my abs module is out, so i want to take the cluster off to remove the 3 lights that are on. how hard is it to remove or is it fairly easy? any thoughts will be helpful.

why dont you replace the ebtcm?? you can ignore the lights, you just wont have abs or traction control

a little expensive cant locate one under $600

Mine has the sane problem. I hate those lights there.
I found em on eBay for like 80 dollars used

Are you positive the module is no good? Just asking the obvious I know. Sure it isn't something like a bad wheel speed sensor or wiring issue?

This.

My ABS INOP and TCS INOP lights are on because I removed my stock 4-channel rear and replaced it with a Moser 9". I don't drive in the rain or snow, so I'm fine with that. I plan on removing the bulbs at some point. The problem is that you have to remove the vinyl cover the is over the lights, and you risk damaging it when you remove it.

Go to Autozone or someplace that does free scanning and have them scan you ECM for errors.

Well me and pimplaps already had r ECM scanned by his boss and said that it's the ABS Madule
so we wanted to remove the lil light bulbs if it not that hard..

Me and tury ls1 already checked, for sure the module is shot.

Just curious, do you know what the code was? Have you checked ebay and all local junkyards for a replacement? I know those are expensive and most of us don't use traction control or ABS that often, if at all...however, ABS is nice to have in the event you ever get in a pinch and need it.

I agree I figured I'd take the lights out for now till I replace the module. I hate having all them Damn lights on, my dash looks like a x-mas tree.

get one from ebay for like 80 used give or take i think they are 400 from gmpartsdirect. trust me tcs isnt a big deal but abs is nice to have my buddy said he'd get his done eventually then in november he needed abs while on the hwy it wasnt there and he smacked the sidewall at 40mphl just cost him almost 1k in damage so ya its iimportant
