well for a short time fix its a lot safer than it currently is,
currently it kicks in when slowing down and i may aswell not be braking because it takes over lol
so i need to kill it for a bit till i figure out what the issue is, im use to having no ABS none of the rovers i had, had it.

What Cali said, just pull a fuse in that case, or failing that there will be an ABS relay you can yank out. Failing all of those you can disconnect a wheel-speed sensor Smile

Disconneting or damaing with wheel speed sensor will cause the ABS and Traction Control lights to display on a permenant basis on the MK4 platform.
