[s-type] ABS Module, 2000 V8

I have a beautiful v8 w, 21000 miles on it and need to replace the
ABS module. The dealer diagnosed this after my DSC & CATS fault
messages appeared. I have found a used one with the proper
programming in place for $750, the dealer wants $1600 for a new one
installed. Anyone know how difficult these are to install??
Thanks–

Wish I was home as I have a stack of official Jaguar training manuals at home. I found them
on Craigs List when a Jag technician was getting out of the business and he sold everything
for the last 18 years. These show the locations of all the major bits on the car and testing
procedures.

Other suggestion would be to find a factory service manual for the car. Best suggestion I
have is to look on Ebay as I have been told that you can buy them there. They are I believe
then sent to you on CD or DVD or you could download one off of the internet.

Changing the actual module should not be that difficult (if its the one I think, its inside the
engine compartment on the front left hand side with a lot of brake plumbing coming out of it)
but how in the world you bleed and get it set up is a good question.
