Removing ABS Fuse?

Removing ABS Fuse?
If I pull the ABS fuse (to keep PSM from interfering during autocrossing), ABS and/or PSM idiot lights will most likely come on, correct? If so, will these disappear by simply replacing the ABS fuse or is it a more involved process?

I hope you're right. It's just that I don't have a Durametric yet and I'd hate to have to visit a stealership just to get the idiot lights to go away...
Gorgeous pics BTW, Brett. The landscape shots have me daydreaming here at work!

with PSM disabled: ABS is always on, PSM is always on under braking.
Pull the ABS fuse and it will deploy the spoiler and disable PSM for good. Every thing goes back to normal when you plug the fuse back in.

Not exactly, PSM will continue to do some stuff in the background even when it's "off." I have seen the same posts here and there that claim that PSM reactivates after triggering ABS, but that has not been my case. Even on a skid pad, PSM did not turn itself back on.
Pulling the fuse will definitely keep it off - but increases your risk of flat-spotting your 911's pricey tires.

I'm tempted to make a switched fuse for easy on/off

You may want to try this in a vacant parking lot first before your big event. In my experience, every time that I have pulled an ABS fuse (on my E46 M3 and 986S), it results in way too much front brake bias, and almost instantly locks up the front tires. I am guessing that Bosch works with the manufacturer's to require a natually over biased front brake system for their software to work. Good luck.
