- ** Bleed the brake system after fitting pump **
The Vauxhall Corsa (D) between 2006 and 2014 has a common fault with the braking system. The ABS pump commonly fails giving rise to a lack of braking effort to the front brake caliper, resulting in the vehicle pulling to one side. In my case the driver side caliper was the issue, however this fault is more common with the passenger side.
This was a dangerous issue that happened to me during an emergency stop where the braking force was reduced and the car swerved to the left. From inspection I found that no brake fluid was being supplied to the caliper making it impossible to bleed the brakes, and therefore the piston wasn't moving to compress the brake pads. Leading me to think the issue was an internal fault within the ABS pump.
Managed to get my hands on a second hand pump for a decent price, but there are services that refurbish existing pumps at a little more extra cost of a used one. This is a pretty simple swap of pumps that would save alot of money with labour cost by following my video.
However, I am not responsible for any damage caused.
Hope you all find the video helpful and good luck with your ABS Pump :)
Thanks mate! I didn't have a pump to swap over straight away, I sent mine off to be repaired and this vid helped me to remove mine.
I just got my Honda jazz abs pump replaced due to a common fault. This video helped me realise its do able without paying thousands. I got another pump from a breakers.
Honda asking 2k for a pump ffs
ayy there we go. Always a way around spending tons for new replacements
@@BrianVibert1 definitely, when your new to this problem it seems like alot of hassle. It's mainly trying to match the part numbers up. I think we matched 2 up and all seems fine.
I would have had to scrap my car if I didn't get the pump replaced. Such a small part to scrap a car over.
I know was a headache for my too. Took me ages to figure out the problem
I also have 2005 Honda jazz i am getting a code 53-1 abs pump relay short circuit, was this similar to yours
@@abcars2856 have you googled the code or is that what the diagnostics is coming up with ? There is a well known place called ecu testing where you can send the pump off and then have it returned fixed . Whatever you do , don't go to the dealership . Itl be 2k just to get the part .
Do you not need to bleed the brake system after replacing the pump?
Yes most definitely
Hi all, cheers for the advice so far, I got my ABS pump replaced last week and all was ok, however after 5 days of driving the ABS light has come on, anyone know why this might be? The ABS module seemed in good condition, going to take it back to the garage and hope it's an easy fix.
Io ho sostituito la pompa con una identica però le spie sul quadro non vanno via come posso risolvere
Hey man, do you not need to recode/reprogramme the ABS pump after replacing it? My mechanic mentioned that after replacing the pump with another pump, it may need reprogramming with a Vauxhall dealer, is that right?
No need to programme as long as tne replacement pump matches all numbers
@@BrianVibert1 Ahh, good to know, cheers.
I got exactly same issue.. front right brake line dried up.. no supply of brake fluid...
Hi Brian,
Thats for doing these vids, will save me a lot of money! My daughters 2010 Corsa 1.3 diesel CDTI Ecoflex has this issue and I'm going to replace it, but looking on eBay I'm struggling to find the correct one, a lot say fits Corsa 1.3 CDTI but a little unsure, in your vid you say make sure the serial number is the correct one, which serial number am I looking for, there's loads of numbers on the unit?
Thanks, and any help would be much appreciated as the car is currently off the road,
Adrian
I just recently got mine changed on my car, brought a reconditioned one from Ebay, check the big letters on the front, make sure they match up. Mine was FE
Damn, this video goes hard 🤙🏾🤙🏾
yea boi
As the electric connections on the base of my Zafira ABS module were very wet I was advised to replace the complete module but to make sure I got a replacement that had the same code ie the same 2 large 'BJ' letters in the top right corner of the printed label on the side of the black top on ABS module. I have just purchased a replacement ( BJ ) and now after reading the replies here am uncertain of the way forward. Any advice welcome.
Got to make sure all the numbers matched otherwise it may be to be coded
Hi, did you have to remove the battery surround as well as the battery? Or is there enough room with just the battery removed? Great vid by the way. 👍
There is enough room with just the battery removed. It would make it easier but I managed to do it with just the battery out. Appreciate, subscribe to support 🙏
Don't get brake fluid on ANYTHING that paint stripper can harm! Those rubber grommets are now mush. (brake fluid swells any rubber not made for exposure to it)
Otherwise, nicely done!

What is the usual labour cost to replace this ABS pump in the UK?
Unsure but I would guess at least £150
Does the ABS pump have to be programmed after replacement.
Not unless it's an exact replacement and the codes match
@@BrianVibert1 What codes need to match? Just the ones that look like a barcode or the other numbers engraved on the metal bit too?
@@McAshman2k9 Numbers engraved
Can you just plug and play. The foreman asking a lot of money because they say you need to programme it back and bleed the brake...
I did all replacing new master cylinder and new brake oil... Just my abs is not working... Can i plug and play....
If you replace the pump with exact serial codes then there is no need to code as its a direct swap. Just need to bleed the system
@@BrianVibert1 do you remove battery power... because want to avoid abs ligt faulty on later after replacing it..
@@eunuseusuf Yes remove battery power for precautions
Do you have a video on changing a master cylinder on the corsa D as I think mine is faulty
sorry no
Hi, I have the same issue with Opel corsa D 1.3 CDTI 95HP. The serial numbers are 0265 251 864 / 13350598 101025/5/2749 AG5. I bought a second hand pump, the first 2 codes matched, ahte big letters matched (AG5), but the mechanic told me ALL the serial numbers must match, or it will not work.
Which way is it, which serial numbers must match for both pumps, so it can work?
Thank you
All the numbers must match
@@BrianVibert1 but the third one, 101025 / /... Isn t this one something related to the date? I mean 0265 251 864 is the OEM nr, the other one 133...is the VM number.
Isn t it good that only those 2 have to match? Thank you
Did you have to clear the warning light? O r does it go out .
Cleared it
@@BrianVibert1 Ok I could not get the darn light to go out. Vauxhall had wired the 5A line to the heated front seat. I took the fuse out because I didn't think I had one. Fixed now anyway.
and just like that , no moded need after this operation ?
I had some problems with hyundai accent 3 1.5 crdi , in high trafic when i apply the brake frequently all my 4 wheels are blockng , i have to put on the right , push the brake pedal 3 times to the floor and than my wheels are free, i try to change my master brake pump 1 day it was ok , and than in high trafic again my wheels are blocking , the last solution was to buy a sh abs pump and module , but I'm afraid to change it because i heard that is an hard operation that involve much steps from very good bleeding and moding the new abs pump with a tester,it's that true?
I think try a new abs pump. Easy to change, as long as you bleed from furthest wheel first and move on it's fine
@@BrianVibert1 thank you very much , Brian , I will replace it very soon.
I’ve recently changed my wheel bearing and after doing so abs light came on so I possibly thought my abs sensor was damaged so replaced this and I’m having the issue with abs light still on and brakes locking up would you say this is a faulty abs pump or something else?thanks in advance
Try bleeding brakes to see if there is brake fluid flow. If there is pump is probably fine. Try hard resetting ie battery disconnect or obd scanner
@@BrianVibert1 took car to get out on computer as when changed wheel bearing the abs sensor happened and then brakes did the lock up thing and the mechanic said abs sensor fault change that but still doing it but it feels like the back wheel is locking up and not the wheel that had the initial problem with
@@xijordyixxijordyix4392 Does the car pull to oneside when you brake?
@@BrianVibert1 no pulling to one side breaks just lock up the original problem was on the front left wheel and now that’s fixed the rear left seems to be locking up it’s very strange
@@xijordyixxijordyix4392 Doesn't sound like the abs pump. Try taking brakes off and inspect it
Do you need to flush all the brake oil to remove the abs pump?
no you don't but will have a slight spill
@@BrianVibert1 yeah just founded myself 2 hours ago, ihihih thanks man
When you bled the brakes did you do it with the engine running or not?
I had engine on to get the pump working
@@BrianVibert1 I thought so, also when bleeding the brakes did you do it in any particular order as I’ve read you should start with the wheel furthest away from the driver and then work your way closer to the driver
@@benphillips773 Yes you start from the brake furthest away from the pump so if in the UK it would be driver rear, passenger rear, driver front, lastly passenger front
@@BrianVibert1 so no need to use a software from the manufacturer to run a bleeding procedure of the ABS ? Manual solution is enough for a Corsa D ?
@@jerome7716 No manual bleeding is sufficient. Car doesn't need any software if your replacing the exact same part
Mate my Vxhl Corsa eco flex ABS PUMP driver side not work
Mechanic said to take the ABS off and send to repair or get a new one which may cost £1000.
What you recon ?
Repair?, or A second hand one ? Or a brand new one ?
2013 model 45k mile
Please give your suggestions
Mine cost £120 to get repaired in Accrington
@@BrianVibert1 Hi Brian! Can I ask you where in Accrington? I am looking into getting mine repaired. Also, basic question, how do you stop the brake fluid draining while you have the ABS pump off for repair?
It was an ebay seller advertising his srvices to repair abs pumps based in Accrington. Have a look on ebay. I had a spare old pump and put that on while other was being repaired. But I guess you can use some rubber bungs of right size
@@BrianVibert1 Thanks a lot Brian, will give it a go today!
Glad to help
And bleed system?
Yes bleed
Cant hear what he is saying
Im sure that I am speaking clearly?
@@BrianVibert1 one of the lines connected to the Abs pump is broken can i replace them individually?
@@uswr2848 Yes im sure you can
