Default removing ABS light with a different ECU? Passing inspection issue.

I have a 01 Integra. The inspection is up and I have no issues with passing, except the ABS light. I really do not care for using it.

Is there a way I can use a different ECU (p28 w/o abs) to pass inspection and to remove the abs light?

Can I pass NJ State inspection with the abs light on?

Thanks for your help

I've been told just to remove the bulb, I assume that the inspection for ABS is just visual? everything else works fine.

The ECU does not affect the ABS light. Why don't you pull the ABS code the same way that you would the ECU codes (jumper the connector in the passenger kick panel and read the ABS light) and see what the problem is? Otherwise, pull the bulb or the ABS fuse in the underhood fuse box by the ABS unit.

i know what the code is, and i have no problem fixing it. the inspection was due 4/07, so i'm really just trying to not get popped for a ticket.

id pull the bulb not the fuse, they may see the fuse missing and say somthing. id just pull the bulb. or you could just fix the problem and you wont have to worry about it.
