Abstract
At least one surface contact is formed upon a circuit substrate disposed within a housing for electronic control unit for an anti-lock brake system. The surface contact is electrically connected to a programming port of a microprocessor mounted upon the circuit substrate. A probe is extended into housing and into electrical contact with the surface contact. A algorithm for controlling the operation of the anti-lock brake system is then transferred through the probe and into the microprocessor, where it is stored for use during anti-lock braking operations.
