ABS Light XJ6 1996 help

hello, I have had a constant ABS light on my 96 x300 for a few
weeks now. I scanned the code and it read a C1095. I spoke to a
local Jag Mechanic that has been repairing jags for over 20 years
and he says that you cannot resoder the circuit board like you can
on the X308's. He also says that in all his years of repairing
X300's he has never encountered a problem with the abs. I have seen
many people post that there light comes on, and they send the
circuit board out for repair. He also told me that the anti-lock
is "Really" only for the snow climate, being that I live in South
Florida I dont need to fix the issue is what he said. Does anyone
agree with him? I hate the light, but if I dont have to really fix
it, I can just pull the bulb from the speedometer. Thank you.

Traction Control wires
I want to mention that on the Traction Control Actuator(MNA5930AA), at least on the X300, the two wire's insulation on the unit just crumbles eventually and the wires short out. I have seen this happen to several. On my own the ABS and Traction Warning lights went on. Eventually I found that the wires on bottom of the unit had shorted, but the upper end looked good. Some I have seen are bad at the top and bottom. It may be due to UV since the insulation under the black wire tube seems to be ok. I have not disassembled the unit to rewire it. I hope that the shorting did not permanently hurt something. I have not seen this problem mentioned and wanted to bring it to someones attention. Anyone with an X300 and traction control should be aware of this problem.

I hope this type of insulation is not found elsewhere in the car.

Smog pump as you remove the plastic conduit near the pump connector
TSB covering pump part # and fuse uprating but not the specific local wire insulation degradation
