C0110: ABS Pump Motor Circuit Malfunction
Standardized SAE J2012 code · C01xx codes
Safety-critical system. Faults in airbags, brakes, steering or high-voltage components can put people at risk. Follow the manufacturer's service information and safety procedures, or have the vehicle checked by a qualified workshop.
What does C0110 mean?
The ABS control module has detected a fault in the hydraulic pump motor circuit. The pump rebuilds brake pressure during ABS regulation — without it, ABS and stability control are disabled.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Symptoms
- ABS warning light on
- ESC/stability control deactivated
- Possible reduced brake assist
- Speedometer may behave erratically
Common causes
- High ABS pump motor failed (worn brushes, seized)
- Medium ABS pump relay failed
- Low Power supply wiring or fuse fault
