A couple of months ago I posted a thread about my abs light coming on after bumping over some railway tracks. It turned out the abs motor fuse had blown. When I replaced the fuse the problem was solved. Recently, the light came on again and the same fuse was blown. I replaced it but this time it only lasted a couple of days. Now the fuse blows every time i drive the car.

Any suggestions?

I would like to just disconnect the ABS system entirely. Does anyone know if I can disconnect the abs control module??

Thanks

yes, you can disable the whole ABS system. Like you said, going over bumps will blow the fuse. Check wirings to all your four ABS sensor, and check wirings to ABS unit.

I checked the wires and coudn't find anything. Do you know how to disconnect the system?

take out your gauge cluster and take out the abs light, thats what i did problem solved.

I finally decided to remove the gauge cluster. There was an orange plug that looked like it was going into the area of the ABS light. Pulled it and light doesn't come on anymore. Nothing else in gauge cluster was affected.

yeah thats a good way to fix problems

If you have a better idea I'm listening. I've tried cleaning the sensors but the ABS motor fuse continues to blow. I don't want to invest in an abs motor, if that proves to be the problem, as I've heard this is very expensive.

have you actually tried hooking up a scan tool to diagnosis it?

if the fuse keeps on blowing its a good indication that theres a short somewhere

Yes,

The codes showed right side back and front wheel sensors and abs motor off.
