Automation Repair
We repair ABB industrial drives, PLCs and operator panels at component level, from the original ACS, ACQ and SAMI drives through to the AC500 PLC platform and CP600 panels.
Every unit is assessed free of charge, repaired at component level in our Bolton workshop and returned fully tested with a 12-month warranty and test report.

Key features of our service
Common faults we repair
ABB labels faults by family: F-codes on the ACS550 and ACS600 drives, four-digit codes on the ACS800 and ACS880. These are the trips we repair most often.
- F0001 – overcurrent trip (power stage, motor cable or motor insulation)
- F0002 – DC bus overvoltage on deceleration or a failed braking chopper
- F0003 – DC bus undervoltage (missing supply phase, rectifier failure)
- F0005 – drive overtemperature (failed fan, blocked heatsink)
- F0016 – earth fault in the motor or motor cable
- F0022 – supply phase loss and DC bus ripple (rectifier bridge)
- 2330 – earth leakage fault on ACS880 (insulation breakdown)
- 4210 – overtemperature on ACS880 (cooling fan or airflow)
- 7121 / 7122 – motor stall detection (jam or lost feedback)
- 5090 – STO hardware fault (safety circuit or control board)
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a failed ABB drive or automation component can be expensive, particularly when the original model is obsolete or difficult to source. Repairing the existing equipment can be a faster, more cost-effective solution while avoiding unnecessary replacement, reprogramming and commissioning.
- Repair is also the only option for obsolete and discontinued units, where a like-for-like replacement no longer exists. Where a repair is not economic, we say so and can supply a tested refurbished unit instead.
