ABS/VSC/TRAC Disable Master Thread
In order to avoid loading multiple threads into the Documentation and Reference Thread, I wanted to assemble all the different ABS threads into one that we could load in there, so here goes:
ABS Disable on E-locked 4Runners - '96-'00 and some pre-wired non-locked's)
AKA the Yellow-Blue Wire Mod
ABS Switch - Easy, effective and simple
ABS Disable on non-E-locked Runners - '96-'00 (2 methods)
ABS Disable on older 3rd gens
Updated thread:
ABS disable V2.0 for older 3rd gens (On/off on the fly)
ABS, VSC, TRAC Disable on '01-'02
Disable VSC, TRAC, and ABS without damaging factory wiring
VSC, and TRAC Disable on '01-'02
Disable VSC/TRAC Only
Disabling VSC & TRAC - 2001-2002 4Runner with VSC & TRAC Systems - YotaTech Forums
Disable VSC and TRAC but not ABS on '01-'02
AndyMod 2.0. ABS Remains Active. - YotaTech Forums
A couple guys mention disabling VSC withouth disabling ABS or TRAC, If anyone has a write-up for that, post it and I will add it. Same for any other methods of disabling any of these, post them here and I will add them.

Just got done with this mod yesterday, i love it! I was so disappointed the first time i went out to "play" and figured out there would be no fun to be had with the 4runners nanny mode. Only took about 35 mins to complete!

Good job. I have to do this soon, as sliding through intersections in the snow is way not fun.

Has there been any update to this? Has anyone found a way to disable just the VSC alone on the 01-02?

I just did this one. Took 15 minutes and works great. Disables VSC and TRAC but not ABS.

Nelsonmd - Thanks for consolidating these links... My ABS was f'ing with me just yesterday & I can't wait to disable it.
I read the first two links - it didn't look like anyone was able to get the Yellow-Blue wire mod to work...? Dylan's writeup (second link) looked like the best option for 2000 and earlier 4R's.

Glad people are finally noticing this thread. I thought it was useful, but it got very few views at first...

There is no reason for the Andy Mod on a 2000 4runner as it did not come with the VSC/TRAC

You can also just remove the ABS fuse if you are not good at doing wiring. But then it's always off, I was having a problem with my VSC/Trac coming on randomly, I think I have a wheel sensor going out on one of the wheels.
Just remember that ABS fuse is bolted into the box and a bit trickey to remove. The dash lights are kind of annoying but I think i'm just going to pull the LEDs when i wire in my ARB compressor/locker.
ABS on these trucks is pitiful.

Beeping truck..
So I'm new to the forum. I'm on my third t4r. A 1990 .. A '97 limited and now a 2002 badlands. The 02 seems to have more fancy computerized gadgetry than I used to...
I was out on some logging roads on the weekend (2002) and if I was a little too fast though washboard washouts the truck would beep at me.... Beepbeepbeep....annoying as ...... What system was doing this and how do I turn it off... Or should I leave the system on and disable the beep? The truck handled great.... Any ideas or comments from those of you that have been playing with this longer than I would be appreciated
Dan

Do you have to put a switch in? i live in AZ where there is no snow, so I really don't need it on ever. I just want to cut the wire.
