2005 abs brake actuator

Maybe one day there'll be a recall. But only if everyone complains to Toyota corporate or nhsta

If you can do this on your own, you're already saving a bunch of money. In getting a used part, you may have to do it again when the used part fails

 

I like this Dorman unit:

Dorman 587-765 - Free Shipping on Orders Over $99 at Summit Racing

Dorman® 587-765 - ABS Control Module

May be cheaper somewhere else, but as far as I know has a lifetime warranty...

 

I have an 08, accumulator pump went out, after some research by myself and a salvage yard guy.
Decided that the part number does not matter... I believe there are 3 different #'s that are used.
Best guess is they are all the same, but with different suppliers.
The replacement part # from Toyota is the same regardless of what the actual part number is in your particular car. You could have any one of the 3 available and in any year of car.. best we could figure out.
The one I put into my car had a number that did not match the one that came out, and it seems to work just fine.
You might try to find one that's the same year just to be sure.. there were some changes.. 04-06. And 07-09 I think. So.. I know there were some changes at some point.
But it's very likely that any one of the pumps will work.
A newer one might be less likely to fail.. since it's newer and likely less miles.
I got one for $250 plus shipping.
Took me 5 hours to swap it . Then had to bleed the brakes. If you don't have Techstream you will need a dealer to bleed the brakes.
Good luck.

I found this from a Japanese site/seller (Amayama) which I found other parts much cheaper than here in the US, but not in this case:

Brake tube & clamp for Toyota Prius NHW20L - Auto parts

44500-47090, which supersedes to 44500-47091 on US online Toyota Parts sites. So if you go the used route probably better to go with part ending -91.

 

Toyota had a situation with the brake accumulator assemblies on 2nd generation Prius. There was an extended coverage for additional mileage and an extended time period to have this repaired under extended warranty. My 08 Prius brake actuator assembly went out in June of 08. Unfortunately I was 2 months out of the extended warranty. The Part number of a new brake actuator from a Toyota dealer is the new part number for the new replacement part that apparently solves the problem of the failures of these assemblies. An old part number or a salvaged part from an older model will have a part that is susceptible to the same failure as the one you are replacing.

I don't have any special knowledge or insight but I was able to learn about this situation from a Toyota Dealer and Toyota Technician who was kind enough to take the time to talk me through the repair and give me the confidence to do it myself.

There seemed to be a question about the different part numbers and I hope this post contributes to clearing up any confusion. Any part you can now get from a Toyota Dealer is the new part. Good luck with your repair!

 

If you kindly open this document you’ll find that the aftermarket also tries to address any issues with the original design, and provides clear evidence of the warranty I suggested:

You most likely will need to pay a core charge which is refunded once your old one is returned to the seller/Dorman.

 

Do you guys replace the resistor from the donor car when you swap these out?

 

For myself the Toyota actuator did come packaged with a new resistor that calibrated perfectly to the new Toyota brake actuator. One of the steps post installation is to calibrate the new brake actuator.

 

I bought mine from Oalthe Toyota for $1,134. Since it was a Toyota Dealer it was a Toyota part. At the time this was the lowest online price from a Toyota dealer, there may be a different Toyota dealer with a lower online price now. It came with a typical 1 year warranty. As I understand any Toyota dealer would honor the warranty just bring in the proof of purchase and the failed part. So a local Toyota dealer would honor the warranty for this Toyota part and replace the faulty part. I actually called Oalthe Toyota and asked about the warranty and they were the ones who told me this.I hope this answered your question okay.

 

What are you guys paying for labor to get this done?

 

Rph74 I was quoted about $1300 by Toyota Dealership to replace. An independent mechanic who knew about these vehicles and had access to the proper information and tools may do it for much less. I ended up doing it myself.

I would recommend anyone who wants to do this job themselves download the Prius Factory Service Manual and read the entire section on replacing the Brake Actuator including the after install calibration/initialization brake bleed procedures. Then you would know exactly what is involved with this job when you interacted with a mechanic or made a decision to do it yourself.

 

@jzchen Did you buy it? Did it work?

 

I have a Prius v, just trying to help find options for people...

Thanks for sharing! There was a single bad review of the Dorman unit so I was quite worried I made a bad suggestion.
