Get an instance of your CharacterController from another script and disable it.

// C#
CharacterController cc = GetComponent(typeof(CharacterController)) as CharacterController;
cc.enabled = false; // Turn off the component

//C Sharp

CharacterController control

void Update()
{
control.enabled=false;
}

Must be in Update

The controller must be disabled in the Update function in order for it to disable correctly.

You can do this by creating a flag “IsDead”. Then in your Update block, have an if statement checking every frame to see if the controller should be disabled.

 if(isDead)
 {
    CharacterController cc = GetComponent<CharacterController>();
    cc.enabled = false; 
 }
