Ha! nothing to unplug, just lots of rust everywhere. Real quality steal in these frames. Truck is pretty mint on the outside but underneath is crap. Anyway I just pulled the main ABS fuse and old school brakes working fine. I'm a strong believer in the KISS theory-keep it simple stupid!-hi tech usually just means more to go bad and harder to fix.Same thing with the pc of shi* PVH 4x4 system- back to manual lockers to make it right.
