[s-cars] ABS fuse pulled- Brake bias/proportion gone?

[Toborg Michael (AC-SM/ESC3) *]

The BRAKE lamp will tell you when the proportioning is disabled if the
car does have EBD. (Electonic brake force distribution) If only the ABS
lamp is on, ABS is disabled, but EBD is alive. If both the ABS and the
BRAKE lamps are on, then all 4 wheels are getting unregulated master
cylinder pressure.
You could try failing one WSS by unpluging it to fail ABS instead of
pulling the fuse This should put you in Backup EBD mode.

Thank you to all who answered, yet I still feel a little unsatisfied.
I'm not worried about the sqeual, that goes away with a liberal
application
of Porsche anti seize and the ABS doesn't kick in cuz the fuse is
pulled. I
will check all the wheel speed sensors though when I fix the loud
brakes.
IF the fuse is pulled, do I still have proper brake proportioning? The
car
still seems to brake the same way and I haven't noticed an excessive
amount
of rear brake being used, ie not hot. Thanks in adavnce.

Nic
