Having just removed my abs ecu on my 1997 S70 due to it failing its mot because the tracs/abs light stayed on during the test(I`m assuming its the ECU fault as on the thread)
I came across a slight difference in the removal procedure
Note the following for easier access on the S70 (possibly the same on V70`s aswell)
1) You will have to remove the entire airbox assembly including maf sensor unit still attached (dont forget to undo the jubilee clip and remove intake pipe for turbo and the front intake pipe and unclip the hose support unit on side of airbox)
2) Unclip the additional fuse box mounted on the side of the suspension mounting area and lay it to one side you do not have to disconnect it from the loom (Where your strut brace would go if you have one)
3) You will need a 6E torx socket to remove the four bolts 2 as in the picture on the thread and 2 further bolts at the rear of the unit one in each corner you`ll probably have to feel for these as you can`t see them
4) Once you`ve removed the bolts pull the ecu down and off the rods that protrude from bottom of the abs modulator (The big thing that you don`t have to remove)
5) At this stage the wiring is still attached to the ECU Prise open the clip securing the multi plug cover don`t force it as it can snap
6) Slide out the 2 strange looking hook like clips keep pulling on these until you`ve got about 2 inches of clip showing then the whole multiplug assembly should just lift off the ECU
And hey presto jobs a goodun and you should have in your hands the ABS ECU
