Thanks for that, it would imply that programming isn't needed but don't let that put anyone off from posting further about this topic.

I guess you will only know for sure when you fit the 2nd hand part.
Are you fitting the whole pump or only the ECU?

Yes, changing just the ECU will save you a lot of work, any faults with the unit are almost always component related and are quite often nothing more than a bad solder joint inside the ECU.
There are quite a few videos on you tube showing people repairing ABS ECU's.

Funnily enough soldered joints - I had nil voltage to any wheel sensor nor the brake fluid level sensor and after examination . soldering suspicious joints I now have three wheel sensors and the level sensor with voltage !
Unable to get the last sensor voltage hence the replacement module.
Thanks for the reply much appreciated.
P.S will update the outcome as a Peugeot is a Citroen in disguise.

Some of the ECU's use no solder on the header pins, they use eye of needle compliant pin technology, the pins are just push fitted into solder lined holes in the circuit board . . . you would think they were designing them to fail wouldn't you!
Hope it goes well and all is good.

You can try to bake it in oven to re-flow solder.
Just google for VGA oven repair.
