Excellent video. The part about removal of the connector with moving the clips aided with the removal of the connector. Could not of been possible without this step.

Great presentation. Love that you did it all in a parking lot by the highway!

Tips: - remove the fuse box! Makes it so much easier. Two 8mm bolts and one 14mm bolt. Also disconnect connector inside. -remove the 3 T25 torx on the abs bracket to give you room Use a SHORT E5 torx to remove. And a swivel socket wrench

T25, thank you!

I just replaced the BCM on my 2004 Volvo S80 by following this video. The hardest part for me was removing the air filter box. I found that using a 3/8" socket on a long extension and firmly pressing down on each of the three 4 prong retainers compressed them enough and aided in removal of the box. Hope this helped.

Oh thank you so much! I bought a rare tuned 2004 S60 for a restoration project, and recently had a broken coolant hose (no overheating, no damage, lots of running). Swapped the ECM back for a tuned one finally (as all the issues seemed to be gone) - and bang!, "Brake failure, stop safely!", also "BCM NOT CHECKED" error in the DTC list mode. What could it be, assuming a brief CAN shut-off? ECM? CEM gone electrocuted? Nope, this little thing has a tiny air vent like seen on harddrives, and the coolant from the hose hit the transmission, evaporated and flew in there, where it shorted the crystal, hanging the MCU. Thought of trying to drive to some service station, yet thanks to your video just took the BCM off and cut it open to see the mess. Will re-install today once the new seals are hard enough, though by the test (open, free-standing BCM connected to the harness) just a good "brainwash" was enough to fix this babe for no cost.

@@oshertzarfati3178 Yep, tho I used a petroleum solvent instead. See, 7 months already, and good as new. I re-opened it somewhat recently (wanted to re-seal it with a non-acidic compound, although by how it looked after 5 months I figured it was pretty much pointless - still did it because better safe than sorry). Still to warn you: like people said, my case was extremely rare (had the board mostly clean with a single large drop almost perfectly on the crystal), so it may or may not work for you (the symptoms, however, were pretty obvious in my case). So far I've managed to successfully repair every failing module (in my case, DIM, ECM, BCM, the mirror board and the alarm, also modified the buttons to be LED-lit with a very close-to-stock look), so feel free to ask on those.

I tried the 1/4 hand ratchet on a 2005 volvo xc 90 It worked only for the 2 screws easiest to access. After an hour or two and gave up trying to get the third one the deepest in. there was no room to swing the ratchet handle even if I got the socket on the screw head.I needed a power ratchet to overcome that problem and it had to be a thin extended reach one. Space there is very tight. A cordless extended reach 1/4 cost about $180 /tool, battery and the charger/ I went with a $21 air ratchet /I already had an air compressor/, I bought one at Harbor Freight. A CENTRAL PNEUMATIC 1/4 " AIR RATCHET WRENCH ITEM 34900. It fit in the tight space there with ease and I had the screw out in 5 minutes. Advice : Spread some cloth in the area you work. If you drop a screw or a small torx socket in there, you will most likely never see it again.

Two important points: (1) Need a 1/4 drive TORX SOCKET to remove the 3 torx bolts underneath the BCM and (2) the connector cover engages and pulls back SLIDING RAILS within both sides of the connector that release the connector from the BCM (the rails were why he moved the cover back and forth and why the cover did not move freely)

Typically if the ABS light is coming on intermittantly is it the computer module or also the hydraulic unit that should be replaced with it?

Also... if you buy a used module you DO NOT have to reprogram. All lights come off (plug/play). I still recommend this vendor for rebuilds as they are THE BEST and you'll have more safety and reliability with their part.

you must find a part with the same part and modle number to your car ,e.g diesel , pertol 4x4 2wd they are all differant in cluding what year, and yesy it has to be programed not by main dealer.

Thanks for the video! I have a question, some say on the forums the error lights on the dash have to be cleared at a dealership, but in the video you said the error lights were off once the new module was installed. Is this if I send the original module in to Xemodex to be rebuilt? Or did you clear the error codes and not show that in the video?

@XemodexInc

+Todd Wilson Hi Todd. The error codes in the video are related to the brake control module. Once the module is repaired and re-installed into the vehicle, the error codes should automatically clear. Sometimes the BCM may induce codes with other modules, but if the BCM is repaired then the codes should clear. Particular error lights like the SRS have to be cleared at the dealer, but the BCM does not set off this error light.

Trying to understand the logical thinking behind this question. Giving up...

How do you get the electrical connector off the ABS controller? I broke it in several places trying to get it off with a screwdriver and it still won't budge.

Hi, do you have to bleed the brakes after this?

You advice was to disconnect the battery before removing the BCM. Now if I was following Xemodex's BMC flow chart, one of steps involved checking for voltage at the BCM connector. So after taking out the connector, I then reconnect the battery in order the test the connector?

@XemodexInc

Hi Nik. We suggest that you keep the battery connected and follow the flow chart to determine the fault. Once you have determined the fault with your vehicle, you can disconnect the battery and attempt to remove the BCM.

Ok!

Question: I intend to remove my ABS control module for a rebuild. I'm wondering if I can still drive the car after removing the module?

Does anyone know where this module is located on a 2012 S60?

Does anyone know where it is situated on 2011 v60 1.6D

Thanks! Maybe you can help with advice. On the Volvo xc60 (D5244T17) 2012 (P3 platform) the BCM (ABS) needs to be replaced. If I buy the same module, can I adapt it myself with Autel scanner? Do I need to go to the dealer?

Getting the "brake failure stop safely" message only on the first start up of the day, especially if car sits for more than a day. It has never occurred while driving, and the code clears on warm start, only to show up again next cold start. Does this sound like a BCM dying?

low battery voltage or bad connection at fuse 7 or 8 (in v50 s/v40 2004-2006) may give this dashboard message. and may include no start and immobiliser codes

My XC90 has multiple error lights: ANTI-SKID SERVICE REQUIRED, BRAKE ASSIST SERVICE REQUIRED, BLIS SYSTEM FUNCTION REDUCED. The messages come on all together or not at all. Does that sound like the BCM or the CEM?

@XemodexInc

Hi Ty. I spoke to our tech and he said it could be the BCM, CEM or DEM. He said in some years the LIN network for the BLIS system also had issues with the wiring. He said it's hard to tell unless we have the diagnostic trouble codes (DTC). He suggests that you first get your vehicle scanned for diagnostic trouble codes at a Volvo specialty shop or dealer that has the ability to scan all the modules in your car's network. If you can provide us with these diagnostic trouble codes we can help you determine the fault.

Just remove the BCM and wash the insides :) Some also report the MCU soldering may rarely corrode and fail, not a tough one too. Also some report the connector pins may wobble in the PCB if corroded enough, solder them in in this case.
