Car scanner not bringing up brake faults on e90 bmw

Hi guys, I’ve been using my dad’s scanner and it won’t bring up any faults regarding brakes - I’ve abs, dsc and other warning lights on dash.

Basically on the scan, the section for brakes has a line stroking the brakes section out and we have never seen this before, my dad uses this scanner universally on many cars.

Some have told me I need bmw specific software but the fact that it won’t read brake faults, makes me think that some module must have failed.

So my question.

  1. Could a failed abs pump cause this? Or an abs module?

  2. Can a module be replaced without replacing the pump, if so is coding required?

My dads friend is a breaker and they have a lot of e90’s, so we can get replacement parts for free

Thanks
