My '02 ML320 has recently started to brake on it's own while driving, an issue of the ABS system. If I start the ML and the ABS light is on, then it will NOT have the issue. If I start the ML and the ABS light is NOT on, then it's likely within the next 5 miles that I will be driving and suddenly the ABS brakes begin to brake heavily. I have to pull over and wait for the ABS light to come on. As soon as the light is on, the ML will not have this issue again.

Obviously, there is a censor or module with issues. I don't need the ABS, although I'm interested in fixing the problem. In the meantime... CAN I DISABLE THE ABS?!? Is there a fuse just for that system?

Please help. I'd like to still be able to drive this thing, the brakes work fine. I have new rotors, pads both on the front/back.
