This is the standard answer from Victor Rocha to the question:

QUOTE "Can I drive the car without the ABS Unit? My mechanic tells me it is not possible!

For legal reasons I do not recommend that you drive your car without the ABS unit; however, everybody has driven their car without the unit without harming any systems. The speedometer and the cruise control will not work while the unit is removed. The ABS and TRACS (If your car has it) will not work while the ABS Control Unit is removed (These do not work when the ABS light is ON), which is the same situation as when your ABS Unit has failed. You must understand that if you drive your car without the ABS unit, you are doing it at your own risk.

On S80 models, only two people have driven their vehicles without the ABS Unit, they reported that there are a lot of warning lights ON but the car will drive the same way as when the ABS Unit failed." END QUOTE

It is amazing what hoops do we all have to go through because of the US legal system......
