Is there a way to disable the ABS pump, but still have normal braking - just minus the ABS feature? I'm pretty strapped for cash right now, and don't want to put down $250 on a used ABS pump. But I would like to eliminate that awful noise. If I pull the relays, would that do the trick? If so, what do the relays look like, and where are they located? I promise, I'll reactivate the ABS one day!

Thanks!
