Is there a way to turn off the ABS? The sensor keeps going off and the ABS wants to kick in every once in a while. Lexus Service Ctr is telling me the ABS Accuator needs replaced. That'll only cost me $3000.

When the light comes on, the ABS would not function so there is no need to turn it off. Only irritation would be the warning light.

What trouble codes are you getting? A used unit would not cost that much and should be readily available at salvage yards.
