I’d be wary of switching the dratted thing off (though entirely understandable the wish to switch the garbage off), because in the event of any accident when the ECU is downloaded you can be certain the finger of blame is going to be pointed at you whatever the circumstances.
Some lorries don’t have the facility at all of switching it off, MAN for one.Actually you can switch it of in a MAN
Mines bust anyway the radar has stopped working and our local MAN dealer doesn’t have anyone working weekends that is qualified to work on it so on a year old truck it’s not worked for the last 8 months.

If there is a fault with the AEBS not working then you should defect it and refuse to drive it. Its a legal requirement on trucks after 2016. It has to be fitted and working.
