How to Disable the ESP

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Control unit

Video tutorial

Today, we will show you one of the procedures to disable the ESP on your car. First, access the internal fuse box located under the steering wheel (or lower left of the steering wheel, near the door). Here, you should find the "steering angle sensor" as shown in the video: remove it by pressing the side clips and pulling it out of its socket.

Now, the ESP will no longer function as the sensor will not send a signal, but the ABS will continue to work, and there will be no issues with the normal braking system.
