I have found that same part via Google-fu, and will be testing mine soon to confirm that the accumulator is infact weak. No doubt, it's only 23 years old now so I'm betting most of the Nitrogen charge is long gone.
My son scored the front solenoid valve manifold/module from a Charlotte pullapart for under $20. Worst part of the swap was the massive leakage of DOT4 brake fluid when I disconnected the 7 lines. Because of the line orientation, it was near impossible to get my trash bag down & under all the lines, so leakage ensued. A funky arrangement of flared tubing wrenches were required....11, 13 maybe, and 14mm. Thank goodness for my NAPA flare wrench set! Surprisingly only 1 line was tough to release and the balance came right off.
A quick 3 wheel bleed following Bentley procedure, and VIOLA we had her up and running. 4+ panic stops and she's straight as an arrow, praise be to GOD.
The only mission left for me is the accumulator and resolving the blinking ABS light. Hopefully final inspection next week.
