As someone who has been the lucky owner of vehicles that had previous owners (POs), please just pull the bulb. Cutting wires, especially for something as silly as turning off a bulb, is just not a good idea. It makes people who might own your vehicle in the future very frustrated and less than "happy" when they try and decipher the PO's electrical creativity. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Here is another idea: Fix the ABS.

Good Luck,
