The ABS control unit is located on the right side of the fuse box inside the engine bay. To extract it, you need to unclip and lift the coolant reservoir and the fuse box. Once the necessary space is cleared, remove the six Torx screws located on the edge of the module, which secure the control unit to the pump, and it can be extracted.

Once the connector is disconnected, you can proceed with replacing the control unit.

When disassembling the fuse box, be careful not to break the plastic clips that secure it, and the coolant reservoir must be placed in the correct positions.

Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
