2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission ABS Disconnect Q:

[Texis]

Guys,

I have been fighting the common "Brake & ABS light on" for a few days now. I believe I have read every post on this site, and there are many good ideas and suggestions. One thing that a lot of guys seem to do is pull the fuse and delete the ABS function.

Here's my question: If the ABS is disconnected (fuse pulled) will cruise control function? Or, does the cruise get its signal from the brake pedal switch?

This is really my main concern, as the right knee has been cut on a bunch and it doesn't like any vehicle without cruise for more than an hour or so.

Thanks

Answer: YES, cruise control still works with the ABS fuse removed. A new servo got me going again.

Good to hear. I wish I could locate and fix my abs and brake light issue.

If you just pull the fuse the lights in the dash stay on. If you disconnect the ABS controller by pulling the plug the lights go out and the cruise works just fine. The controller is behind the dash, to the right of the knee bolster and pulling the plug is a bit of a struggle. My controller died about 700,000 miles ago. I don't miss it at all.
