♦ Absolute cleanliness is required when working on the anti-lock
brake system. It is not permitted to use any products which
contain mineral oil, such as oils, greases etc.
♦ Thoroughly clean all unions and the adjacent areas before
loosening. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as
brake cleanser, petrol, thinners or similar.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover.
♦ After separating the control unit/hydraulic unit, use the trans‐
port protection for the contact pins.
♦ If repairs cannot be carried out immediately, carefully cover or
seal open components. (Use sealing plugs from repair kit
1 H0 698 311 A).
♦ Only use lint-free cloths.
♦ Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to fitting.
♦ Only use genuine packed parts.
♦ When the system is open, do not work with compressed air
and do not move the vehicle.
♦ Make sure not to touch any contact surfaces on the connector,
pressure sensor and control unit as well as the silicone gel by
hand or with objects.
♦ During painting operations, the electronic control unit can be
exposed to a maximum temperature of 95 °C for only a short
period, and to a maximum of 85 °C for longer periods (approx.
2 hours). Ensure that no brake fluid enters connectors.

6.1.4 Installing new control unit

WARNING

Severe shocks (e.g. dropping, impact) may destroy the control


unit. The control unit must not then be used.

• Clean surfaces before assembling.


– Push all seals -A- over contact pins slightly.
– Without canting it, place control unit onto hydraulic unit.
The seals are thus moved to end position.
– Bolt hydraulic unit and control unit with enclosed, new Torx
socket head bolts.

Note

♦ A new control unit may be mounted on an existing hydraulic


unit max. twice to guarantee impermeability of the elastic seal.
♦ A control unit which has already been operated in a vehicle
must not be installed a second time.

6.1.5 Installing control unit and hydraulic unit

Note

♦ Remove sealing plugs from new hydraulic unit only when the
corresponding brake line is going to be fitted.
♦ If sealing plugs are removed too early from the hydraulic unit,
brake fluid can escape, and it can then no longer be guaran‐
teed that the unit can be sufficiently filled and bled.
♦ When installing, ensure that rubber dampers are not pressed
out of bracket.

– Install in reverse order.

– Press adapter into adapter guide to stop; it must then be en‐


gaged.
– Without canting it, place control unit onto hydraulic unit.
– Bolt hydraulic unit and control unit with the new Torx bolts
which are enclosed.

Note

♦ A new control unit may be mounted on an existing hydraulic


unit max. twice to guarantee impermeability of the elastic seal.
♦ A control unit which has already been operated in a vehicle
must not be installed a second time.

6.2.5 Installing control unit and hydraulic unit

Note

♦ Remove sealing plugs from new hydraulic unit only when the
corresponding brake line is going to be fitted.
♦ If sealing plugs are removed too early from the hydraulic unit,
brake fluid can escape, and it can then no longer be guaran‐
teed that the unit can be sufficiently filled and bled.

– Install in reverse order.

1 - Bleed front left and front right brake calipers simultaneously.


2 - Bleed rear left and rear right brake calipers simultaneously.
– Leave bleeder valves open with brake fluid hoses connected
until brake fluid free from air bubbles flows out.
Then hydraulic unit must be bled again via function “Basic setting”
