ABS Pump

What is a ABS Pump?

The ABS pump is part of the Antilock Braking System (ABS). The pump provides pressure to the brakes. After the ABS ECU has detected wheel slip it signals for the valves to open to release the brake, the pump restores braking pressure once the valve closes. It is an integral part of the system and is controlled by the ECU.

Failing ABS pumps can have different symptoms. Generally if you notice changes in the response of the braking pedal there could be an issue with the pump.

What problems can be caused by a faulty ABS Pump?

Brake pedal unresponsive

ABS warning light shows on dashboard

Car skids and brakes lock up when braking hard

Brakes making a clicking sound

How much does it cost to replace the ABS Pump?

The cost of an ABS pump replacement can be eye-watering, they can go from £500 up to £2000+ fitted for some car makes.

If your ABS pump needs replacing then whatever happens there's going to be a fairly decent cost involved.

Before you book the work in though there are some companies out there who offer amazing value repair services on these parts, so make sure you search for repairers who can fix the ABS pump for your make and model, you could save a small fortune and get the part repaired and warrantied.

Infotainment screen blank but working?

The screen went to coloured lines for a few days then went blank. The audio works and the touch screen bleeps when touched but you can't see what you're touching.
