Question:

what happens when your abs brakes gets disconnected?

I have a 2000 town and country and a person disconnected my abs brakes and my brakes freeze up when its really cold. Can that be my problem

Answer:

Only a industrial company can do that or a independent contractor because it would be to messy. Sometimes it's better to buy a new couch because the frame may not be worth saving.
fill up a friends in ground swimming pool, with red dye in it. next throw the couch into the swimming pool, make sure to let it saok for at least an hour. Drain pool water and have a few friends help you take the couch out of the pool. And there you have it. R O S C O
If your ABS malfunctions or gets disconnected they just become conventional brakes. Like a regular non-ABS car.
What do you mean they disconected the abs brakes? You mean they unhooked the pump? The abs will not function, so it is possible to lock the tires up during a stop. However, the brakes will still function as designed. I;m not sure what you mean by my brakes freeze up. Here;s the bottom line. Brakes are far too important to mess around with. Have it looked at, and fixed.
abs is a computer controlled braking system that assists traction in challenging conditions, it is not a fail safe, and if disconnected you have normal brakes just like the rest of us. If you are experiencing a problem with brakes freezeing, its not from the abs. there may be moisture on the brake disc or pad, brake fluid if you have a small leak, its difficult to say with out inspecting the brakes. as long as the car rolls once it frees up good, but if your having some brake problem like wheels locking up, there is another problem and you need a qualified brake specialist to check things out, and find out what the problem is. So if your abs brakes are disconnected and the brakes are working normally its ok, if the brakes are still not working right, get them checked sooner, not later.
