Interior
Refurbishment
In December 2012, set 05-114 underwent "type B" refurbishment, with a number of improvements utilizing features on the newer 15000 series sets. The traction motors were replaced with new PMSM, as used on the Chiyoda Line 16000 series sets, and internally, 17-inch LCDpassenger information screens were added above the doorways. The same was done to sets 05-115 to 05-118 over the next few years.
Overseas operations
Eight former 05 series sets have been shipped to Kereta Commuter Indonesia in Jakarta, Indonesia. They are sets 05-102, 05-104, 05-105, 05-107, 05-108, 05-109, 05-110 and 05-112. These sets have been reduced to eight cars. Set 05-107 was withdrawn following derailment accident damage sustained in October 2012.
