Hi:
We don't fix cars here but we do try to help people make good choices and provide technical support for you.

This repair shouldn't require a dealership. It's most likely an ABS sensor on one of the wheels. Yes, it will disable the traction control because through the application of brakes to spinning wheels, the power is sent to the non spinning wheel providing better traction.

Call around and get the best price you can.
