Brakes problem
1998 Pontiac Sunfire 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

It has been a long time since i have replaced a master cylinder with this type of ABS setup. What I would like to know is how do I safely remove/reinstall the ABS control unit on the master cylinder if I do not have a TECH1 scanner to relieve the gear tension on the ABS motor pack? thanks for your help!

there is no safe way to do this repair until first using a TECH I or TECH II scan tool to release gear tension..
