If u have any loss of traction under braking the abs will activate..this is normal..if it happens while cruising and not actually braking then it is not good and should be checked into!!!
I do ? how u shut off the abs do u not mean "ride control" (ARS i think they call it) which is the traction control for snow and rain that I always turn off when I use my zr-1 first switch i hit b4 i turn the key on!!LOLOL
