BMW ABS/DSC Pump – Causing ABS, DSC and Handbrake Warning Light Fault

Name: Autotronics
Address: 223 Belgrave Gate, LE1 3HT, United Kingdom
Telephone: 0116 276 7054
Price range: Competitive

The BMW ABS/DSC pump frequently experiences malfunctions in models such as the BMW 3-Series (E90), Z4, 1-series, and M5 manufactured between 2005 and 2014. A common indicator of this issue is the constant illumination of the ABS, DSC, and handbrake warning lights. Diagnostic scans often reveal persistent fault codes within the ABS system, specifically “5DF0-Hydraulic Unit Pump Motor” and “5DF1-Hydraulic Unit Pump Motor Connector Faulty.” While these fault codes may temporarily clear, they consistently reappear, becoming permanent issues. Opting for a new unit from the manufacturer proves to be an expensive solution, with a limited 1-year warranty.

Our service offers an alternative: either rebuilding the customer’s existing unit in a 2-3 working day timeframe or providing replacement units from our stock at a significantly reduced cost compared to a new manufacturer unit. Importantly, our rebuilt units feature a lifetime warranty with unlimited mileage as a standard offering. This assurance is possible because we use components of higher quality than the standard ones during the rebuilding process, mitigating the original design flaw that led to the unit’s initial failure.
