Holden ABS info required - Thanks

[sevenohms]

Hi,

It's pretty simple when you look at it. Assuming you have the ABS module in the larger photo (its the same as the Falcon one, both made by Bosch). I think you'll find the non traction as a 5.3 version and the traction one an 8.1 (google it, i could be slightly off on the numbers, but version 5 and version 8 are correct).

(edit: I googled it. 5.3 is the non traction control version, 5.7 is the traction version, and 8.1 is the dynamic stability control version, and again the euros have lots of great info, they replace the chips in them)

If you look at the pipes, the rear circuit in the larger photo is the furthest from the booster, and connects to the LR/RR half of the ABS module.

The front one (closest to the booster) connects to the FR/FL half of the booster.

I found it is hard to find info on the modules in Oz, but if you look up Bosch ABS and 5.3 or 8.0 you'll find the Europeans love playing around with them.

I also found that there is a sweet ABS module reader available. I found it invaluable to read the codes from the ABS and diagnose faults.

Also note that the smaller pipes are for the slave cylinders and the larger from the master cylinders. So you'll find that the writing when looking from the top is LF / MC # / RF (for the front circuit). Same for the rear.

Also in IMHO, as long as the left and right is on the same "MC" it probably doesn't matter, as long as the wiring aligns, if you dive into how it works. So for simplicity, its obviously best to get them right.
