Searched: ABS hydraulic unit leak

Anybody ever hear of the hydraulic unit leaking from the electrical connector thingys? Its a slow leak, but the paint under the ABS unit is turning into goo. Can this be fixed, or does the whole thing have to be replaced?

I remember when mine leaked...I bought a used second unit in case, but before I replaced it, I tightened all the bolts (hex screws) the leaking slowly stopped...weird...

I developed a leak in mine as well and just had it replaced with a used one. A new one is $1200 from Mazda!
