    ABS engine bay clean up

    I removed my ABS ages ago. Question is the piece of loom with the three plugs in can I cut all those wires off and the small black box on the grubby bracket that can be seen in this picture?

    All my abs plugs were cut off when it went for mapping. Make sure you tuck the wires into the passenger footwell and keep the wheel sensors all hooked up in case you ever want to fit traction control / launch control.

    Isn't that box to do with the wipers?

    Not sure really. It's like all the diff cooler wiring. I'm always nervous about cutting it all out invade there's some other system lurking in there

    The small black box is the wiper amp.

    A relay in the trunk is the diff cooler.

    Didn't spot that question in Seans original post. Yup, it's the wiper amp. Only remove the plugs that actually plugged straight into the ABS unit.
