Disable ABS - 2000 Silverado
Hi all,
I just bought a 2000 Silvereado 4x4 5sp Std Cab. The ABS module is "blown" but the brakes work fine.
I don't think I'll repair it, it's pretty expensive and I'll only be using it forodd chores here and there.
Ihave three questions:
1) Is it possible todisable/disconnect the ABS warning lightin the dash?
2)Is it possible todisable/disconnect theBrake/Parking brakewarning lightin the dash?
and
3) Does the Check/Service engine light come on when the ABS module is disconnected? If so, is there a way to disable that? I don't want to disable the check engine light, just the effects of the defective ABS.
Thanks in advance for any help. I've found many an answer from this forum...

I have a 2000 sylverado 4 door pick up. the ABS activates when stepping on the brake at slow speed which causes the truck to move foward a short distance before stopping .. I corrected this problem by removing the 60amp curcuit breaker for the ABS but now the abs and brake warning lights are on all the time .is there any way to turn off these lights .

The ABS may not be a safety item, but if the red brake light is on, then the vehicle does not pass safety
The only way to disable the lights is to take the cluster apart and either put black tape over the light, or disable the LED.

A simple switch would be great. Turn it on while driving above 40 and turn it off below.
Somebody mentioned a way of modulating the ABS system.
I feel mine is way too sensitive, if I could change it I would.

You might consider getting a performance programmer,they run somewhere under $350. Jet Chips makes a great one, easy to use, and you can completely disable your ABS along with all the light issues. the programmer will also increse your milage and HP -well worth the money. you may need a low temp thermastat to balance things out, but thats relativly cheap and easy too.
