Recently purchased 96 Ranger 4x4 3.0. Previous owners had Ford dealership troubleshoot their ABS. Wheel sensors replaced and the dealer says the final problem is in the control module. It's evidently in the dash. Have consulted two printed manuals and a Fort TSO- can't find how to access and replace that module. Have pulled the center bezel off. Don't see the module. Do see a metal panel that sits behind the radio.

Where is that module located, and how do I get to it?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Alrighty, Paul, here's how it worked out.

Despite what they said, the critter did indeed have the ECU up front in the engine compartment. It's not obvious; it's next to the radiator on the battery side and sits behind cables and such. But it is there.
