I'm trying to replace the master brake cylinder ("MBC") on my 2007 SE, V-6, 4WD, 6-speed manual with ABS.  The MBC has the standard electrical connector on the inboard side (i.e., towards the center of the enginge compartment), and then another electrical connector for the brake sensor on the bottom of the MBC.  All the parts web sites that I have been to carried only the MBC "without" brake sensor.

Does anyone know where I can locate a MBC?

Thnx.

Dealer. Why are you replacing it, just out of curiosity?

Spongy brake pedal.  Have bled system, checked booster, etc.  - no joy.  Figure there's a problem with the M/C.

Actually have found one and installed it, but am now trying to find out if there's a bleed valve for the ABS controller.  So far, have not been able to locate it, and pedal still spongy (but better than before).

Trust me, they all feel spongy, but stop great! Bleeding
procedure is as follows: ignition off-disconnect ABS
controller or disconnect neg battery terminal-bleed RR-LF-
LR-RF in that order.
