Hi Guys,

When turning right and braking, the abs kicks in..Has anyone heard of this problem before?

Is it possible to disable the ABS until I can fix this problem?

Sorry, it is a 2002 Frontier 4x4 SE.

I realize that the abs won't work properly until it is fixed, but can the abs be disabled and still use the brakes?

Thanks for the replies guys,

I bought the truck used, so I am not sure about the rear center recall, i will look into it.  Once this blizzard stops here I will check the wiring for the sensors and the wheel bearings (the truck is not showing any symptoms of a bad wheel bearing though)

The tires are equally inflated and in great contition.

Keep the ideas coming,

Mike

If you disconnest the ABS and have an accident and get sued, you could be in BIG trouble in court.  Don't do this. 

It seems that the system is sensing a big difference in wheel speed between the two front wheels or between the front and rear wheels.  Follow Frontierguys advice.  If nothing is obvious, you prbably need a dealer or good shop to look at this.
