BMW Z4 E85 ABS DSC pump 5DF0 5DF1codes fault repair. 

Althou you dont say to hit the pump a couple of times, after watching your video, that is the conclusion i came out with. I went out with a hammer and fix the ABS pump on my car (2007 335i coupe). Thank you !!!!!!

So I believe I have finally solved the problem with thanks to this video! It turned out to be a lazy motor. I took the motor off, bench tested it, however despite cleaning it and tweaking it as best I could, it was useless. - it bench tested OK and spun fine, but when attached to the car and activated in INPA, it didn't have the power to do continuous work (I can only guess the ECU is clever and measures resistance or something in the motor to detect load). In the end, I purchased an ABS unit for £24/$31 from a 2016 Ford Focus Diesel!! The key was the part number of the MOTOR making it dead cheap which was 10.0212 which I searched on eBay. I hacked off the metal stubs using a mini hacksaw and removed the good motor from the metal pump on the unit. I was lucky that someone had already 'refurbished' the ABS unit from my car and they had fashioned a bracket of sorts and drilled threads. I reattached it to the car and was able to perform full bleeding operations without the motor grinding to a halt. I cant thank the maker of this video enough, thankyou!

Bonjour, Merci pour ce que vous avez fait, cela a contribué à la réussite de la réparation de l'ABS de ma GSA de 2007 (charbon bloqué également)

This motor comes apart easily. Look carefully at the video. You will see that the casing indents only prevent radial motion, not axial. Grab the shaft in the chuck of a portable drill, put your feet on the casing and pull straight up. Do not turn on the drill. I did and broke of the plastic catches, which do not appear to do much anyway. You can see one is broken in the video. The little resistance you feel is from the permanent magnets being attracted to the steel rotor. If you want to get a feel of it first, remove the rubber ring and pry with a screwdriver. You will feel the springiness of the magnetic pull. I reassembled by wrapping a hose clamp around the whole thing. This can put a good deal of inward force on the motor casing but really only a small amount is required because the axial thrust is minimal. One of the brushes was stuck, I freed it but it never really made good contact with the commutator. I took the system apart twice but was unable to fix the problem. If I do it again I will have to take some drastic measure like try and pull the brush out somehow. Finally, thank you very much for this excellent video.

Good clear no BS Video, keep up the good work mate. Cars are so complex now, years ago you could fix most problems with a Shifter and a Screwdriver, not anymore.

Great video - very clear and easy to follow. Thanks very much, most helpful.

U R GREAT GUY, I LIKE YOUR CHANNEL, a lot of knowladge which you give us THANK YOU

Brilliant going to give it a go tomorrow on a z4 with the exact same codes

Many thanks, keep up the good work! Your videos are excellent.

thanks so much just went and tapped on my abs motor and lights went out ml430 wow

great video think i have this problem, only had the car 3 days. think i might have a go at doing it myself

Finally great solution! What kind of lubricant did you use?

Good video professional as always

One of the best videos!

Unfortunately, ou skipped the 3 most important parts: 1) Removing the motor housing, 2) putting the housing back on and 3) securing the motor to the pump. Otherwise, great video...

Thanks for posting this video - I recently got the dreaded 5DFO & 5DF1 codes and couldn't believe the cost to replace the pump. After reading that the brushes could be the cause (i.e. frequently get stuck) I decided to gently tap the pump housing with a small hammer. To my surprise the errors went away after days being on, time will tell if it comes back. If the codes do come back I have your helpful video to try and diagnose it further. Question: What process did you use to bleed the brakes? Was there anything special you needed to do considering the ABS module was removed?

Thanks for the video I suspected my GS BMW having the same problem

NZ Steve likes your work

Simple question, how do you remove the black metal covering? I see four tabs, however cannot compress them

Well done !

subscribed. thanks for the video

Great Job, thank you very much from France.

nice video, thanks

Nice im on my way to try this😣 wish me luck

my 2007 z4m bmw lights went off by tapping the pump but came back on when the traction was activated while driving

Do you still fix them? Thanks.

Based on what you found it doesn't seem such a bad idea to give the pump a whack to free the bushes although they would probably still need lubricating for a more longer term fix.

Fantastic fix! I also liked the Autel diagnostic unit--impressive. Will that unit also cycle the ABS pump to help bleed?

Hi i have a vectra c and the abs activates for five minutes when driving off then abs light stays on and pump goes quiet. I have replaced all wheel speed sensors and the only code coming back is c0274......do i need to replace the abs unit or have you had this before. Cheers

Fancy fixing mine for me :)

fantastic, .. I'm not saying ABS is no good but there are still many problems with a lot of systems, you would think that by now they would outlast the vehicle. It shouldn't be difficult to re-stake the motor, or use a simple sprag clip to hold it in place. They intend that you don't fix the motor.

Thank you for this video. You contribute for many people for them success. But one question i've opened e93 dsc pump i lubricate it but motor can't turn very well like yours, what lubricate product have you used and can i change pump motor with any other dsc module, please?

Great video, does the pump need to bled also? I think it's called a "dealer bleed" and it's done with INPA software or a scanner tool like u have

Brilliant video. My E91 has the same fault code 5DF0 and 5DF1. Allthough i'm not a mecanic this seems not to hard. I'll give it a try with some help of a friend

Hi, great video! If you can't repair your original pump I've been told it is not possible to put a 2nd hand/remanufactured pump on another z series or 6 cylinder bmw, as these have been programmed to the original car, is this correct? or can they be reprogrammed?

Great work. In my Peugeot 307 the Abs motor when tested on 12v battery it work but when connected to main Abs connector and start the engine the Abs motor don't work. Please I need advice

Brilliant more money saved.when you bled the brakes is just normal procedure ie no special tools.

Thank you for watching

Excellent !!!!!! Question: my 2008 Z M has 75;000 miles, but was flooded 6 years ago. When I bought it it had these warning lights, I hit The motor a few times and so far is working (one day ago) will this continue? And what is the average mileage for this to start happening in this cars? Thanks again for the video

Lovely video, wish i saw this before buying another pump. Do you know what error code 5E38 mean and how to fix it?

very nice, so you didnt use any new parts?

interesting video and informative, but i had an issue with my brakes which wouldnt bleed so changed the dsc pump, and still i have an issue with no fluid coming through the front brakes, i noticed you said there were pressure sensors in the pump, would these pressure sensors be preventing fluid coming through after i changed my hoses, ive heard allot about a proportional valve but i cannot find one and presuming these switches are in the actual dsc, i would be grateful for any advice and help as iv'e been without a car now for over a week with non bleeding issue, great video.👍👍

can pull the mk60 apart any help be good as the new used pump I cant calibrate the steering with inpa have very little software so in hope I could solder the old pump up if I had an idea how it came apart would be most helpful thanks u

Just one quick question. I was wondering if is possible that an ABS pump sends fluid to brakes without user pushing brakr pedal (assuming that ABS ECU actuates motor in apply direction) ?

Can I ask you what you have used to seal the motor. Silver coating visible on 12:05... Mine is leaking after repair.

that's what I thought I cleared them to get 5df5. & 17fe so do u think its the DSC unit that's had it thanks

When you lubed the brushes in their cages, what did you use?

Quick question - Z4 gives intermittent similar light....dealer suggesting replacing DSC Hydraulic Unit. Is there a way to repair and fix instead of expensive replace?

Hello, my dsc pump ist working fine when i test it but when i apply it to the car it doesn‘t work help?

how did you open the motor casing? just prying etc..

OK so to do that is there somewhere u take it apart I can see 2 screw but can't get at them can u confirm I just pop the top off or is that wrong thanks

I got two things to ask you number one did you have to reprogram your device when you place it back in the car you know your pump and my other question is I have a code that came up for my abs and it was 77 pressure sensor would that be just a pressure sensor screw in adapter or would that be the pump on the driver side or the pump on the passenger side

Siri have a bmw 2012 x3 f25 x20 drive fault are D02C67 D02D44 inside Airbag system I don't have repair manual I couldn't solve please help me

how did you get motor apart back together be nice to know

Great video, but how did you identify the positive and negative terminal? Talking about the part when you tested to see if the motor worked.

I repaird that foult without disasembling anythink from car, i just hit few times in motor to unlock brushes in motor, and after 3months still work. After that i run for few seconds abs motor with ds708

Do i need to bleed the brakes if i remove the pump itself and ECU part without opening that metal part off the car?

Excellent work. I have the same codes on my E93. It's a 2007 so it is the model year of the faulty motor brushes. I have seen 2nd hand modules for around £90, could I just put the pump/motor assembly onto my module? I'm thinking if I damage mine! I can do the tapping of the motor body trick but it only lasts a couple of days or bizarrely until it rains???? so it must be my pump, right? Also, I see the motor cover has 4 small slots which I guess is where the motor clips into the body. Would it be possible to force those clips in and remove the motor? Thanks in advance. Sorry for all the questions.

i have this problem in a mitsubishi lancer... but not always... sometimes yes and sometimes no...

Hello Do you know dimensions of the carbon brush ?thanks 👌

Is there a way to remove the hydraulic solenoids and cleaning them? I change the rear brakes on my car and force dirty brake fluid back into the solenoid now I do not have back brakes.

You are a hero. Im gonna try this tomorrow! What country are you in?

Hi, not sure you are still active. Got it revised, installed the pump again an now I have a break fluid leak. Not at any line continue but somewhere else. Have not been able to remove the pump. Sunday I will remove it. But do you know perhaps what could cause a leak? I see at the magnets, there are rubbers? Could they leak?

did you have to bleed the brake fluids? or just installed back on? Thanks

Does the polarity matter when supplying 12v dc?

Hammer should do the trick in this case :)

How did you manage to open the motor

Could you "bench test" the pump while on the car still? I can get at the electronic module and separate as you did at 2:09 while still on the car. With all the hydraulic lines still connected, can I test the pump as you showed?

Hi Louis, from the module to the pump I expected to see 12v but I see 7.4v when I turn on the ignition ? .. it works, what am I missing?

What did you use to clean brushes?

Hey I've got the same problem but I stripped the unit down and the pump runs just fine on a power supply. Any ideas of what my fault might be? I thought the motor might be lazy but it is impossible to tell.

wot does the pump do i.e wot does it pump

How did you secure the motor back to the pump assembly? Im gonna do this in the upcoming weekend and see if i can clear the codes too. The whack method works for sometime so i assume the coals are stuck in the motor

how much you charge for that one?

I think you would like to see these, same problem and repair kit on ebay. abs info kit. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133019812807 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IuHk64zRhQc.html you can also use 2mm roll pins sideways over the motor flanges to hold them down tight. when putting power into the valve body how do you know which is +/-

Not showing us how to get the pump off and how to get it back on again means this video is not what it could have been.

You must be rich by now

look at my video so you see what happen to me!!
