Another C2 ABS problem

A mechanic who six years ago replaced the pump has the hydraulic hoses connected in wrong way.
Back wheels connected in place of the front right wheel, and vice versa.
This has resulted in 3 x 360 degrees on the highway and parked on the grass
I tried to fix it by myself, and connected the cables "short" and burned a importend wire.
In my case, the tarnished wires are not doing any fault, maybe some time will.
So after six years of driving my C2 for the first time I felt like the ABS works - it works phenomenally.
Fortunately, in the Warsaw snow falls today, so I have a fantastic fun.
Thank you again for all your support and helpful advice, once again proved to be my automotive opinion that: Factories are making good cars, and ruining them unskilled mechanics.

Thank You, for price info. As You read, i already fixed.
KaiB:
After the 3x360, unplugged the pump (12 pin plug) and so was using the car for 6 years.
And it was enough just to compare the brake lines in the other car.
So this happens when you trust the mechanic too much.

Is this a known good unit, and if so, why is it out? Interested, KB.

Unit is perfectly good 19 K miles
I removed from my car which was wrecked.

ABS pump verification is not a problem. Just turn on the camera (even that of the iPhone) and take a multimeter and measure electrical resistances of the different pins and the engine. Then put the video on youtube, and send link to the client, so then client can see. Package send with option to test the product prior to the adoption of a courier. It is my way ... Simple?
