It will not hurt you car's computer in any way, shape, or form.
In fact, if you drive anywhere near the speed "Where Life Begins", removing the wheel sensors could save your life.
In the last couple of years I've heard of at least two wheel sensor failing at speed causing massive wheel imbalance.
At warp 180 it would easily cause your car to become uncontrollable.

As far as I know, you will have to remove the bulb from the DIS.
I'm guessing that it is controlled by the BCM and not by the ECM (but I'm not sure), and that's why tuners aren't able to program it out of the DIS.

There's not a fuse in the fuse box specifically for that function so you are out of luck there.

Hopefully someone else will chime in with more information.
