What would cause my ABS pump to run constantly? And how do I shut it off?

There is a fuse for the ABS under the hood I believe.... Look in a little black fuse box near the battery.

There are any number of things that could make it run all the time...

Did you have any work done on the car recently like new tires or brakes? Perhaps something was damaged... If you recently installed new wheels are the diameters pretty close to the same front/back? You don't have some oddball tires on there do you? Like 225/50 16 on one rim and like 285/50 17s on another? I have -heard- that having different tire diameters can cause some ABS systems to think that you're constantly out of control

Nope, just started the car, let it warm up, and pulled out of the drive, then the light came on........and I heard the pump run......

Happened to my friend's car. We just pulled the fuse. I think a wire to one of his abs sensors was torn.

Hmmm, I pulled the fuse under the dash, and the pump stopped, and the light stayed on, then curious me plugged it back in, and the light went out, and the pump was still off........I drove the car, and slammed on the brakes at 60......and the ABS still works..............maybe she was pissed at me...


Thanx
