Default How to disable PSM?

I've searched. Most threads are debates about how it works, how much people do/don't like it, "why would you want to?", etc. Not looking for that here.

I'm searching for the definitive answer on HOW to disable PSM on a 996tt without killing ABS. The Cayman guys pull the yaw sensor from the system in the center console. Some have disconnected some wires down by the brake pedal, but I think these are also the brake light circuit.

Any help is appreciated.

unplug it - right near the brake fluid reservoir.

unplugging the sensor eliminates both psm, and any debate.

It's all you have to do.
The dash warning will come one every so often telling you to go to the shop, cancel with the stalk.
