remove trailer brake controller

i got a 2005 superduty and i constantly get the TBC Fault eroor on the dash. i have never pulled a trailer and i don't plan on it either. i unplugged the controller and i still get the error code. i just want to remove the controller altogether and throw it in the garbage. do i have to get ford to disable it in the pcm?

The PCM feature has to be disabled also.
