Default Abs Fuse

Which one is the abs fuse in the fuse box and will unplugging it make my abs light go out?

I don't think so. The fuse feeds power to the ABS circuit, so unplugging the fuse will simply render the ABS inoperative. The dash indicator is turned on by the PCM, I believe, so pulling the fuse shouldn't affect it. In fact, I think pulling the fuse on a working ABS system should cause the light to come on since the ABS will no longer be able to report back to the computer that it is functioning.

Only a scanner can turn that light off. You need to find a shop who has the scanner that can read ABS codes. Then you can fix the problem yourself and then go and get the light and code cleared.
