Help with pulling ABS fuse

Bean75 · 12-10-2003, 04:26 PM

I was going to pull the ABS fuse, but noticed there was 2 of them. One for solenoid, one for something else. Can someone please help me on which exact fuse to pull.

Thanks in advance

I yank the 20amp fuse behind the coin holder if i recall correctly its the 2nd from left 2nd row from bottom. and yes ur abs light will light up. Remember to put back in when snow dries or god forbid an accident happens you don't want insurance problems if the abs didn't work. Good luck hope this helps. Needlenose pliers work wonders.

put a blown fuse in there.. that way in case of accident "i had no idea it was blown"

If you put blown fuse in, isn't their still a light that comes on? Dunno if you can really say "gee didn't know fuse blew" if there is a light on.

just a thought.

insureance doesnt look to see if bulb is pulled...if you really wanna get creative, replace the bulb with a blown one too.

The fuse must've blown in the accident.

OMG u guys are unreal do u really think any insurance company is gonna check for blown fuses i highly doubt it ever. I just mentioned putting it back in just as an afterthought if something should happen. ever wrx guy or 02+rs guy/gal knows the abs sucks just yank the abs and be on ur way. ENJOY!

If it's because you totalled the car sliding into a tree, no they won't check. If it's because you ran over a young mother and newborn baby, then yeah, they're probably gonna check.
