How do I disable ABS for brake test

[TeniJim]

Hey all, I want to test braking without ABS. Can I just pull the fuse? Will the brakes still work normally once it's off? Help please

Yeah lol if you pull the ABS fuse it disable the system. About that, your brakes will still work like regular non-ABS brakes. At least based on what I know. If you're not sure and can't trust a stranger a hundred percent, pls ask your dealer.

That's what I figured, but wanted to be sure before messing with anything. I'll test it carefully and might check with the dealer too just to be safe

yeah, when you pull the fuse, a series of warning lights will likely illuminate on your dashboard, including the ABS light. This is normal and will go away once you reinstall the fuse.
Be aware of other systems tho'. cause some newer Honda models integrate the ABS with other safety features like traction control and stability control. Pulling the fuse for ABS may disable those systems as well, so be mindful of that.
