The manual states nothing is different.
In brake fluid exchange mode (getting the old out and new in), I'd agree nothing is different. But I think that's only if air doesn't get into the secondary pressure relieving circuits for these older Bosch 5.3 or other Bosch-licensed copies.
If you change out a master cylinder or brake line, or if air gets into the secondary circuits, then bleeding the ABS would be required. On these older systems, if you have a wiring diagram, you can jury-rig an actuator and bleed the secondary circuit yourself. But there is a strict limit on the amount of time you can turn on a solenoid or pump before burning it out (usually < 10 seconds per any 5 minute period!)
In newer ABS systems with integrated stability control, brake force distribution, acceleration slip control, etc, etc, exercising the ABS solenoids and pump after component changes are required. And with these variable-current solenoids only a proper ABS actuator should be used. You'll also need a pressure bleeder capable of 2 Bars (~29 PSI). Good thing I don't think we have to worry about these on low cost commuters.
And no, just activating the pump without opening the pressure reducing solenoid doesn't work.

The FSM doesn't call out anything different (using a ABS scanner or bleeding the ABS module) in bleeding the system.
Any ideas?
