TracsOffABS light on intermittently 850

posted by  someone claiming to be DavidL on  Sat Mar 22 12:02 CST 2008 [RELATED]

Tracs Off / ABS light comes on the dash intermittently. Could this be caused by pads beginning to need replacement?

When it comes on there is a faint whirring/vibration noise and tremor on the brake pedal before the lights come on and normal brake feel is restored (without the ABs presumably).

I live in a country (a small island nation) where it is seldom possible to drive faster than 50km/h. The ABS is not needed. Can I just remove a fuse or something to disable it?
