Hello, may I have a question, I have damaged the abs on a 2009 Toyota Camry hybrid, can it be repaired, or what part of the unit is being replaced, what car is it suitable for too?
I don’t know how to repair the ABS, I bought a new ones from the dealership and replaced it myself. However, u can call the junk yard and buy used one. It will saves you a lot of money,
I just starter today with the same issue hcu module but ford is charging me 2,900 dlls to do tge job its almost what my vehicle cost at this point 2013 ford edge. Thank you for your help
The job is not that hard, the only thing that I have problem with is the bolts on the battery bracket. But u can do all this work then tow the car to the mechanic to ask him to program the module for you. Please do not throw away the old ones, he’s going to need to use it to programming
@@vallynsworld awesome, I'll pick up my vehicle tomorrow from Ford, tow it home and order the part I'll do the job my self. I will keep the old part. Thank you so much
@@jonathan_0124if u can bleed the brake yourself too then tow it to the mechanic and have it program it, I have the procedure layout in the video. Good luck and save money
No, I don’t think that’s MAF sensor related. fuses burnt more likely causes by sorted wire. Example, electrical wires exposes from frayed electrical and touches the body of your car can cause a short, it might cause the fuses to burn out, or resistor going bad than cause a surge in voltage that could cause the fuses to overload…I’m not a electrical expert, i think u should take the car to a professional that is specialize in electrical repair. Good luck
Only problem with this video is that I tried to follow all the steps but My wife refused to give me glass dish so i used a cardboard box. Nicely and properly made video, I watched it all the way. Thanks
U need mechanics that are good with diagnostic and electrical, they have to test electrical system using wiring diagram to see if it’s the ABS module has problem, relays, fuses, the PCM or the wire between them has problem before replacing parts. The thing that u can do for yourself is check for blown fuse first (ABS). Look in your user manual for the fuse diagram
Thank you and Congrats on ur success! and for sharing info like this thats sorely needed by so many people who have no recourse other than to try to do it themselves...
2003 ford focus here.. the ABS and brake dash lights both came on at one point and have been on for quite a while..codes are the dreaded B1342 and C1267... supposedly the module itself is bad...I have looked high and low trying to get Clear definitive feedback and info as to whether the module on these can be swapped with a used but identical yr and part number match...some people have said it needs to be recoded while others stated they were able to swap the module part with no recoding at all.. perhaps its dependent on whether you have a newer ford verses an old one..or whether the part was a general match or an exact part # match.. whatever the case , I ordered on ebay as exact a match as I could get, same yr same part # as well... I intend to swap the module Only, not the pump part since the codes indicated module failure...I will repost back here for others to let you know if it was possible without a recode...Ive heard you Can reprogram these with the Forscan software and a laptop...Im prepared to try that if needed or if I have to, get one of those Autel machines to get it done...antilocks are Very important for safety! we have been using the car without the function but Man! all seems normal till you need to do a panic stop, then you skid with no antilocks! makes you appreciate how they are always there to save you from a skid and help you stop in Much shorter,controlled manner.
Thank you, Ive watched many videos on RU-vid and gather as much information as possible to get the job done properly. My mechanics have the Autel OBD machine but didn’t know how to do it right. It didn’t work well the first and second try until I watch one guy do the programming and ask to borrow the machine and do it myself and it worked! I think it needed to code bc I saw other people send the broken part to get it fixed so they don’t need to code.
Took 2 hours to get in to the actuator and 2 hours to get out. There were two choke point spots were it took 45 min which was lining up the brake lines just right to screw them back in and the orange inverter connector took 30 minutes to remove. Tip: Use a Crows Foot 10 mm flare nut adapter to attach to torque wrench so you don't over torque brake lines on actuator.
I had to get help to try to get it out, the bracket is a pain in the butt, and the orange connector took awhile to get it out too. But seems like you’ve tackled it and everything will be easier after this job!😅
I changed out the actuator at 210,000 and I’m preventing any future actuator contamination and leak by changing the brake fluid every year to prevent water & old brake fluid plastic tubes from contaminating and making it leak ever again! I think the leak happened because I never changed the brake fluid even once since new.
Ok it worked for now, I will tell you taking off that bottom little screw gave me a bit of a challenge, I happened to have a small ratchet handle that takes a single short phillips head and was able to get it loose and out, but was really nervous about if that rascal pops out of my fingers...would be gone forever...ha ha ha but got it all together, and thank you very much for you to the point easy example...

That was my first fixing attempt and I’ve been working on many projects since. I enjoyed working on cars and it’s saved me tons of money from able and not dealing with dishonest mechanics anymore ❤️❤️❤️
@@vallynsworld Well all mine needed was that cleaning out spray...its back up and running code free.... Again thanks for having an older prius, I love Prius I have sold a bunch of them as an Autobroker, plus my whole family drives them...for the most part, most reliable car I have ever owned... but I drive an old 2009 with 226,000 miles and when that light kicked on, was fantastic to be a cheap and easy fix....thanks again. Jim
It’s Autel, I don’t know the model, I borrowed the mechanic’s machine, you have to look for machine that can program modules, u can finish the job, bleed the brakes, then lift the car up, 1) disconnect the “new ABS” 2) connect the old ABS then follow the steps in the video…3) connect the new ABS the program, the OBD will tell u when to disconnect and instructions
Im sorry I don’t think we live in the same town plus it’s pretty easy to replace (except two crazy bolt) but the only thing is you need the fancy professional OBD machine to program the ABS. Ask your mechanic to do it for u
Your video...shows very dangerous practices..please learn safety procedures before tackling automotive repairs...when you were removing wheel lugs...you could have hurt yourself very badly.
What is the safety procedure for removing nuts? Removing using criss cross pattern and tighten it to specs are not safe enough? Then what is your professional need to do that I haven’t done and I’d love you to enlighten me. This videos is one of my first videos and I’ve bought the repair manual and followed the specs since. My car is running and in great condition for the last 3 years. All I do is maintenance and I have the disclaimer on RU-vid to warn people to do their own research since I’m not the professional is enough warning don’t you think?
I just installed a used module on a customer’s vehicle not knowing this and ive got the system bleed but all the light are on cause I didn’t know i had to rewrite the vin😑 thanks for the video great job!
Hi! What car is that? Yours? Would You recomend it for me? I have prius 2006 now, wanna buy something newer as a second vehicle. What would you reccomend?)) Same easy fixable vehicle
I have a 2007 Prius, it’s easy to fix, 2004-2008 share the same specs. But do buy the factory repair manual, they’ll have so much of details how to fix things including electrical wiring diagram, it shows you how to diagnose the problems…
Look at the bracket of the ABS, it’s all the way towards the wall, and you have to go underneath the car to get to it. Trace your hands on the metal bracket, you will reach it
There’s also an abs bleeding procedure that should be done anytime the hydraulic pump is opened on the system. The system has to be bled manually and electronically with the scanner along with the module reprogramming. Looks like you got it fixed but the first shop should’ve known that. Might’ve saved you a lot of time.
The first shop replaced master cylinder and brake booster and did bleed the brakes but nothing works bc they didn’t replace the right part…which is the ABS. They attempted to take out the ABS but only got one of the bolt out of two on the battery bracket then gave up and asked me to take it to the dealership…all their sloppy job cost me tons money…incompetent job
I had the mechanic do the bleeding procedure, it's easy to do but after taking the ABS apart a few times. I don't want to deal with the bleeding anymore.
@@pokeyboy1 The first mechanic changed out brake booster and master cylinder and attempted to remove the ABS but after attempted to remove one of the bolt, they decided it's not worth messing with it bc tge other bolts are difficult to get to. They called me apologized and gave me discount bc the brake still not fixed and they adviced me to take it to the dealership. The dealership wants to charge me $2000 to fix it, that's why I took it home and do it myself.
I bought a used ABS and borrow a professional OBD machine to program the module to transfer the old ABS information to the new used ABS so the computer can read them
I Also did this swap and did a utube video. I endured months of soft pedal and normal bleeding before. I also tried the grenade brake method to activate abs. Had a pro bleed it but apparently they did not have abs activate tool. So I swapped module for a used one. I found out you can't swap the electronics. So I used old one. That finally fixed my problem. What a knuckle buster to get that bracket. Ha ha
I reprogramed the used module from the local junk yard. You can do both, new or used if you have the right scan tool, that's why I called the one of the mechanic I used before to ask them to program and he didn't do it right, so I borrow the scan tool and do it myself. it's not hard to do.
Nice thnks for the detailed list of tools needed, this might be my first big project with my '09 prius! Also I agree with your male friend/husband that you would get more views like that 🤣 jk
Just make sure check the brake line before reinstalling everything back, bleed the brakes, get air bubbles out of the coolant system, then you’re good to go… wish u luck with job
Awesome work! I would have pulled one from a junk yard for $30 or so. Double the work though. If you’re planning to keep the car a while a new part is a good choice. Love how you’re not afraid to tackle something new. This is a pretty involved repair.
Thank you, this is our second repair job that we tackle together, but after this ABS, everything else seems so easy:) I've doing many repair, tune-up since...I love it and will continue to working on cars:)
Nice work but I thought all hybrid Toyota’s required a scan tool to bleed the brakes properly. Preferably the Toyota software to bleed the brakes. You didn’t run into any issues not using a scan tool ??
I bleed manually and it runs fine but I was anal and ask to borrow a friend’s fancy scan tool and bleed it again with the his scan tool. I think u can do without the scan tool. I’m doing my hydraulic control unit now on Ford edge and I’ll do the manual then machine and see how it works or I probably need to program the hydraulic unit with my friend’s fancy diagnostic machine again. I’ll let you guys know if it needs it.
You can bleed Prius 2nd gen brakes by: -Keeping the car off -Having a friend depress the brake pedal or using a pedal depresser on the brake pedal -Loosening whichever brake’s bleeder screw you’re working on (with a tube connected to it that feeds into a reservoir all the way to the bottom with brake fluid at the bottom) The Prius will start pumping pressure into that brake as long as the bleeder is open and bleed the system for you. This method works for all four wheels and can be used to flush the entire brake fluid system!
@@vallynsworld did you end up needing to bleed it using the Toyota tech stream software? I actually just called that same dealership for a quote today in Raleigh - ’m about an hour away from the area.
Love the video! Did the same thing not pushing the HV battery plug down on another repair, caused some crazy stuff! Now doing this on an 05 prius and hoping the used actuator is good! Best of luck on your mechanical adventures!!
Thanks, it’s a lot of work but I enjoyed learning from it and I’m fixing another Hydraulic control unit. It’s much easier than actuator, many things seems easier after actuator for sure!!
Re: the cabin air filter... You didn't say anything about the air flow direction...? If it says up next to the arrow found on one edge of the filter element te the arrow is telling us which side goes up. If it doesn't say up then point the arrow down in the direction of air flow.
U are very good! I am mechanically inclined & I dont think I'd attempt that. Good move on gettn a new one, do it once/ do it right! What a handsome couple! Good for u guys! 👍 SO many things I'm learning on my gen 4.
I've just started working on car recently, I really enjoy it and taking class online to understand cares better. My buddy helped me with this project. He thinks I'm crazy to attempt such a big job! But I learn a lot and would do it more...thanks for the comment
$3,000 dollars to replace what is the equivalent to a master cylinder on a regular gas powered car? I replaced all my brakes wheel cylinders and master cylinder on my GMC pickup for less than $200 bucks. EVs are not worth the money.
I thought the price for the new actuator is ridiculous when I found out how much it is. I've hag this car for 9 years now and it's still running. It's a great cart but three part is not justify for an old car. The dealership is always overcharged!
I think the brake actuator is more expensive than brake pads. I’ve have this hybrid car for over 10 years, the two most expensive components that I’ve replaced was the hybrid battery and ABS (but I did it myself and only paid for parts not labor). Other than that this car is solidly reliable and got 40-45mpg. It’s a great vehicle and save gas.
Thank you for watching, I just started RU-vid since COVID. I was inexperienced with videos but I’m trying to get better with editing…I’ll post more stuff in the future! Poems, music, cooking…
