how do you get the air out that has been introduced into the closed system after replacing the accumulator without using a Star? (just looking forward to the inevitable...)

Goto post #15. He is a kick *** master tech and knows his stuff.
GT-ER also posts in there that he changed it without issues also.

Thank you Hulk!! That was extremely helpful, I just replaced mine and did it without STAR. I took some pictures so I'll try to write up a quick DIY. But it's honestly just unscrewing the old one and screwing in the new one, just as stated. Whoever attempts this don't freak out when the brake fluid sprays out on the towels you put around the accumulator to catch the fluid. Now my message has not gone away just yet so I'm going to borrow a scanner that can access the SBC system to try and clear it.

post up some pics bro
also try to unplug the rear battery and front battery and then unplug the sbc for a while then plug back in and see if it doesn't clear
if anything I can maybe meet you somewhere and try to clear it with icarsoft
