Hi I have a problem with the ABS modulator but have two questions:


1/ Can I permenently disable it without effecting the TCS?

2/ Will the car pass an MOT, i believe that they only test the brake efficiency and not the ABS system?


All comments appreciated.

1 not sure
2 the mot brake test has to be done on the road with a decelerometer, as the abs freaks out on the rollers! however i'm sure the abs dash light function is tested during the mot... ie switch ignition on, make sure it illuminates, then goes out.... it will fail if it's on!

To 1): Yes, just pull the fuse.
