How would you recommend I remove the EBCM I watched your video but on the Sierra I don't have that kind of room to loosen the screws. Do I need to loosen the bracket?

Thanks for your help

EBCM is bad the ABS light and brake light are coming on when the truck is turned off the ABS pumps run until the battery dies. I have had this happen three times. I pulled the ABS fuse and the pump stops running which leads me to believe the EBCM is bad
