How do I entirely disable the ABS system in 2006 Torrent? I've been told I have a bad ABS control module. Unplugging the wheel sensor is NOT disabling the system. The abs will still kick on until my BRAKE light comes on to disable the front brakes. Car brakes normal/good when the BRAKE light comes on.
 
Why dont you replace the module?
You can find used ones at car-parts.com
What code do you have?
 
The modules available around here, used or even reman are $500+. Then there's the labor of approx $700. I'm not a fan of abs to start with and would prefer to bypass the system entirely. And there are no engine codes for the abs. ABS light, TC light are always on and BRAKE light kicks on after 1/2-1 mile and in turn then finally disables ABS. ABS system will kick on whenever it wants on whatever wheel it wants any time it wants under 15mph. Even without pressing brakes. All 4 wheel bearings and sensors were replaced and are reading and functioning properly.
 
You cannt use a basic engine code scanner for ABS codes. Either buy a scanner capable of reading the ABS system or have a shop determine why the lights are on.
If all sensors were working correctly you wouldn't have the lights on.
It's unclear what your goal is, you just want the lights off? Try pulling the fuses.

Abs still kicks on with sensors unplugged and fuses/ relays pulled. I need to disable power to ABS module.

In the engine compartment fuse box you pulled the fuse marked ABS PWR and ABS?
Not sure what relay you removed, there is none listed in owner's manual.
