Detailed Product Overview

This Dorman ABS control module, part number 599-861, is built for 2000-2002 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2000-2002 Chevrolet Suburban 1500, 2000-2002 GMC Yukon, 2000-2002 GMC Yukon XL 1500, and 2002 Cadillac Escalade applications equipped with RPO code NW7 traction control. It is engineered as a replacement for the original module used on these GM vehicles and cross-references OE part number 12475631 for the same application. The module is designed to restore ABS control function without requiring programming, making it a practical service part for brake electronics repair on these platforms.

What It Helps Fix

• ABS warning light caused by internal module failure
• Loss of anti-lock brake control
• Traction control faults tied to the ABS module
• Relay-related failure in the original GM module
• Brake system electronic communication issues

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and RPO code NW7 before installation. The module mounts with a bolt-on design and uses three connectors with a 16-pin configuration. No programming is required, but proper brake system diagnosis should be completed before replacing the module to confirm the fault is in the ABS control unit.

Quality Assurance

Dorman’s OE FIX approach replaces a known failure point with a newly manufactured design intended for greater durability than the original relay-based module used on affected GM vehicles. Part number 599-861 is built to service the listed Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC applications with a direct-fit replacement format.
