Hmm where is this module located? Is it marked in anyway?

The module is located on the driver side close to the master cylinder.It has two electical connectors attached to it.The large one is the one I cleaned.Don,t use a wire brush to clean the connector.You could short something out.The small connector go the the ABS pump.Hope this helps.Chooper2

The module I'm talking about is inside the cab, on the firewall, by the brake pedal.
