Abs module delete

2010 Chevy Cobalt SS build

I’ve pretty much completed my new engine harness and I’ve had a hard time sourcing the ABS module connector and terminals.

So I started googling and apparently it can be deleted along with all the wires except for 4. There is 2 tans and 2 tan/black wires that go to the module.

from what I have read you connect the two tans together and the two tan/black together and this supposedly makes everything work without the ABS module.

My question how would go about connecting the brake lines without the module. From my understanding you can get two T type connectors one for the 2 front brakes and one for the 2 rear brakes then one line from each goes to the master cylinder.

I’ve seen some people use proportioning valves but there is only 5 connections on these valves and I would need 6, 2 rear, 2 front, 2 master cylinder.

I don’t quite understand the whole concept but if it is possible to delete the ABS module and get rid of all those wires along with it that would be a huge bonus. And I would also like to learn more about the braking systems in cars it seems straightforward, but is it as simple as it sounds?

First of all a warning which should go without saying but I'll say it anyway - Any time you're making any modifications to the braking system you need to tread with caution since this will affect the safety of your vehicle. The other consideration is that usually the ABS module controls the front/rear proportioning and hence removing the module can result in the brake performance being poor or even dangerous so proceed with extreme caution.

You should be able to bypass the system using a couple of tee intersections like you've proposed. You may also want to incorporate a brake proportioning valve if required and there's a couple of options (I'm not too sure specifically which one you're referring to above). Generally these valves are plumbed into the rear brake line as a pressure reducing valve. Wilwood offer a model that mounts on or near the master cylinder and includes essentially a built in tee for the front, hence offering two outlets (unsure if this is what you're referring to?) in which case the rear line is usually tee'd at the rear of the vehicle. https://www.wilwood.com/MasterCylinders/MasterCylinderValves

Yes of course I should have added this car will be strictly for track use and I’ve heard the ABS system can be somewhat of a disadvantage for autocross racing is this true?

That is actually the exact proportioning valve I was looking at I must have miss read that. If that is the case this should work perfectly for what I need it for, thank you Andre
