bypassing the ABS system?

Post by 91darkness »

Hey guys,

Was wondering if anyone removed their abs system and made it a closed system.

Don't even go there.

The ABS system is very hard to reinstall and set up if you ever wanted to put it in.

If you don't like the ABS, just pull the fuse out and carry on with life. This makes the car behave as if the system wasn't there.

the problem is that i leak an amazing amount brake fluid from the system. Pressure builds up and comes right out the top of the unit. I fill up my brake fluid every couple days. the unit stopped working about about 7 months ago.

The ABS system is leaking? Unplugging it should prevent it from pressurizing.

The fuse is located in the fuse box under the hood. One fuse disables the entire system.
