Are abs modules married to the car that they originally came from?
some guy is selling exhange units on ebay... so, i was wondering if this is a possible route.
2000 v70r is the car.
P1618.... haven't gotten a real confirmation from anyone on this. most of the searches led to a second CEL along with P1618.
Anyone know how this can be generated from changing light bulbs in my instrument cluster? I had the entire thing unpluged, but when I reconnected it, the stupid arrow started flashing and got a P1618. Cannot clear it... keeps popping back up.
abs module related?

I don't ever remember being asked?
1618 is a TCM communication problem related to the failed ABS module.
Contact Victor as just posted here ?

1618 if i rememebr right is no communication on the high side bus.
it is not clearing because there are other codes stored. (ABS or possibly trans)
The abs module is likely the problem.

Likely ABS Module.
Located next to the ABS hydraulic pump.
Need Torx E5 socket to remove it:

There are many advertising the fix for this (Rocha, Module Master, BBA, ebay etc and etc.) but I strongly recommend BBA for the following reasons:
- They are authorized BOSCH repair facility in the US
- The rebuilt ABS Module is warrantied for life.
- I replaced mine and a friend's ABS Module with units from BBA, so far so good.
- BBA is Inexpensive....2 options:
a. Remove your own unit, send it in for repair, they will ship it back, you install it.
Cost: $69.00 ABS Module + $20.00 shipping.
Pro: You save $30.00 (see below)
Con: you will be driving WITHOUT ABS Module, liability issue: NO ABS, No Speedometer.
b. Get a mirror and read off your existing ABS Module Part Number, Call BBA for a rebuilt Unit, they send you a rebuilt Unit, you ship them your defective Unit.
Cost: $99.00 ABS Module + $20.00 shipping.
Pro/Con: Opposite of the above.
