2001-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5 ABS EBCM Electronic Brake Control Module
The 2001-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5 ABS EBCM (Electronic Brake Control Module) is an essential component in the Corvette’s braking system, controlling various aspects of the vehicle’s anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic stability control.
key specifications for this module:
- Model Compatibility: The EBCM is specifically designed for the 2001-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5, and it works with the vehicle’s integrated ABS and traction control systems.
- Functionality: It controls the ABS system, which prevents wheel lock-up during braking, and the stability control system, which helps the car maintain control under slippery conditions or aggressive cornering.
- Connection: The module interfaces with sensors on each wheel and communicates with the vehicle’s onboard computer to adjust braking pressure as necessary.
- ABS Control: The module detects wheel speed and adjusts the braking force applied to each wheel, ensuring the car maintains traction and stability during emergency braking or adverse road conditions.
- Traction Control: Works with the ABS to limit wheel spin under acceleration, particularly useful in wet or icy conditions, ensuring optimal performance and handling.
- Location: The EBCM is typically located under the vehicle, close to the brake master cylinder or near the front wheel wells, and it is often a part of the braking assembly.
- Common Issues: Over time, the EBCM may fail due to internal component wear, corrosion, or electrical issues, potentially leading to loss of ABS or traction control functionality. Symptoms of a malfunction include ABS warning lights on the dashboard and reduced braking performance.
- Replacement: Replacement involves either purchasing a new EBCM or rebuilding an existing one, as long as the module is still in good condition.
- OE Part Numbers: The part number for the 2001-2004 C5 Corvette EBCM is 19125843.
