The ABS in my 2007 Camry Hybrid is on its way out I believe because it is constantly trying to pressurize turning the pump on and off, even with the car off.
Researching this problem I found the my particular Camry Hybrid with the fifth VIN digit B has the most expensive and complicated of all the Camry's ABS Assembly's to deal with. I found that on almost all other Camry's of the same year with the same ABS problems that you can basically just remove and replace the ABS module containing the solenoids while leaving the rest of the abs intact in the vehicle. My pump OEM part # 44510-30270 fifth ViN B is a whole other story. This whole assembly must be removed from the car which means disconnected the brake fluid lines and gets a little messy. So at this point the options I found to fix the abs problem are:
1. Take it to the Toyota dealership and let them do it all, I believe the cost will start in the $1750 - $2500 area.
2. Source a used pump and then find a trusted mechanic to install for you. The cost if found on Ebay started around $300 and up and local salvage yards were starting in the $400 and up.
3. You can try installing the used one yourself but this will require that you have access to Toyota Tech Stream Software, and OBDII Interface device and laptop to run it on to bleed the brakes and recalibrate the system afterwards
4. And the latest option that I just found was a company out of Atlanta GA that offers to rebuild the module by sending it to them with about a 10-14 day turn around. I am going to be trying this option, They charge a reasonable $199 for the service and you get your abs back rebuilt . All you have to do is remove the whole pump and send it to them. Here are the steps to remove the ABS Pump assembly Assembly 44510-30270 from a 2007 Camry Hybrid in order to send it to them.
You will need:
12mm Socket
10mm Flared crows foot socket
10" Extention
Ratchet
Towels
Vise Grips
Fist you will want to disconnect the negative from the 12 volt battery in the trunk.
Then use your vise grips to clamp the brake fluid line coming from the reservoir to the pump.
Then use the 10mm flared crows foot socket to remove the six brake fluid lines on the top of the pump
Then use the 10mm socket to loosen the nuts on the side of the ABS pump then you will be able to lift the whole unit out of the car, wipe it down and package it to send to the company

Bill thank you for posting it again. Your first post been moved to 50%-100% off section
Hi Bill and UpFix team,
I have an 07 Camry with the same ABS Actuator Module and Pump Assembly (PN: 44510-30270). My Camry also has a VIN B for the fifth digit.
I am having a hard time identifying where to place an order to send in for repair. There are two options that I can find on the UpFix website but neither has a picture that shows the same type of ABS Assembly.
You mentioned a repair price of $200 but the link that I found for an 07 Camry for $200 doesn't mention sending in the whole module (pump included) like in your instructions. Can you please point me in the right direction to get the replacement process initiated?
Thanks,
Rhett
Here is the link where you can place the order
https://www.upfix.com/product/toyota-camry-2006-2006-abs-ebcm-module-repair-service/
Let me know if you still need help
Am I good to send in the entire pump/module assembly (see pic for example)
The above guide alludes that this is ok. The image on the link you provided appears to have a different ABS module/pump so I need to ensure that for my particular part (PN:44510-30270) this process will work.
Also, is there still eligibility for the 50-100% off by documenting the process?
Thanks,
Rhett
Reply below, please advise. Thanks!
Yes there still eligibility for the 50-100%
And yes you can send in just like you got the part in picture
Thanks for your answers, last question: my ABS pump is constantly running like in the symptoms list on the link you provided. I also have a code C1391 that indicates an abnormal leak in the accumulator. Essentially, the accumulator is unable to hold pressure. Does this service address this issue?
Thanks!
Rhett
Sorry we don't fix leaky pump. We fix electronic part only.
Understood, thanks for your help!
Hello,
So Im having an issue with my abs in a 2007 camry hybrid 5th vin digit b. the code is c1342 - hydraulic system malfunction. the people at autozone printed the report for me and it says most likely solution is to replace abs hydraulic control assembly. suggested part abs pump/motor. so can i just replace the pump? or do i really need to replace the entire assembly? thanks in advance!
You're dealing with a C1342 code (Hydraulic System Malfunction) on a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid with a 5th VIN digit of "B"—which confirms it’s a hybrid variant. This code is fairly common on Toyota hybrids and relates to the ABS actuator assembly, which contains both the pump and the electronic control components. What Does Code C1342 Mean? C1342 indicates an internal malfunction of the ABS hydraulic control unit, particularly an issue with pressure retention, internal valve operation, or the pump motor. It typically stems from: A failing pump motor Leaking internal valves Malfunctioning pressure sensors Can You Replace Just the Pump? Unfortunately, not at least, not easily or reliably. On this model: The pump motor is integrated into the ABS actuator assembly, which also contains the solenoids and accumulator. Toyota does not sell the pump motor as a standalone part. You’d typically need to replace the entire ABS actuator assembly. Attempting to replace just the motor (if you find one used) is technically possible but labor-intensive, and success rates vary. It may not resolve all C1342 causes. Recommended Fix You’re usually looking at replacing the entire ABS hydraulic control unit (actuator assembly). This unit is located under the hood and has multiple brake lines and electrical connections running to it. Things to Know Before Replacing Used vs. New: A used assembly can work if it matches the part number exactly. New ones from Toyota are expensive (often $1,500+). Part Number Match: Make sure to match your exact part number. It may be something like 44510-30370 (varies by trim and production date). Bleeding Procedure: After replacement, you must perform a Techstream (dealer scan tool) bleed procedure to properly purge air from the hybrid braking system. Final Recommendation Unless you're doing experimental work or have a trusted hybrid mechanic willing to try a pump-only swap, your best bet is to: Replace the entire ABS actuator assembly. Use a used or remanufactured unit to save cost. Have the repair done by someone with Techstream access for proper bleeding.
