After i put on my 31's about 6 months ago my abs decided to go cuput. I blew the abs pump somehow and am not going to fix it. Now that i have no abs is there anyway i can make the light on my dash go away? Is there some place that i can disconect my abs so it doesnt send a signal anymore?

as far as i know, all you can do is pull the guages to remove the bulb. i would also like a confirmation on this one...
 






An ABS code reader should be able to turn it off.
 






Monmix- sapogmxr is getting rid of the ABS, not fixing it. so am i. reseting the code wont help much when there is no ABS stuff on the truck... :D
 






i just took out my fuse for abs today and yea the dummy light is on.. electric tape will fix it ;)
 






my abs light has been on for a while now. i haven't checked it yet. will a normal code reader like the freebies at autozone pull those codes?

and yeah.. i think electric tape would be easiest fix.
 






The abs dosnt go through the OBD II. A normal code reader will not pick it up. From what im told only ford has the reader for it. I went to auto zone with a blinking O/d light, fuel cap light, and my abs light and the scanner only picked up my fuel cap light.

That would be true.

Note to self
read the whole post.

BTW my code reader does ODB II, airbag and abs.
