I have done extensive reading on the "Three Amigos" problem in this forum (thanks to all who contribute...this is a great resource). I am, as many are, up to my elbows in this situation. My question is this...can I just pull the damn fuse and get rid of the three amigos and use the breaks pre-ABS style? Will this cause the Electronic Traction Control to stop working (does 4WD still work then?)? Don't really care about the hill descent control...
Along with all the pretty lights, another part of the problem we are seeing is that the brakes sometimes don't stop the vehicle properly (Yikes!). Of course a dealer inspections says $2500 (Ouch!) to replace the entire ABS Modulator Assembly. (Had the sensors cleaned already and didn't really work, first snow we hit the lights came back on.)
So, am I playing with fire trying to work around this problem or should I bite the bullet and fork over the cash?
Any insight is appreciated.
