What it means

The ABS or brake control module has detected an electrical fault in the brake pump motor circuit. The pump is used to build brake pressure during ABS, ESP and brake-by-wire operations and a fault disables these functions.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.
