Default Mine hasn't died...yet. :/ It is a common failure, though. Are you sure yours has gone south?...

...confirm by checking for any error codes (DTCs) and posting here; those who have replaced thier ABS modules will know the symptoms. :P Good luck!

Default I've been driving around with mine dead for too long. Go the Module Master route...

Thats my plan (once I find the time to do it) and this seems to be more of an inevitable issue than a common one with these cars.<ul><li><a href="http://www.modulemaster.com">Module Master</a></li></ul>

Default I was doing that too until I had to stop semi-quick and the rear brakes...

locked up because there's no brake pressure distibution without it. Very dangerous. Not talking about ABS... basic brake management.
