ABS relay / fuse question

[Mc2KXJ]

I just did an axle swap and no longer have ABS in the rear. I am trying to delete ABS from the front now and need help with what to remove. I was looking online and found 1 fuse position to kill the ABS light and then found this below for the ABS controller. My concern is removing it considering all the other devices that use it. Any thoughts?


Fuse #25 shift lock solenoid, a/c heater control, abs controller, abs controller relay, blower motor relay, blend door actuator

Thanks,
Rich

Any particular reason you can't just find the ABS controller proper and disconnect it? That would seem to be the way to go...

Caveat - it's likely you've got OBD (1991-up.) This might get you a code in OBD as well - and that sort of thing can cause you to fail safety or emissions inspections, if you're subject to that sort of thing...

You don't want to disconnect that fuse in the kick panel. You want to disconnect the fuses and relays in the black box in the engine bay. Use the diagram to find the right ones. On my 1998 it is right next to the battery. I think there are 2 relays and 1 fuse.

Thanks all, most of the info I was able to find wasn't for my year and I didn't want to screw it up. I pulled 1 relay and 1 fuse and took it for a spin. So far, so good. Brakes worked fine and no ABS light came on. Good lookin out guys, thanks again.

For my 97 it was 2 fuses (40A and 20A) and the small black siemens relay.

I wonder if I got them all? I pulled the 20a and the relay but couldn't find anything else under there that said ABS. I'm not even gonna ask "what's the worst that can happen".

All I pulled was the ABS relay. Snow, 4x4 trip, DD, no problems.
