Hello, I have the same problem. My brakes seem to work fine but my ABS light is on. I need to pass VA safety inspection. Any suggestions? can I just unplug the fuse?

It looks like you've fallen victim to the related threads. I'd imagine the OP has resolved or no longer has their Jeep by now.

Just as a side note, for the UK MOT test, if fitted the ABS light must turn on then go out so removing the relay would still cause a failure.
