I have a new abs module sat on the shelf, I am about to pass onto someone who needs one, however I have recently been thinking that a new module may need to be programming to the car? I don’t want to pass it on unless I know it will work.
I remember the 4 channel ones required this but a replacement 2 channel ?
Thanks

It'll need the usual reset if its brand new. No biggie. If it's 2 channel it might be possible from OP-COM.
What is actually changed by the reset?

It sets the zero point in the ABS. When new the unit knows nowt, it just needs to learn 'normal'. It's a nothing job, just click the reset button.

Thanks. I was interested because they blew a bulb when they did mine so still curious as to what went wrong.

How does one do the initial reset? I've got access to op-com, is it something within the ABS controller there?

It has to be done by Lotus with their special yellow cable

Some will do it for free, others want paying for their time.

Thought only for the Exige 4 channed] ABS set-up you need a Lotus dealer cable.
But for a new standard VX220 (NA or T) ABS module learning you can go to your local vauxhall dealer (Tech 2 )...

That's on the 4 channel. The 2 channel can go through opcom

I'll be having a look tonight or tomorrow, so will see what I find when I connect up opcom will report back!

I've just had a look around in OPCOM with the current ABS module installed to try find how out the reset works.
In the version I'm running when I go into the ABS controller all I get is greyed out boxes, other than fault codes.
Am I missing something? Wondering if wrong version of OPCOM or something or whether there's some other way in?
I guess it could also be the cheap opcom being the issue, but if so then I wonder how I was able to programme the immobiliser to recognise new keys previously... hmmm
Thanks
