car will not accelerate or feels like it’s stalling. I was wondering if I could just disconnect the ABS cable?
I just bought one for a 2012 honda civic ex coupe came a kit like yours with 40000km on at DSK salvage yard in N.B. original price was 200 cad plus tax bug got it brought down to 201.25 cad with tax. thanks for the video feel more safe changing it myself now no bigie.
@@Woodified yes but the way my is rotated i cant just remove the electronic part and swap it out its right against the body so i have to pull it all out. well i just swapped it all out. change the abs modulator bled the brakes (the rear breaks really needed it anyway oil had a brown tint to it), plugged back electronics and all the lights were gone. I had a bad relay code. took me about 1h45 min to swap parts not accounting for bleeding the bakes.
That's a good price. I'm pleased my video helped you get your A/C working again. I never noticed that my A/C wasn't working as it was cold where I live when I had the issue.
Hi, my ABS and track control lights are on the Corolla 2010 LÊ. The dealer checked and said I needed to replace the whole module including the pump but my question is I don’t have any of the issues you’ve mentioned - the dealer just pull the codes that said the whole actuator needed to be replaced but really my car shows no symptoms with the gauges and shifter etc... just the dash lights on
It sounds like you have a different issue than what I had. I'm not a mechanic however you could take your car to a local mechanic (that's not in a dealership) and get a second opinion.
Woodified thanks. I’ll be doing that soon. By the way just outta curiosity, did you pulled the codes with a scanner before the repair? I’m wondering which codes you’ve had if so.
@@rickb9358 I didn't have the codes read. I was fairly certain the problem was the ABS module and my local auto recycler said I could return the part if it didn't solve the problem so I went for it.
Thanks for this video, I purchase a ABS Module from the Junk Yard from a 2006 LE and it fixed part of my problem (AC worked and the gauges stopped going crazy) but I found one off a 2008 LE and it fixed the problem. Thanks
You are a ge ntleman and a scholar! Thanks for such an informative video! Just had to replace this same module on my 2009 Toyota Camry SE after 140k miles.... Simple and straightforward!
My ABS light on my 08 Camry comes on randomly and sometimes it comes on right away and stays on. I do not have the other dashboard issues as some in this post. I had a mechanic use his diagnostic tool and he said it was my ABS front wheel sensor, which I replaced. It didn't resolve the issue, so I checked the wiring back to the ABS module and all was good. I also tested the new ABS sensor with a ohm meter and it appears that the new and old sensor are good. I did some research on the internet and it appears that the ABS module could be the culprit. I found a replacement on line, but a few posts suggest I need to have the module "programmed" by the dealer. Anyone know if this is true? I read your post and after you replaced the module everything was fine. I'm just concerned that if I but this module on line for $150 that it won't work or create other issues. Thoughts?
Im about to remove my module on a 2013 honda accord once i remove the abs system what do i do with the break lines because im sending out my abs for repair?
Thanks for your video. Understand this is for the 2007 Toyota Camry, but need to replace on different vehicle. Have heard rumors I need a Dealer to flash the new module in order for it to work on my vehicle. Can you confirm if this is why your auto parts recycler asked you about the VIN, etc. of the Camry to prevent the need to flash? Looking to avoid a trip to the Dealer when replacing. Thanks in advance! Chris, Huntersville, NC
I'm not a mechanic so I can't give a definitive answer. Do your research. Check the forums for your make of vehicle and ask others with the same make/model who have had the same problem. You could check in your vehicle's repair manual. Like at this link but for your vehicle: amzn.to/2NTYMrg. If you can't find the answers you need ask the auto recycler or get a local mechanic to do the work for you.
How did you get your abs from eBay, did you give them your car serie or all ABS can fit any Camry car? I will get mine but I don't know if they are different. Thanks, I am from Mexico
@@veronicacanales4686 oh sorry I forgot to mention... I simply asked the seller to confirm and they confirmed correctly. I also checked the photos and appearance to what I have in mine...and it did work nicely
I have a question, to replace my abs, do I have to take in mind the serie of my car or all kind of abs can fit? I will get my abs by ebay, but I don't know how to ask for it. What characteristics do I have to give them? Thanks a lot, I am from Mexico
My traction light, abs, esp flash and at same time my speedometer moves up and down but doesn't effect the drive ability of vehicle. Lights just flash but don't stay on. Could this be the culprit?
I am curious, when you said the speedometer, brake light and other warning working intermittently, Does the ABS module affects all that? I have similar issue, I thought it was the instrument cluster has problem.
Hey Lestat. Yes i got the same problem and you get a abs light, break light speedometer doesnt work and rpm gauge sometimes goes crazy. A/C gets affected too air comes hot so yeah. New one is like $1000 dls that piece and ive been trying to get cheaper for the last 2 months and its hard to get it in a junk yard
@@crazylatino2788 Actually, you go to ebay, there is a plenty of business selling remanufactured ABS module with different prices, mostly over $120 or more. They need you to return the old one in exchange of core fee. I just ordered one, I hope it will work.
@@jzbrynn i know but i ordered 1 2 months ago they gave me a date to get my part. It was going to take 1 month and exacly the day i was supposed to get it. I got a notification from ebay that they refound me my money cuz they couldn't get my part. And after ive been checking on the junk yards but they never have it
@@crazylatino2788 I purchased an abs module from ebay, and received it today; installed it, and indeed it fixed the speedometer and brake light problem. But the ABS light still on. I just curious, is there abs related problem still?
Thanks for this video, I have an 05 Toyota Avalon. Yesterday similar problem as yours abs light on, brake light on, temperature gauge dead, and a.c.not blowing cold air. I disconnected battery for about 5 minutes, connected battery back, turned car on and everything runned okay for a few minutes but then back with same problem. Do you think the problem is the abs module? Thanks
Sounds like the same problem. My gauges would come back on while I was driving and it would seem like everything was ok then on the same trip the needles would drop again and do that crazy bounce thing.
I assume you got it figured out by now but of the next guy... the fifth digit of the vin denotes whether it is the American or Japanese built. which apparently matters for replacement parts especially the body panels since it is slightly different.
Many thanks for this Video, Woodified.It is really an eye opener. I changed my 2008 Toyota Camry brake pads about 2 months ago, since then, the brake has been vibrating on idle speed when I match brake. My mechanic has confirmed that my ABS is bad, do I need to change only the ABS module to correct this?. However, my mechanic also suggested isolating the brake pipes from the ABS to allow the brakes pumps fluid directly, just like bypassing the ABS using other connectors, is this advisable? because I have seen this work perfectly in some vehicles. I learnt other compartments like AC and Gear are connected to the ABS module
It looks like I'm late to this party but I'm experiencing this same issue! My ABS, Check Engine, and Brake Lights light up and the Speedometer stays at 0 mph and Tachometer flicker intermittently? The biggest problem for me is that the AC stops blowing cold air when all this is happening. I live in the desert where the temps are 110 degrees and drive for a living so I need this fixed ASAP. I called a few service centers and they think I'm crazy when I ask about the ABS nodule. They say that the ABS module is related to the brake system and doesn't have anything to do with the A/C or dash gauges. I don't have $$$$ for a dealership or repair center so this is my only hope. I also don't have anyone to help replace the unit but I'm going to try it myself. Is this easy enough for a girl with no technical experience to do on her own?
Sounds like the issue I had (you can see what my dash lights and gauges were doing here: th-cam.com/video/b-cyRY4av3U/w-d-xo.html). Follow the steps in the ABS replacement video and you should be fine. Let me know how you make out.
I have a 2009 Camry,2.4L,and having the same problem you are having. Do you need to REPROGRAM this used module, or just snap it in place? It looks like a simple fix. The cheapest I have found it to be,and this was at Autozone,700.00. But I live in California USA. This is probably way.
Hi, what are the differences between the ABS actuator and the ABS control module? Are they the same things? I was told by the Toyota dealership that my car needs a ABS actuator. That costs $2200. My car shows all the symptoms mentioned in your video.
@@josephgutierrez3135 I looked up the phone numbers of salvage yard on Yelp. I called them to see if they have any available. You can try that and follow the instructions in the video.
So idk if it's the part that the abs control module(ACM) connects to or if it's the ACM... but the part is making like a chirp noise when the brakes are applied. It's possible to avoid the chirp if I don't press the brakes past about 10%. This occurs while driving or if parked. Further, when I turn the vehicle on and if I immediately start reversing or going forward there is sometimes a delay in full brake function in the sense that the brakes will slow the vehicle but to stop it. To stop it I have to press way more than I should for the speed I am going. Wondering what could cause this. I'd prefer to not just replace the parts. I like to understand it and refurbish if possible.
@@Woodified I ended up pulling the 2 40A fuses and putting them back in and the chirps didn't happen for about 10 miles and they started coming back. The abs pump is also coming on and off frequently. Like comes on for 10 seconds, off for 3 on for 10... Etc. The thing likely needs replaced but I know of these being refurbished so was hoping to do that instead of spending big moneys on a part that only costs that much because of safety reasons. Was also hoping that it could have been a partial blockage of some kind between the fluid reservoir and the pump but eh seems unlikely.
Have a 2001 solara convertible and the abs light just came on and the traction light is flashing. Would replacing this module fix this possibly. As I was sitting in the car and it felt like something was running with the key off, which could be this module, correct???
now please chek my TH-cam im just make a video. i hope can help. make video in INDONESIA. i buy the part only Rp 3.000.000. but new part the dealer of my car crazy Rp 16.000.000. and now i can save my money ty for you video. Godbless you🤗
The issue for my car was the module. However before I changed the part I was not 100% sure it would work. My auto recycler told me if it didn't fix the problem that I could return the part. Changing the pump is more difficult so I started with just the ABS module. It worked. Let me know how you make out.
I bought the complete assembly(pump and ecu) on ebay and got it replaced by a repair shop that I think did not do the bleeding of brakes. 2 weeks after the change now all the brake fluid has leaked from the joint of brake lines to the ABS assembly and brake warning light came on the dashboard. Is the used ABS assembly faulty or the repair shop did not do something proper?
Only replaced the ABS Module not the pump therefore I didn't need to bleed the lines as I didn't touch the lines. My part did come with the pump but I stripped off just the ABS module. You should take your car back and have them fix it.
How do you match the serial numbers for the modules not every module is a sure fit for the car correct ? I was told it needs to be programmed by Toyota Dealer . Can someone help me on what to look for so I can match the right ABS actuator .
Found some around $70 +/-. You will need to look for a part that matches your year. Most eBay salvage yards will have the compatible years listed. the other thing is to look at your vin and see if it matches the correct letter on the 5th digit. ex: "F" would mean that it is an American built vs a Japanese built. For some reason the American and Japanese aren't compatible or so it seems. An earlier comment by @basitgill7519 said that you don't need to reprogram it but I haven't %100 verified ( so far currently under way with my repair). initially I got 7 error codes but if you clear them with a standard code reader and only 1 came back which might be because I only changed the electronic portion. if you change the pump area ( back half with the hydraulic lines - not just the electronics portion). then you will have to bleed the brakes to not get other errors such as a master cylinder pressure sensor error because of air. I'll comment again if I get it fully back up and going.
@trevorchristensen4103 Thanks I needed the one with a " T" letter on it. Swapped out the electronics portion. All light codes went away and air stays on now ! The part cost me 116 . Compare that to 1600 wanted from dealer just for part. Mechanic would of charged me 750 to repair .
@@DodgerRocket glad to hear it worked! I finally got mine fixed. I had a damaged computer potion( punctured). So I figured just the front half was needed. It must have fried the master cylinder sensor at the same time. That’s housed in the back half( it has the 4 copper pins that stick out.) so I ended up replacing the whole unit and bleeding the brakes after. Can confirm though that this skid control ecu doesn’t need to be re-programmed with vin numbers or anything.
Sorry I late seeing this comments however others have helped you out. Glad to hear you got your ABS repaired. I too did not have to reprogram the unit.
@@DodgerRocketthanks for sharing. I believe this is the comment I have been looking for. So my 2009 Toyota Camry has been having issues for the last month. The dashboard lights up with the brake light the airbag icon and the abs. Every time these lights come on the air condition shuts off and when the lights turn off the air condition powers back on. Where did you order your abs control module?
Hi! Thank you so much for the video. Just a quick question, if my 2007 Camry does have a traction control button, would this fix still work for it? (I have the exact same problem with the tachometer, speedometer, and lights)
Please help. Do you have to reprogram the module in anyway? How do the brakes start working normal again? I have the same problem as well as brakes rough to brake.. Please let me know asap.
I did not need to reprogram the module. If your brakes are also rough you should get a mechanic to look at those for you as you. Sounds like your car has more problems.
A socket wench that fits the small bolts (I showed the size in the vid) and another socket to disconnect the battery. Good luck with the fix. Let me know how you make out.
Hey I can't disconnect the cable after lifting up the lever of My 2007 Toyota Sequoia. I saw you pulled it out very easily. May be mine is stuck or I'm missing something. Can you explain the removal of the cable please. Thanks
I tryed to do what you are doing,but I went to every auto wrecking yard from Vacaville, California to Auburn, California and couldn't find one used. This is a hot item in California. You can't pass smog with a faulty unit. You have to cheat ( find a smog station that will look the other way) This yr I can skip the smog test, but next year I will have to go through that process again. Hoping to sell the car before hand. Other than this small problem, it is a very reliable car.
@@Woodified I'm just driving it gently and not trying to hammer on the brakes/driving like I don't have ABS. I know that's not ideal but I can't afford to pay a shop $500+ parts to fix
2014 corolla (85k miles). abs/trac/brake lights came on several times. went to the dealer and they pulled code C146F and said that the solenoid valves were sticking and recommended replacing the ABS actuator, which would cost me ~2400$. if it's just the solenoid valves that's the issue, would replacing the module work or do i need to replace the entire actuator?
Thanks for the video! Does the replacement abs control module need a warranty, i.e., if the part you get from ebay or the junk yard is not working correctly, could you potentially lose ABS braking functionality?
@@Woodified I meant - how do you test or know the 'junkyard' ABS module is working? Will the ABS light come back on if the unit is not functional? Thanks!
@@anitaalfred2880 I'm not a mechanic however if the part is installed and the ABS light and dashboard issues don't go away I would assume the part either doesn't work with your car or your car has another issue.
Thank-you for the great video! Does installing a 2nd hand ABS module from the US affect the Camry's dash info. I live in Canada and my main concern is the outside temperature digital in the dash would go to Fahrenheit instead of Celsius if I install a module from the US. Please let me know if have info in this regard.
Great question. I'm in Canada too but I picked my ABS module from my auto recycler. I don't know if that would create that problem or not. I'd be interested in finding out what you learn.
Hello friends! I'm brazilian! I have a 2007 v6 camry and it has the following problems on the panel! speedometer, temperature, oscillating fuel, rpm, gear markers, vsc sisten appears! march taking a while to pass! almost dead panel! will it be if it can be the abs module? Thank you very much in advance
I never noticed if my A/C wasn't working as it was Winter at the time. Try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes. Reconnect the battery, start the car and turn on the A/C does it work even for a short while, do the dash lights stay off?
When the ABS module is replaced, everything will return to normal. My A/C worked spotty. But when the unit Is replaced with one that does work, the A/C will work fine again. But in California, this part is rather expensive because of our high taxes. Guess in Canada there isn't any tax?
followed your steps, this was easy! my ac works great, my speedometer and rpm gage are good 👍. the abs light, brake light didn't go away though, and the check engine light came on ... any thoughts ?
replaced ABS Module on 09 Toyota Camry SE - got part from Junkyard for 106$ however, when we finished with the new one and reconnected the battery the alarm system kept going off. i stuck my key in the ignition to attempt to stop the alarm and tried to turn the car on but it would not connect. any ideas on what to try next? anything helps! thanks in advance.
PS: did not have traction control, made sure to get ABS module w/o that as well. part fit in perfect and no issue other than the alarm and actually starting the car.
I'm in the process of ordering this part for my 2007 Camry because it's having the same issue! How did you know that you just needed the ABS control module, and not the ABS pump?
My brakes felt normal. i.e. I didn't need to push the brakes harder to stop and my brakes were not locking up. So I decided to try replacing the module first. My auto recycler would not sell me just the module so I now have an spare pump as I didn't need to replace it. Replacing the ABS pump makes the repair more difficult as you'll need to bleed the lines.
Great video and info! My 07 Camry XLE V6 did the same thing, schizo dash and no cold air. Found a used ABS module at a local junk yard for $100. Works perfectly. My fifth digit VIN is K, the junked car it came off was E, a 2009 model. But both are WITHOUT traction control, which is the only way it will work.
Awesome good to know. I just bought an 07 Camry with a 5th digit vin of E, can I expect this problem? Im trying to see if its worth keeping. Ugh. Thank you!
Your issue sounds a little different. You may need to start trouble shooting. You mentioned about maybe your car's problem is a fuse. Have a look at the fuses to rule out that as a possible cause.
Hmm...I have something similar but I dont have an abs/brake light illuminated. FWIW, tach works well too. Speedo doesnt move. All the other gauges work fine. No CEL, brake or other warning lights. Suggestions? This is an 07 4cy and does have ABS FWIW.
I am so glad I found this video! I have the exact same issue and am going to be looking to order a part right away. Do you happen to know the part number of the ABS module you installed?
Great video. Great detail. I had a choice of a module with 79,000 miles on it for 234 usd after sales tax. Other option was 123,000 for about 205 without tax, etc. took me about 15m. Unfortunately my abs and brake light and speedometer seem to be coming back Intermittently. I made sure to clean the o ring around the new module. I also reflashed the ecu to ensure it didn’t just need a reflash to clear the codes. I’m trying it at later today.. anyone else experience this?
Hey brother I like your video it was very helpful how do I know that my car does not have anti skid control I have the same car you do same year as well
If you have traction control there should be a button somewhere. Look in the owners manual for what it would look like. If you can’t find the button chances are you don’t have traction control.
my girlfriend has a 2007 toyota Yaris, and the abs, esc and tracktion-control is showing up in the dash.. If i change the ABS controll Module, will they go away?
I only replaced the module as shown in the video. I'm still driving the same car and have not had another issue with the ABS control module since replacing it.
I am in tears. You video is awesome. My module went out and Toyota told me it was going to be about $2000 to repair. I ordered the unit from a salvage dealer. After watching your video I realized I only needed to change the control Module. Job complete in 10 minutes. Thank you!!!

Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you need to reprogram your replaced module? I am afraid that people say you need to reprogram or recode after replacing it.
No you don’t need to reprogram/recode it but you might have to take the air out or called bleeding air so no issues caused.

Blew compressed air throughout it and plugged it back in and everything was back to normal again. Maybe worth a shot for some of you who are looking for solutions. Didnt have to dish out money for a new part.
That's a great tip thanks for sharing. Did you notice if the rubber seal was broken when you had the part off?
Woodified yes the rubber seal was no longer there....FWIW my cam has 130k miles. I probably should apply some silicon or something now that i think of it. Still good though after a few hundred miles in
Gotta love those low cost fixes.😀
Symptoms are exactly what I'm dealing with, I stumbled across this being the potential problem on a couple sites,but didn't know how easy it is to swap that piece. Thank you, you just made my life a million times easier with a 800+ mile drive approaching.
You're welcome!
Used part from local salvage business for $100 with $25 core charge and 90 day warranty. 4mm socket worked better than 5/32 for me. Be careful when tightening screws, I twisted one off; but luckily was able to remove it. So far, it has solved my problem.
You got a good price. Thanks for the warning on over tightening.
Symptoms (thanks to you) fixed:
*Brake light on
*ABS light on
*Tachometer jumping and at times at zero
*Same as above for speedometer
*Temp-gauge to zero and back to half (normal operating temp)
*Fuel would sometimes move around
*Hi-beam indicator would be on when lights at normal
*Gear (P,R,N, D..)indicator on/off
*Air-flow issues for AC/heat
*Defogger in front window works at 5% efficiency (REALLY long time to clear-not acceptable in winter)
*Rear-windshield defroster works only at C- level
Let’s see...what else?
Odometer and and trip-meters would NOT count (frozen in time making it look like you were getting horrible mileage)
Replacing module?
All better!
Awesome. Glad you got your vehicle fixed. Thanks for sharing the detailed symptoms you were experiencing.
All the problems I'm having.
I have the same problem and the dealer's cost rm20k. Luckily I saw your video. I think its only cost about rm1k. Thank you so much.
Glad it helped
Thanks for this! I just spent $177 (plus $100 core deposit) on eBay for just the module without the pump. The install was easy and fairly quick… even for this non-mechanical guy.
Awesome. Glad I could help you out.
Replaced my module cost 1,150 and watched your video saved me $500 from mechanic
That's awesome. Glad you were able to save some cash.
I don’t generally comment on videos but this video is a life saver. Thanks for posting this! I’ve been having the same issues for a few months and just using Waze. When my mechanic plugged in his computer, it showed that there was also an issue with the rear speed sensors so I changed those too but no use. I guess I should’ve just changed the ABS first.
I'm glad you were able to solve you car problems using my video. 😄
My problem after the first replacement was a defective module. Once I got the second one, it worked :)
Great that you got it working
Hey u are a lifesaver, I took my camry to Toyota dealership and they initially told me it was a bad wire fit for skid control sensor, so when I picked my car up the dealership gave it back to me with the lights on and issue still there,, speedometer not working, Rpm gauge bouncing, temp gauge going nuts, D not lightning up, and E would show where outside temp is,, then it would go back to normal, then do it again,, it drove me nuts and stressed me out.. Dealership finally told me it might be acutator but there not sure and it would at least cost me 2Gs,,and I kept telling them I would do it if I knew the issue for sure.. I just didn't understand how this dealership was so incompetent, and then I looked at reviews and people were saying same complaints about this dealership.. I am not a handy person at all, I'm more of a pay for it to go away and u saved me alot of money and more importantly piece of mind.. That's all I wanted from the dealership.. Thank u so much,, I paid 300 for whole thing and just took module off and used that
Thanks for sharing your experience. This is way I make DIY videos--to help people just like you.
I removed the module cleaned it with brake cleaner throughly and let it totally dried then reattached it. It solved the same issues. Also I cleaned the pin side of it with a rag lining below it to catch any debris that fall off.
Wow that sounds like a low cost repair. Hopefully the unit continues to work for you.
To follow up on what I did. The car is still running fine since then. Knock on wood.👍
My module was $106 for my 2003 Sequoia. Thanks for the video, great to know I didn't need to swap the entire pump unit!!
Glad it helped
Hi Woodified That is what happen to my Camry 2007 V6, my car did not have tracking control button but I call dealer and ask them does my car have tracking control system and they say my car had tracking control system, some say at that year 2007 they did not have a button,
I am just order an ABS control module with tracking control system and wait for pickup.
thank you, your video is very helpful
Hi Helen, thanks for sharing that info on the tracking control. Good luck with the repair.
Amazing video, thank you! What about bleeding it?
I only changed the module not the pump so the lines were never disconnected.
@@Woodified thanks for the reply man! How do you know if the pump is bad??
This worked for my 2007 SE with V6. Please note that you will need a 5mm star socket for this application (or at least my vehicle required it). to remove the bolts. I found the module on line at ebay for $175 + $100 core. I will receive the core money after I've returned it. The total repair took me 20 minutes. Just be careful putting on the new module not to bend the power pins on the inside of the vehicle.
Hi Mike, Thanks for sharing your tips and experience.
Saved me over 2000 dollars, i just had this happen on my 2009 toyota camry :(
awesome!
@@Woodified I've read these are suppose to last the life of the car, I wonder why mine went out at 155k miles
What symptoms was your Camry showing before you fixed it and how is it running now? I have a 2008 as well 😅
@@y2k1998 Speedometer stopped working and then at times dial needles on all dashboard where spike up and down sporadically, looked it up on google and said ABS was the culprit. also ABS light came and stayed on.

Amazing!!! I just replaced it today on my sons 2007 Camry and it worked perfectly! Thanks again, we got our abs on eBay for $150.
Fantastic!
How did you got it, do you need the car serie or all ABS can fit any camry car? Help please, I will get mine from there too. I am from Mexico
Man you got me fixed up!!! Came out perfectly and went back in perfectly 👌..Thanks so much for the video!!! Cost $180 for the part..
That's awesome! I'm so pleased to hear my video helped you get your car repaired. I'm curious...what make, model and year is year car?
@@Woodified 07 Camry LE..I used a 4mm socket which took a little while to find because my sockets look like a kindergartner has been using them hahhah..I fixed that as well..Thanks again..And I hit the plug with contact cleaner before I plugged it back in because it had been sitting unplugged for a bit..
I hear you with the sockets. I usually forget to latch the one side of my socket case and they fall out of their trays, LOL
Okay so this is great and I just replaced my module, but my ABS and brake light are still on. My Tachometer and oil temp gauges are working, speddometer is still not working. Any suggestions??
Did you fix out what was wrong with your car?
Yes. I have the same problem with mine once changed it out today with a "new" control module. The ABS light was now on and also the check engine light was on. Also had the brake light on and the brake was not engaged :(
@@wendydecaires1736 For what it's worth, for my specific car, I took the ABS module back and got a refund. I think that there are a few different parts that could be the problem outside of ABS Module, but they all have the same symptoms that are talked about in this video. I would suggest getting your engine light tested to see what the readout is. Mine was speed sensor.
Good luck!
Me too!! Everything works the ac and rpm and heat gauge. But the lights for brake and abs still on and speedometer doesn't work and now my check engine light is on.
Maybe ECU
Thanks bro followed your video to the T. Worked perfect!
Great to hear!
Hi, great video. I just replaced mine and everything is back to working except the brake and ABS lights are still on. Do you know if I need to get the sensors reset or?
Thanks for the video mother laws car needed this shop wanted $2900 to do the repair found the part on eBay Re manufactured for $209 for a 2007 canary just did the repair and fixed the problems.
I have not looked at car prices recently but $2900 is probably pretty close to the value of a 2007 Camry. I'm glad you were able to get the repair done yourself.
Hello so I have a 2007 Toyota Camry I just had the same issue where my speedometer wasn’t working my ABS light is on, traction control light is on. Sometimes my traction control light and ABS light will flicker then my car will not accelerate or feels like it’s stalling. I was wondering if I could just disconnect the ABS cable?
And not have ABS brakes?
I just bought one for a 2012 honda civic ex coupe came a kit like yours with 40000km on at DSK salvage yard in N.B. original price was 200 cad plus tax bug got it brought down to 201.25 cad with tax. thanks for the video feel more safe changing it myself now no bigie.
I'm glad my video helped out a fellow Maritimer! $201.25 is a good price. The swap is easy to do. I included all the steps in the video.
@@Woodified yes but the way my is rotated i cant just remove the electronic part and swap it out its right against the body so i have to pull it all out. well i just swapped it all out. change the abs modulator bled the brakes (the rear breaks really needed it anyway oil had a brown tint to it), plugged back electronics and all the lights were gone. I had a bad relay code. took me about 1h45 min to swap parts not accounting for bleeding the bakes.
Awesome video. My 09 hybrid is giving me an issue too. How to know if it’s the module or the whole abs pump ? Will a scanner specify it?
I'm trying to find that out as well. How to know if it is the pump or the module....Sigh. Hopefully we figure it out soon!!!
You can do trial and error. My part came with the pump and I just swapped out the module. Let me know how you make out.
Abs module cost me 150.00 from eBay . Took me 20 min to swap. Saved me thousands. Now I can enjoy the AC again in almost 2 years.
That's a good price. I'm pleased my video helped you get your A/C working again. I never noticed that my A/C wasn't working as it was cold where I live when I had the issue.
Your really exaggerating , it's not "thousands".
Could easily cost thousands if hes getting a new oem pump and module with labor. Quit being a dink.
If I have bought a donnor part from the same car will I have to code it?
No I didn't recode mine. All steps were shown in the video
Did you have to reset or reprogram the system after the new installation?
I did not have to reprogram. Every step is shown is the video.
Woodified thanks
Hi, my ABS and track control lights are on the Corolla 2010 LÊ. The dealer checked and said I needed to replace the whole module including the pump but my question is I don’t have any of the issues you’ve mentioned - the dealer just pull the codes that said the whole actuator needed to be replaced but really my car shows no symptoms with the gauges and shifter etc... just the dash lights on
It sounds like you have a different issue than what I had. I'm not a mechanic however you could take your car to a local mechanic (that's not in a dealership) and get a second opinion.
Woodified thanks. I’ll be doing that soon. By the way just outta curiosity, did you pulled the codes with a scanner before the repair? I’m wondering which codes you’ve had if so.
@@rickb9358 I didn't have the codes read. I was fairly certain the problem was the ABS module and my local auto recycler said I could return the part if it didn't solve the problem so I went for it.
Thanks for this video, I purchase a ABS Module from the Junk Yard from a 2006 LE and it fixed part of my problem (AC worked and the gauges stopped going crazy) but I found one off a 2008 LE and it fixed the problem. Thanks
Glad my video helped you fix your car.
You are a ge ntleman and a scholar! Thanks for such an informative video! Just had to replace this same module on my 2009 Toyota Camry SE after 140k miles.... Simple and straightforward!
Thank you for the nice comments. Glad my video helped you out.
My ABS light on my 08 Camry comes on randomly and sometimes it comes on right away and stays on. I do not have the other dashboard issues as some in this post. I had a mechanic use his diagnostic tool and he said it was my ABS front wheel sensor, which I replaced. It didn't resolve the issue, so I checked the wiring back to the ABS module and all was good. I also tested the new ABS sensor with a ohm meter and it appears that the new and old sensor are good. I did some research on the internet and it appears that the ABS module could be the culprit. I found a replacement on line, but a few posts suggest I need to have the module "programmed" by the dealer. Anyone know if this is true? I read your post and after you replaced the module everything was fine. I'm just concerned that if I but this module on line for $150 that it won't work or create other issues. Thoughts?
Omer Fantoukh left a comment that he bought one from ebay with 6 month guarantee. May be you can find a similar deal.
Im about to remove my module on a 2013 honda accord once i remove the abs system what do i do with the break lines because im sending out my abs for repair?
sorry just seeing this now. I'm sure you figured it out
Hi, why need to disconnect the battery first? Thank you.
Didn't want to risk any electrical issues or personal injury while working on the repair.
Thanks for your video. Understand this is for the 2007 Toyota Camry, but need to replace on different vehicle. Have heard rumors I need a Dealer to flash the new module in order for it to work on my vehicle. Can you confirm if this is why your auto parts recycler asked you about the VIN, etc. of the Camry to prevent the need to flash? Looking to avoid a trip to the Dealer when replacing. Thanks in advance!
Chris, Huntersville, NC
I'm not a mechanic so I can't give a definitive answer. Do your research. Check the forums for your make of vehicle and ask others with the same make/model who have had the same problem. You could check in your vehicle's repair manual. Like at this link but for your vehicle: amzn.to/2NTYMrg. If you can't find the answers you need ask the auto recycler or get a local mechanic to do the work for you.
I'm just calling from Ghana. Assuming I want the module to replace the faulty one, how much will the module cost fro your end there.
$75 - $120 USD
just ordered replacement, $160 on Ebay. All repair steps are correct. Only question is on the bolts: 5/32" or 4mm ?
metric
How did you get your abs from eBay, did you give them your car serie or all ABS can fit any Camry car? I will get mine but I don't know if they are different. Thanks, I am from Mexico
@@veronicacanales4686 I confirmed the module fits 2008 Camry. I installed it in April and it is working perfect so far.

@@veronicacanales4686 oh sorry I forgot to mention... I simply asked the seller to confirm and they confirmed correctly. I also checked the photos and appearance to what I have in mine...and it did work nicely
Having this same issue with my 07 Camry Hybrid with VSC. Do you think this might work? Cause I loathe going to the dealer for ANY non-covered repair.
The part comes with or without traction control. Your local auto recycler should be able to help you get the right part for your model.
I have a question, to replace my abs, do I have to take in mind the serie of my car or all kind of abs can fit? I will get my abs by ebay, but I don't know how to ask for it. What characteristics do I have to give them? Thanks a lot, I am from Mexico
My local vehicle recycler needed the make, model, the 5th digit of the VIN and whether or not the car had the traction control button.
$2,389 dealer repair cost $96 including tax. Fricken awesome!!!
Way to save some cash!!
Can I use the same parts on a hybrid version or is it all different
I relied on my auto recycler to get me the right part.
I’m having the same problem with my 2014 Toyota Camry could it be the same problem?
Did you figure out your cars problem?
My traction light, abs, esp flash and at same time my speedometer moves up and down but doesn't effect the drive ability of vehicle. Lights just flash but don't stay on. Could this be the culprit?
Sounds familiar.
Would I need to get this coded once I replace it?
I did not need to reprogram.
I am curious, when you said the speedometer, brake light and other warning working intermittently, Does the ABS module affects all that? I have similar issue, I thought it was the instrument cluster has problem.
Hey Lestat. Yes i got the same problem and you get a abs light, break light speedometer doesnt work and rpm gauge sometimes goes crazy. A/C gets affected too air comes hot so yeah. New one is like $1000 dls that piece and ive been trying to get cheaper for the last 2 months and its hard to get it in a junk yard
Yes. I put a video link in the description showing the issues on my dash.
@@crazylatino2788 Actually, you go to ebay, there is a plenty of business selling remanufactured ABS module with different prices, mostly over $120 or more. They need you to return the old one in exchange of core fee. I just ordered one, I hope it will work.
@@jzbrynn i know but i ordered 1 2 months ago they gave me a date to get my part. It was going to take 1 month and exacly the day i was supposed to get it.

@@crazylatino2788 I purchased an abs module from ebay, and received it today; installed it, and indeed it fixed the speedometer and brake light problem. But the ABS light still on. I just curious, is there abs related problem still?
Thanks for this video, I have an 05 Toyota Avalon. Yesterday similar problem as yours abs light on, brake light on, temperature gauge dead, and a.c.not blowing cold air. I disconnected battery for about 5 minutes, connected battery back, turned car on and everything runned okay for a few minutes but then back with same problem. Do you think the problem is the abs module? Thanks
Sounds like the same problem. My gauges would come back on while I was driving and it would seem like everything was ok then on the same trip the needles would drop again and do that crazy bounce thing.
I replaced abs module two days ago and so far everything running good. I paid $70 dls at wrecking yard, thanks for your video....
Nice! Thanks for sharing your results.
Thank you for making this video, my junkyard seller asked me what is my ABS module traction ID, do you have any ideal where I can find it?
My auto dealer asked for the 5th digit of my vin.
I assume you got it figured out by now but of the next guy... the fifth digit of the vin denotes whether it is the American or Japanese built. which apparently matters for replacement parts especially the body panels since it is slightly different.
Many thanks for this Video, Woodified.It is really an eye opener. I changed my 2008 Toyota Camry brake pads about 2 months ago, since then, the brake has been vibrating on idle speed when I match brake. My mechanic has confirmed that my ABS is bad, do I need to change only the ABS module to correct this?. However, my mechanic also suggested isolating the brake pipes from the ABS to allow the brakes pumps fluid directly, just like bypassing the ABS using other connectors, is this advisable? because I have seen this work perfectly in some vehicles. I learnt other compartments like AC and Gear are connected to the ABS module
If you need to change the pump the lines will need to be bleed. That's out of the scope of my video.
hello! i was wondering if it’s the same process with the hybrid version of this camry!
Not sure. This should work with a Camry 2007 to 2015
It looks like I'm late to this party but I'm experiencing this same issue! My ABS, Check Engine, and Brake Lights light up and the Speedometer stays at 0 mph and Tachometer flicker intermittently? The biggest problem for me is that the AC stops blowing cold air when all this is happening. I live in the desert where the temps are 110 degrees and drive for a living so I need this fixed ASAP. I called a few service centers and they think I'm crazy when I ask about the ABS nodule. They say that the ABS module is related to the brake system and doesn't have anything to do with the A/C or dash gauges. I don't have $$$$ for a dealership or repair center so this is my only hope. I also don't have anyone to help replace the unit but I'm going to try it myself. Is this easy enough for a girl with no technical experience to do on her own?
Sounds like the issue I had (you can see what my dash lights and gauges were doing here: th-cam.com/video/b-cyRY4av3U/w-d-xo.html). Follow the steps in the ABS replacement video and you should be fine. Let me know how you make out.
My air not working neither
I have a 2009 Camry,2.4L,and having the same problem you are having. Do you need to REPROGRAM this used module, or just snap it in place?
It looks like a simple fix.
The cheapest I have found it to be,and this was at Autozone,700.00. But I live in California USA.
This is probably way.
I did not have to reprogram it. I swapped it out as shown in the vid.
@@Woodified / I was wondering I have a 09 Camry, that is having the same problem as your car has.
Is the procedure the same?

I'm not a mechanic but have a look under your hood. Good chance it's the same or very similar.
Hi, what are the differences between the ABS actuator and the ABS control module? Are they the same things? I was told by the Toyota dealership that my car needs a ABS actuator. That costs $2200. My car shows all the symptoms mentioned in your video.

What made you conclude the pump didn't also need replacing?
My research lead me to the ABS module as the most likely problem. I replaced it and it worked so I didn't replace the pump.
@Woodified ...I went and bought a Foxwell scan tool to Auto Bleed the system. Hoping it works.
So idk if it's the part that the abs control module(ACM) connects to or if it's the ACM... but the part is making like a chirp noise when the brakes are applied.
It's possible to avoid the chirp if I don't press the brakes past about 10%. This occurs while driving or if parked. Further, when I turn the vehicle on and if I immediately start reversing or going forward there is sometimes a delay in full brake function in the sense that the brakes will slow the vehicle but to stop it. To stop it I have to press way more than I should for the speed I am going.
Wondering what could cause this. I'd prefer to not just replace the parts. I like to understand it and refurbish if possible.
I'm not a mechanic and I've not had that issue. If you can't figure it out might be best to take the vehicle to a mechanic.
@@Woodified I ended up pulling the 2 40A fuses and putting them back in and the chirps didn't happen for about 10 miles and they started coming back. The abs pump is also coming on and off frequently. Like comes on for 10 seconds, off for 3 on for 10... Etc. The thing likely needs replaced but I know of these being refurbished so was hoping to do that instead of spending big moneys on a part that only costs that much because of safety reasons. Was also hoping that it could have been a partial blockage of some kind between the fluid reservoir and the pump but eh seems unlikely.
Have a 2001 solara convertible and the abs light just came on and the traction light is flashing. Would replacing this module fix this possibly. As I was sitting in the car and it felt like something was running with the key off, which could be this module, correct???
That's not the issue I had with my Camry. That doesn't mean it's not an ABS issue. Check out the toyotanation.com forum.

please subs my chanel in TH-cam thanxs alot
Glad my video helped you with the fix.
How do you determine if problem is pump or module?
The issue for my car was the module. However before I changed the part I was not 100% sure it would work. My auto recycler told me if it didn't fix the problem that I could return the part. Changing the pump is more difficult so I started with just the ABS module. It worked. Let me know how you make out.
I bought the complete assembly(pump and ecu) on ebay and got it replaced by a repair shop that I think did not do the bleeding of brakes. 2 weeks after the change now all the brake fluid has leaked from the joint of brake lines to the ABS assembly and brake warning light came on the dashboard. Is the used ABS assembly faulty or the repair shop did not do something proper?
Only replaced the ABS Module not the pump therefore I didn't need to bleed the lines as I didn't touch the lines. My part did come with the pump but I stripped off just the ABS module. You should take your car back and have them fix it.
I have a Dodge Grand Caravan with the same issues will this fix work for that vehicle as well
I'm not a mechanic and I've not researched the issue with a Grand Caravan. Let me know what you find out.
How do you match the serial numbers for the modules not every module is a sure fit for the car correct ? I was told it needs to be programmed by Toyota Dealer . Can someone help me on what to look for so I can match the right ABS actuator .
Found some around $70 +/-. You will need to look for a part that matches your year. Most eBay salvage yards will have the compatible years listed. the other thing is to look at your vin and see if it matches the correct letter on the 5th digit. ex: "F" would mean that it is an American built vs a Japanese built. For some reason the American and Japanese aren't compatible or so it seems. An earlier comment by @basitgill7519 said that you don't need to reprogram it but I haven't %100 verified ( so far currently under way with my repair). initially I got 7 error codes but if you clear them with a standard code reader and only 1 came back which might be because I only changed the electronic portion. if you change the pump area ( back half with the hydraulic lines - not just the electronics portion). then you will have to bleed the brakes to not get other errors such as a master cylinder pressure sensor error because of air. I'll comment again if I get it fully back up and going.
@trevorchristensen4103 Thanks I needed the one with a " T" letter on it. Swapped out the electronics portion. All light codes went away and air stays on now ! The part cost me 116 . Compare that to 1600 wanted from dealer just for part. Mechanic would of charged me 750 to repair .
@@DodgerRocket glad to hear it worked! I finally got mine fixed. I had a damaged computer potion( punctured). So I figured just the front half was needed. It must have fried the master cylinder sensor at the same time. That’s housed in the back half( it has the 4 copper pins that stick out.) so I ended up replacing the whole unit and bleeding the brakes after. Can confirm though that this skid control ecu doesn’t need to be re-programmed with vin numbers or anything.
Sorry I late seeing this comments however others have helped you out. Glad to hear you got your ABS repaired. I too did not have to reprogram the unit.
@@DodgerRocketthanks for sharing. I believe this is the comment I have been looking for. So my 2009 Toyota Camry has been having issues for the last month. The dashboard lights up with the brake light the airbag icon and the abs. Every time these lights come on the air condition shuts off and when the lights turn off the air condition powers back on. Where did you order your abs control module?
Just did this. Everything good now. I had the same issues. Instrument cluster not working and AC blowing hot air. Got one from a salvage yard for $175
That's great. I'm glad my video helped you out. $175 is a good price.
Hi! Thank you so much for the video. Just a quick question, if my 2007 Camry does have a traction control button, would this fix still work for it? (I have the exact same problem with the tachometer, speedometer, and lights)
It should. Tell your auto recycler you have traction control and they should get you the right ABS module. Let me know how you make out.
does it require programming?
No reprogramming. I showed all steps in my video.
Hi,.did you have to code new pump to the car.? Thanks
I didn't have to reprogram the ABS module. I also didn't change the pump just the module. Every step I did is in the vid.
Please help. Do you have to reprogram the module in anyway? How do the brakes start working normal again? I have the same problem as well as brakes rough to brake.. Please let me know asap.
I did not need to reprogram the module. If your brakes are also rough you should get a mechanic to look at those for you as you. Sounds like your car has more problems.
what tools do I need to Do it Myself ?
thank you so much !!!
A socket wench that fits the small bolts (I showed the size in the vid) and another socket to disconnect the battery. Good luck with the fix. Let me know how you make out.

I tryed to do what you are doing,but I went to every auto wrecking yard from Vacaville, California to Auburn, California and couldn't find one used. This is a hot item in California. You can't pass smog with a faulty unit.
You have to cheat ( find a smog station that will look the other way)
This yr I can skip the smog test, but next year I will have to go through that process again. Hoping to sell the car before hand.
Other than this small problem, it is a very reliable car.
Other have commented that they found the part on-line.
I was told that you have to connect it to a computer to clear the codes and to tighten it in an X pattern
I didn't have to connect mine to a computer. X pattern seems like a good idea.
Great video. Do you think this would be applicable to a 2013 Corolla?
It likely has similar parts. Did you get your car repaired yourself?
@@Woodified I'm just driving it gently and not trying to hammer on the brakes/driving like I don't have ABS. I know that's not ideal but I can't afford to pay a shop $500+ parts to fix
Same problem VW eos 1.4 2008.. i think low voltage but now i see your video i dont know what must to do.
good luck with your repair
2014 corolla (85k miles). abs/trac/brake lights came on several times. went to the dealer and they pulled code C146F and said that the solenoid valves were sticking and recommended replacing the ABS actuator, which would cost me ~2400$. if it's just the solenoid valves that's the issue, would replacing the module work or do i need to replace the entire actuator?
I'm not a mechanic. Search around online and/or get a second quote from an independent mechanic. Best of luck.
Thanks for the video! Does the replacement abs control module need a warranty, i.e., if the part you get from ebay or the junk yard is not working correctly, could you potentially lose ABS braking functionality?
If the part does not work your junk yard should take it back. My local auto recycler said they'd take it back if it didn't work.
@@Woodified I meant - how do you test or know the 'junkyard' ABS module is working? Will the ABS light come back on if the unit is not functional? Thanks!
@@anitaalfred2880 I'm not a mechanic however if the part is installed and the ABS light and dashboard issues don't go away I would assume the part either doesn't work with your car or your car has another issue.
Thank-you for the great video! Does installing a 2nd hand ABS module from the US affect the Camry's dash info. I live in Canada and my main concern is the outside temperature digital in the dash would go to Fahrenheit instead of Celsius if I install a module from the US. Please let me know if have info in this regard.
Great question. I'm in Canada too but I picked my ABS module from my auto recycler. I don't know if that would create that problem or not. I'd be interested in finding out what you learn.
Hello friends! I'm brazilian! I have a 2007 v6 camry and it has the following problems on the panel! speedometer, temperature, oscillating fuel, rpm, gear markers, vsc sisten appears! march taking a while to pass! almost dead panel! will it be if it can be the abs module? Thank you very much in advance
There is a video link in the description showing my dash with the problem. Hope that helps you narrow down your problem.
I have the same problem and my air is blowing no cold . If I replace it would the air work ?
I never noticed if my A/C wasn't working as it was Winter at the time. Try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes. Reconnect the battery, start the car and turn on the A/C does it work even for a short while, do the dash lights stay off?
Same issue and yes the ac and radiator cooling fans will not function. Caused a major overheat in ours
Did you have to reprogram this module?
I did not have to reprogram. I showed everything I did in the video.
Did anyone’s Ac worked on and off doing the issue? And where do I find the part number? To get a replacement
A few people have noted their A/C also didn't work. It was cold when I had the issue so I wasn't using the A/C at the time.
Woodified ok thanks
When the ABS module is replaced, everything will return to normal.
My A/C worked spotty. But when the unit Is replaced with one that does work, the A/C will work fine again.
But in California, this part is rather expensive because of our high taxes.
Guess in Canada there isn't any tax?
followed your steps, this was easy! my ac works great, my speedometer and rpm gage are good 👍. the abs light, brake light didn't go away though, and the check engine light came on ... any thoughts ?
Were you able to figure out the check engine light? Was it a separate issue?
Any luck fixing this my friend?
it is true that by changing the abs I have to reprogram it?
I did not have to reprogram the module.
@@Woodified thank you!
Do I need to calibrate after replacing? I did replace and now my computer show me the Master cylinder sensor problem ?
I did not need to reprogram the part.
replaced ABS Module on 09 Toyota Camry SE - got part from Junkyard for 106$ however, when we finished with the new one and reconnected the battery the alarm system kept going off. i stuck my key in the ignition to attempt to stop the alarm and tried to turn the car on but it would not connect. any ideas on what to try next? anything helps! thanks in advance.
PS: did not have traction control, made sure to get ABS module w/o that as well. part fit in perfect and no issue other than the alarm and actually starting the car.
I'm in the process of ordering this part for my 2007 Camry because it's having the same issue! How did you know that you just needed the ABS control module, and not the ABS pump?
My brakes felt normal. i.e. I didn't need to push the brakes harder to stop and my brakes were not locking up. So I decided to try replacing the module first. My auto recycler would not sell me just the module so I now have an spare pump as I didn't need to replace it. Replacing the ABS pump makes the repair more difficult as you'll need to bleed the lines.
Great video and info! My 07 Camry XLE V6 did the same thing, schizo dash and no cold air. Found a used ABS module at a local junk yard for $100. Works perfectly. My fifth digit VIN is K, the junked car it came off was E, a 2009 model. But both are WITHOUT traction control, which is the only way it will work.
Thanks for sharing your experience. $100 is a good deal.
Awesome good to know. I just bought an 07 Camry with a 5th digit vin of E, can I expect this problem? Im trying to see if its worth keeping. Ugh. Thank you!
It can be a low cost fix if you do-it-yourself.
Wait so if nothing of the needles move will changing this solve the problem of a 2002 Toyota Camry as well or can it also just be a fuse?
For me the needles still moved. Just not how they should. They would bounce, drop off completed, and start working again, then go crazy again.
@@Woodified damn u replied fast thanks man, but what do you think that is? Nothing moves on the car not even when its not
I keep looking up how to fix a speedometer that doesn't move on a 2002 Toyota camry and I keep finding different videos im just confused.
I'm not a mechanic so I don't know. You could take your car to a local mechanic and get it diagnosed.
Your issue sounds a little different. You may need to start trouble shooting. You mentioned about maybe your car's problem is a fuse. Have a look at the fuses to rule out that as a possible cause.
Had the same problem. Replaced the module and every problem solved except the abs light. ABS light is still on. Any suggestions on this?
Sorry I'm not a mechanic. Sounds like another issue. Have you gotten the error code?
Check brake fluid level; check electrical connections; check fuses.
Hmm...I have something similar but I dont have an abs/brake light illuminated. FWIW, tach works well too. Speedo doesnt move. All the other gauges work fine. No CEL, brake or other warning lights. Suggestions? This is an 07 4cy and does have ABS FWIW.
Sounds like its something different. Try a search at toyotanation dot com
Its the speed sensor that goes in the transmission.
I am so glad I found this video! I have the exact same issue and am going to be looking to order a part right away. Do you happen to know the part number of the ABS module you installed?
Sorry no. My auto recycler asked for a digit from the VIN and whether or not my car had traction control.
Great video. Great detail. I had a choice of a module with 79,000 miles on it for 234 usd after sales tax. Other option was 123,000 for about 205 without tax, etc. took me about 15m. Unfortunately my abs and brake light and speedometer seem to be coming back Intermittently. I made sure to clean the o ring around the new module. I also reflashed the ecu to ensure it didn’t just need a reflash to clear the codes. I’m trying it at later today.. anyone else experience this?
Did you get your issue fixed?
Hey brother I like your video it was very helpful how do I know that my car does not have anti skid control I have the same car you do same year as well
If you have traction control there should be a button somewhere. Look in the owners manual for what it would look like. If you can’t find the button chances are you don’t have traction control.
my girlfriend has a 2007 toyota Yaris, and the abs, esc and tracktion-control is showing up in the dash.. If i change the ABS controll Module, will they go away?
Here's a video of what my dash lights and gauges were doing: th-cam.com/video/b-cyRY4av3U/w-d-xo.html. Replacing the ABS module fixed the problem.
My ABS light is the only thing on, my speedometer works fine. The mechanic said it probably is the module. They had replaced my rear brakes too.
Hopefully they don't charge thousands to replace.
Brother i have toyota camry 2008 instruments cluster showing vsc system check what is the problum
Sorry I'm not a mechanic. Keep searching the answer is on the innerwebs somewhere
Dont you have to replace
The whole system? i have a Lexus Gs460 its makes brake warning buzzer and all light warning are on?
I only replaced the module as shown in the video. I'm still driving the same car and have not had another issue with the ABS control module since replacing it.
Is that part number visable..I noticed that if I have Traction Control it is one type and without TC it is another.
Yes if you have traction control your part will be different then if you don't have traction control.
