Question about replacing N47-5 ESP Contoller Module

Hi guys anyone know whats the procedure for removing the "N47-5 ESP Contoller Module"?

Indy shop said my module is bad so I was thinking can I just get the same model # module from lets say ebay and just do a quick swap; plug and play?? or do I have to get it re-programmed by a star diagnostic tool?? I attached a pic of the location of the module.
Thanks in advance for the info.

as long as the following 3 are the same it should be plug and play.

Part number, H/W # and S/W #

Ohh man, Shardul you always have the answers bro! Thanks for the clarification on what to look for.

Update: I removed all 3 plugs and sprayed CRC Electronic Cleaner on the pins and the plugs and plugged it back in, and WALA!!!!! My ABS,BAS,ESP lights are all gone. Everything is working perfectly as it should. I dunno if there were some debris in the Pin holes or it wasn't seated properly but CRC spray did the job. I always had good luck in using this spray to bring electronics back to life, lolz, but anyhow hopefully this will do the trick.

***CRC Electronic Spray is just a Temp fix. I found out the hard way bc the ABS light came on again right now, POS Module on the fritz; going to swap it out.****

Shardul, I got plugs 2 and 3 off and sprayed with CRC electronic cleaner, but I couldn't get plug #1 off according to the pic I attached in my 1st post. Plug 1 is stuck; when I try to slide it in the release direction the wires come in the way preventing it from sliding all the way out. Is there a special technique to get this Plug 1 off? I think my module is on the fritz because again the ABS light came on today and I may as well just get another module and swap it out. Spraying CRC is just a temp looks like
