WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Ford Pickup, 2003 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2003 Ford F450 Super Duty, 2003 Ford Excursion, and 2003 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A self-test of the solenoid valve coils and the pump motor is performed when the vehicle is started. During starting, the brake pedal must be released to run the self-test. If the brake pedal is depressed or a failed brake switch occurs, the self-test is run at 6 km/h (4 mph) regardless of brake pedal position.
The anti-lock brake control module and the hydraulic control unit can be replaced separately.
