TRACS ABS Mal-function 850 1996

The TRACS and ABS light comes on intermittently on my wifes 850-GLT. I took it to the shop and they pulled codes 314/324 RR Wheel sensor signal intermittent fault. The recommended fix was to replace the ABS control module. The part number is 860226 w/tracs. Now my question(s). How difficult is it to replace this item, where is it located, and where can I purchase one?
Thanks,

Robert.

    Before you replace anything, you might want to go to the volvospeed website and then to repairs and then to Bay 13 and read what it has on ABS

    Good luck.

      Before you do anything, let me warn you - I just did this repair. I don't care what anyone says - It's not THAT EASY! Those silly E5 Torx Screws are damn near impossible to remove without stripping.... and don't even get me started on the angle in which you have to contort your wrist to get them out!

      I'm not saying you shouldn't do it yourself, just be careful. Make sure you use the right socket and do NOT rush!!!! If you take your time and are extremely cautious, you will probably be OK. I'm just hoping I never have to do this again as I found it an extremely aggravating and frustrating process.
