- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- This is a video tutorial on how to bleed an ABS brake system. Air can get trapped up in the valves of the ABS system which can't be in the system for it to work properly. So we need to get that air out using a scanner to open and close the valves. I will show you exactly how to do that. Thanks for watching!

excellent video. I also knew nothing about the ABS bleed method. btw, I have always used clear tube at the bleeder so I can see air bubbles and fluid color.
Thanks for watching!
I saw where several people had replaced all brake components prior to bleeding system. One thing I saw no mention of is that all rotors need to be trued when new . They are not always true when new and that will cause pre mature wear on new pads . And if you are just replacing pads the rotor is just like the surface of a cylinder in a motor. They need just a bit turned on a brake lathe or they will just also eat up new pads.
Cheaper solution to the autel scanner if you're working on Ford products is a laptop/windows tablet a Bluetooth obd dongle and forscan software. The software is free and can do alot more then just bleed brakes.
Yeah that will work for Ford products but other makes aren't so lucky. Thanks for watching!
Great video . Same issue here Soft pedal hits the floor zero response took to shop they replaced caliper and module paid over $ 300 dlrs such of waisted of money had to tow car from mechanic shop on top of that extra &120 for towing truck. some b sh
The Rav4 is famous for an inexplicable low, soft pedal after ANY brake work. That includes not even opening up a bleeder at all. I'm hoping this works.
Did you ever figure it out? I bled my brakes and the brakes suck now
@snowss6890 ....been battling this for 2 years. Next up, a second master cylinder, bleed again with a pressure pump. Not confident. Really think it's an ABS bleed thing.
Can you use a power bleeder (pressurized) with procedure and not have to pump the brakes?
This. I am wondering the same.
@@cosmokenneyglad to see your reply. The answer is yes. I did it this way on my ford.
@@ProfessorDavidBower Thanks.
Thank you very much for the video. Just to confirm, by attaching the scanner and follow the instruction for all four wheels, did we only bleed the ABS system as per the scanner, and we will still have to manually bleed all four wheels again by the traditional way? Or did we actually achieved bleeding both the main system, as well as the ABS system?
For me it worked and bled the entire system, BUT I would check after the ABS process and make sure you have a very firm pedal. If not then bleed like normal. Thanks for watching Karl!
If you don’t manually bleed the system afterwards then you would just be sending the air bubble somewhere else in the lines, I would assume at least
Thank you guys!
Excellent video my friend and looking easy to do. Thk u.
Thank you! Cheers!
This is a very informative video but will this method work if the ABS is not currently working? I had to open the brake system on my 2008 Impala and could only get 3 out of 4 of the lines to bleed. BTW. The wheel that wouldn’t bleed was the one where I replaced the caliper (left rear).
Yes the values need to be opened in the ABS pump. Don't use a vacuum bleeder you will damage the ABS pump.
Makes more sense, having a bleeder screw open while running a autobleed of the ABS. Other abs autobleed functions does the procedure with all the bleeders closed…. so where would the air go with pressurized fluid on both sides of the air??
Nothing wrong with a 5.4 3v. People just need to maintain them. 303,000 K on mine and still going strong.
Impressive! You aren't wrong but, so many people don't do the work. Thanks for watching!
Yep, just hit 200K miles on mine and no issues. Been dead solid reliable.
maybe it is reliable, but theres still something wrong... Its made by Ford
240,000 on mine no issues just regular maintenance
No, Ford engineered that engine with bad cam phasers that ARE going to go out at some point. Was and is a bad engine. Ford is better than that. 2004-2008 was terrible for the 5.4 engine
Excellent video
i think you will all find that it only bleads air outta the abs modul not the actual 4 lines .its not ment to it just activates the valves in the abs unit to push any air out .becouse you carnt get air out in a normal break blead esp if you let the vsystem run out of fluid by accident or whatever.
Did this but got to the vin decoding… for whatever reason won’t decode my vin- 2016 f150
I don't have any scanner. Can I do manual?
I purchased this scanner after watching this video. I recently replaced an HCU on a 2018 dodge ram and when I tried doing the ABS bleed after that, the system only cycles through the right front and right rear and then says test complete. I contacted the company that makes the scanner but they weren't very helpful and didn't have a definite answer on why it is doing that. Just wondering if you know if this is how some abs system bleeds work or is there any issue with the software for this vehicle?
dont you just love it when every one else gets an answear except you , ignorant or what. but m8 dont worry ive just bought exact same scan tool going do abs auto bleed tomorrow ill let you know if it only does front right and back only . or all 4 . im doing it on a 2003 jag stype.
On the Alltel scan tool says do left front why did you do the back
Another thing. My front brakes are locked. They don't let fluid return to the master cylinder. I replaced one of the flex hoses and the calipers and the pads but they still stay locked. I'm an automotive mechanic of 40 years and i have never had this problem or have i ever seen this problem. I also replaced the booster and master cylinder. Very,very frustrating.
Did you find the solution? I have that problem now
Iif theres air in system will it give false code ie reluctor ring tooth missing along with abs light on dash?
I'm interested in the Autel MX808 scan tool. However I've heard that to calibrate the linear valve in the ASB control I'll need a scan tool that communicates bi-directionally. I believe that would be the 906BT. Is this correct?
The mx808 just got a new update in June 2022 its now bidirectional. I just bought mine 3 days ago
Will this scanner do a break bleed on 2013 Hybrid Ford C-Max?
Yeah it should. Thanks for watching!
I did new lines and calipers and I had the car running when I did the bleeding coz then the abs pump is on Is that right
The car should be off
My Toyota vigo have a brake problem pedal always spongy what to do
Hi, I did all steps but after click hot functions this shows up : the selected function is not supported” any idea what is that for? Thanks!
Try updating your scanner. Thanks for watching!
Nice video! I've got a 2016 Silverado 2500 HD, I bought the truck new in May 2016. Every time I apply the brakes on the first push the pedal feels a little spongy but if I let go and reapply the brakes then it feels hard and no sponginess. Every time I went to the garage I'd forget to mention it and now 6 years later it still does it but I got used to it. My wife probably never noticed it because she never said anything about it. I guess I might have air in the system. Am I correct to assume that? I'd actually like to replace the brake fluid since it's 6 years old. Would I just follow this procedure till I see the new fluid come out of the hose? Thanks,
Hi! I have exactly the same brake pedal problem like yours. Were you able solve this problem just through abs bleeding system? I am supposed to go to a Honda service I think.
@@fcesur77could be master cylinder or brake booster.
My brake pedal pulsates when I press the pedal so, I had the entire system flushed for possible air. It didn't work. My ABS light comes on for a while but will go off. 06 caravan 3.3. Any ideas?
in addition to the below comment, i need to add something. in your video you say to click on anti lock brake bleed. well,i dont have that icon. i have automated icon which runs the pump while holding the brake to check pressure im assuming. why do i not have the anti lock brake bleed?
What is the difference with normal bleeding procedure? now most cars have ABS. Why I need the scan tool to do it?
Because this tool open and closes valves in the ABS module where air might be trapped. Thanks for watching!
Will this scanner work on a 2020 Honda CRV for bleeding the ABS system? And does this update through wifii?
Yes it should and yes it will. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros , thank you
Is it a two person job?
Thanks for video .Does this code reader work on older models 1998 Toyota ?
Yeah it would. OBDII came in as a mandate in 96 so you are good. Thanks for watching!
Hi can this be used for Ford Fusion 2011? The scanner?
Yep. Thanks for watching!
can i bleed it by hard connecting its relay?
What kind of scan I could buy for that car for a 2012 Fiesta Ford stauber G my abs
Ryan if I buy this tool and follow exactly what it says to do can I do this my self with my husband helping me please let me know thank you in advance
Yeah definitely. Thanks for watching!
If you had air in the abs module would it throw an ABS light on?
Yeah it could. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros Thank you! After changing all my brake lines it's now thrown the ABS light on with codes for front and back sensors on passenger side.. I find that really strange that both sensors just die at the same time so thought perhaps it's because I have trapped air in the abs module
I would have liked you to tell me the scanner is MANDATORY to perform this operation at the very beginning Otherwise, thank you.
Ok, how do you bleed the brakes when you have 2 bleeder screws per caliper. An inner and outer bleeder screw on a fixed caliper on a Porsche.
Bleed the brakes like you have two calipers. So bleed the inner like normal. Then bleed the outer. Thanks for watching!
Is this method needs two person ??
For a brake bleed? Yes. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros
Ok thank you .
You’r welcome.
Why does every ford mechanic on TH-cam not use Forscan? Every guy uses a different scanner that probably costs hundreds or more.
Fellow TH-camr @FordTechMakuloco does! He swears by it! However FORScan is a software scanner for Ford, Mazda, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles. I work on a wide verity of makes and models.
Thanks for watching!
Is this abs bleeder compatible with a 2011 Lincoln MKX?
Yeah it should be! Worked great on a 2014 Mercedes just recently. Thanks for watching Joey!
Does it work with 1997 ford truck 2000 chevy siverado.?
If they come with ABS then yes. Thanks for watching!
Would love to have that OBDII scanner but I only have 100 dollars. Someone assist me get one please
Hi where can I buy the scanner
Link is in the description! Thanks for watching!
I just did it with a $160 scanner you don't need a pro level scanner
Nice! Which one did you use? This scanner is considered cheap these days. Most pro level scanners are in the thousands of dollars. Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros it's the cheapest launch programmer/scanner you do have to have to be pretty smart to pull it off because there are no videos about that scanner and it is rough some pages are still in Chinese on the device even if select another language
@@epluribusunum6622 Good on you for figuring it out! I get frustrated with tech that doesn't work great. I'm glad there is a cheaper option out there!
Buyin a $ 479.00 Scan tool , means most DIY ers will have be at a shop
Oh drift control that's why
I did not understand the process
Where did I lose you?
@@2carpros in your first wheel you said the computer tells you to open the drain valve then you CLOSED, then after, the video shows that you are pressing the break and the pump is pumping the fluid from ABS to the bleeder valve, then you said you do that for all remaining wheels. i expected that at first you open the first bleeder valve You command the pump then finally you close. but i was surprised that you closed before commanding the pump. its on the 7:10 seconds of the video
2carpros: I think this coupled with the statement that two people are needed to do it are the only reason a few people may be confused.
Omary: the edit is slightly out of order;
when the helper sees the scanner read "open bleeder" the helper yells "open", signaling the wrench operator to open the bleeder. The mechanic then opens the bleeder and yells "open" The helper then pumps the brakes down and up every two seconds (is that right? Press pedal down slowly taking a full second to reach the bottom of its travel, release pedal and continue the count from one to two as the pedal returns itself to its upper position, repeat.) until the scanner reads "close bleeder", at which point the helper yells "close", signaling the mechanic to close the bleeder, at which point the mechanic closes the bleeder and yells "closed".
Move on to the next wheel and repeat.
@@erikdiamet2358thank you so much lol
nobody is spending $400 to bleed brakes. NEXT
Not much help if you DON"T have access to a scanner
Best option is on a rainy day slam on the brakes to activate the abs pump this actually works I've done it in the grass before
Why I can not find any professional brake bleeding person ? You must write down on the white board from step 1 to the end of step of how to do ,
Will this tool work on a 2000 Buick Century?
Yeah it sure will. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video. I let my Chevy Stepside sit for 6 years - the 350/5.7L engine fired right up! Love that engine even with 270k miles. But the brake pedal went to the floor. Topped the empty reservoir and tight pedal until powered up. Figured the ABS module was dried out. I don’t own a $500 module reader, so took it to Meineke. Thank you for confirming what I didn’t want to do!
How much did they charge you?
@@Grizzle400 Didn’t leave it with Meineke - they put me off 8 days. Went to my usual Les Schwab and got new brakes all 4 and I think it was $480? Long time ago now.
@@trick58 dang, yea i have a 2013 Ram 1500 with a bad Abs control module. Code C2200, and i was hoping this could possibly be the solution but I doubt it.
dont forget to keep the brake fluid reservoir topped up with fluid while pumping
I always bleed my brakes after changing pads & rotors but these new abs systems cannot be bled without a scan tool :(
Nicely done but the brake fluid level will most definitely drop. Bleeding one wheel for 75 seconds I would think based on having done this manually you may empty the Master Cylinder or to the point air gets into its piston, thus needing to remove the MC and do a bench bleed. The wierd thing for me is my scanner doesnt say to open any bleeder valve. It just runs the ABS bleed and says nothing? Got a 2003 Impala with a 3800. MY scanner a high end launch is up to date with the latest GM distribution. Gonna try again. Thanks!
Start the car and idle 5 minutes. Whilst running bleed as normal, job done 🤷♂️🤣🤣
Don't need expensive code readers/scanner
That won't always get the air out of an ABS pump. Thanks for watching!
Hi! I been noticing a weird safety issue with my bmw f20. Whenever I braked hard, my steering veers to the right, an indication my left front brake is not functioning well?
A quick trip to a workshop ends up in both front left and right rotor and brake pad change.
However when the mech tried to perform a bleeding of front right brake, he said it was not bleeding well enough. After many attempts he decided to check on my abs pump.
He disconnected the line out from abs pump to front right, and upon pressing the brakes, little brake fluid seems to be coming out of the abs pump supplying to front right.
Is this a sure tell tale sign of faulty abs pump? Or should I carry out the wiring test as shown by you guys
I suppose an air bubble can get in the module and make the right not work like it should. It is worth a try. Especially if the ABS has activated a bunch recently. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. I changed the master cylinder on my 2008 F-350. I couldn't get the brakes to bleed no matter what I did. Only air ever came out. Very frustrating. Will try this next using my scanner.
Does the mk808 scanner also work for vehicles with a VSA system, such as an 06 honda pilot?
Thank you for very good video . I very happy to see this Video . I am from Norway I have a Hyundai H-1 Starex Grand Starex 2013 . I have proleme withe brake . I have done like you but now I havent brake . Can you helpe me please .
thanks for your help. i did purchase the mk808. bleeding the brakes im only getting the brake pressure test, not the bleed left front, right front , left rear , etc. is there a download im missing? the petal is very soft. your new friend Greg.
I have a 1990 ford ranger and I just replaced the hydraulic abs assembly, bled the brakes and still feel like I have air in the system. I asked my mechanic friend and he said bleed the abs assembly, I found a spot for a bleeder tube and all, I don’t have the fancy computer stuff newer vehicles have, just bleed the abs from the bleeder screw on the abs assembly?
oh I thought the Ford 5.4 was suppose to be good I had a 4.7 V8 in my 98' Ford F-150 4x4 with 5spd manual I didn't like it at all it seem to struggle lots no power but I just look up the actual CID on 5.4L it is 330 CID that explains the problem it is was the worst truck motor ever
I have a 2011 jeep grand Cherokee Laredo with a 3.6 L, what I need to do the same thing to it? I have a soft pedal and I just change the master cylinder but I still can’t get it to break properly
I have never subscribed to anybody's channel ever in my life just period but on behalf of the easy n simple fact that you are literally the only person that I have ever witnessed doing a video n was cool enuff to let us know exactly what time to skip forward to just to get straight to the point im most definately subscribing to ur channel everybody else that I watched makes u watch da whole dam video with a bunch of bullshit in the mean tym between tym..anyways thanx 4 not wasting our tym n u being honest is why u r my 1st subscription period more people should do that
That's amazing! Thank you so much for subscribing!
Really nice video! I kept trying to wipe the scratch off my laptop screen in the middle. 🤣🤣🤣
Great, I need to buy another ducking tool. The disrespect for the home mechanic is criminal.
Sorry about that but yeah. At least this scanner is only 500. A scanner like this used to be like 25k. Thanks for watching!
Very good video!! I’m Using an MK906BT on a 2002 Tahoe w/soft pedal after caliper replacements.
The abs bleed procedure doesn’t prompt me to open any bleeder screws. Seems to me that it won’t do any good if the air isn’t allowed to escape. Any thoughts?
I’m going to have a helper open each corner in succession and try again.
you probably figured this out already but it sounds like you were using the bi-directional testing function of your scan tool and not the abs bleed function.
In the case, the air will be pushed out the and module to the brake lines, then do a regular bleed to remove the air from the brake lines
I just bought the scanner. Followed all steps and clicked on brake bleed. When I enter the vin and click on hot functions the only option available is All sensors. Abs bleed is nowhere to be found. PLEASE HELP
Make sure you have the latest software update for the scanner. I update mine all the time. If the option still doesn't come up you might need to contact AUTEL's customer support. They have great customer support and I would not hesitate to reach out to them. Thanks for watching!
The MK 808 Scanner is like 470 bucks. Seems like a lot of money to keep a worthless braking system working.
You could borrow, rent it, or buy a $30 scan tool.
Yep. I can't guarantee any other scanner I haven't personally use. I can't recommend a cheaper unit then it doesn't work and you have an effectively useless scanner laying around. Thanks for watching!
At what point did you add fluid to the brake reservoir?
If it drops then add some after the bleed. Thanks for watching!
Excellent video. I put this question in a reply. So the bleeder valve is open with the hose in brake fluid so it cannot suck air back into the system. Close the valve when the scanner says to close the valve and move on to the next wheel. I drive a 2010 Toyota Tundra, this tool you recommend will work for the Tundra as well?
Thanking you in advance,
Anthony J
How does one know if there is air in the ABS module and it needs to be bled?
Usually the pedal will be spongy. Thanks for watching!
Great video, I have a 96 E350, any idea what scanner might work with a van that is that old ?
I have a 2000 ford excursion, I replaced all calipers, rotors and pads, Ive bleed the brakes (like normal), I also discovered a brake like with a hole it. I replaced that to. refilled the system..bleed the brakes another 3 times, and I still have a sinking brake pedal. I found out about the abs module needing bleed. I cracked each line bleeding them like a caliper having someone pushing the pedal inside. STILL when its not running, I have a rock hard brake pedal after pumping a few times. but when its running...pedal sinks to the floor before the brakes grab at all. HELP!!!!
Do I need a scan tool to do this on a vehicle this old? that will fix my issue? or do I have a bad brake booster?
Master cylinder. 2009 sonata with same exact symptoms. I bled the brakes today (old school way) and got plenty of fluid out at each corner, rotors still look brand new after a couple hours of trying to break the new rotors and pads in.
If the booster was bad you wouldn't be able to move the pedal even with the engine running. In other words, no power brakes.
I always heard to start at the back most/furthest caliper from the master cylinder. Is that not the case?
Yeah it's a good idea. Thanks for watching!
I bought the same unit for my 2004 f150 so I could bleed the abs system but mine says vehicle not supported. Any idea why this won't work?
Worked perfectly on my 2005 F150. Basically the same truck. I would update the unit. Thanks for watching!
Yes write Autel and get an update
HOW ABOUT THE AUTO BLEED. some show you do not have to open at each wheel. will the auto bleed still bleed all the air from the lines and the pump motor.
If you follow the steps on screen it will get all the air from the pump, but maybe not all the way out the lines. You might have to bleed brakes like normal afterwards if the pedal feels soft or spongy. Thanks for watching!
This is a question can this be used to bleed the ABS module itself and then do the brakes
Ryan I heard from my brother that there is a subscription and you have to be be licensed like a mechanic or something is this true or no I can give you me email or messenger name so we could chat a little more about this I just want to get my truck fixed but don't know alot about mechanics but I can bleed brakes I've helped my brother before
No. Not true at all. Anyone can get and use this tool. Thanks for watching!
I own a 2020 Jeep Wrangler and I am having problems with spongy brake peddle
When I purchased the jeep brand new it had excellent brakes
The peddle was firm and quick to respond
Now after about 3000k miles I have lost the peddle and they are spongy slow to respond
I believe after watching your video that is may have happened after the jeep went into anti spin mode once while off road This is not a problem with just my jeep If you go to the JL Wrangler forum you will see that others have the same problem and the dealer is no help. They say its normal. IT IS NOT NORMAL AND I NEED TO FIX IT
I purchased a FOXWELL NT630 to perform the ABS brake bleeding like I saw in in your video with the Autel put it would not perform the individual wheel brake bleed with the ABS pump running
What it did do I think was open inlet and outlet valves and run the ABS pump so I did bleed the brakes several times opening the valves and running the pump
This did improve the peddle by 50% put I can still tell there is air in the system
All this to say do you know if the Autel will run an individual wheel ABS brake bleed like seen in your video on a Jeep Wrangler JL 2018 to 2021
Thanks for your help
Larry
Excellent diagnosis it sounds like you are 100% correct. Off road use with ABS can absolutely get air in the ABS system and cause that problem.
It did on my 2005 F150 I can't imagine it wouldn't on your Jeep. I'd order it Amazon and see if it works, if not return it, if it does hang on to it.
Thanks for watching!
@@2carpros Thank you and Thank you for your video
I have been an auto technician for over 40 years and never heard of ABS inducing air into a brake system and I did not think it was possible until I say your video
What you said about a master cylinder makes sense PUT the engineers need to figure out how to stop this from happening
Despite what the dealer said I new there was something wrong and was determined to find out what and fix it
I get the Autel MK808 on Friday and will bleed the brake again and I am sure this will fix it and then I will share your video with the Jeep JL Wrangler forum with an explanation on how I got to this point and how I fixed it
Keep up the good work
Thanks Larry
is it me or is your flex line rubbing on the sub frame?
Only in the air, on the ground it's fine. Thanks for watching!
Try that on a 2021 Chevy 1500 3.0L
The truck had no lights on, front brake pads had 2mm remaing. As soon as the brake pads and RF pad sensor wire were replaced the Brake, ABS, Traction Control, and Engine lights all come on! The brake pedal must be pressed very hard for it to stop, like a powered booster is out. Oh... and to make matters worse it goes into "limp mode" meaning it will not go over 43mph.
To use automated bleed the SnapOn scan tool says to disconnect the Brake Fluid Reservoir Sensor Wire and there are six different steps! You can barely see the wire as the Master Cylinder is down so for in the engine compartment you need a funnel or risk spilling brake fluid.
So... 2mm on brake pads truck is fine. Replace pads the truck is nearly undeliverable and unstoppable.
Chevys were never meant to be maintained.
Hello, I am planning on disassemblying my abs module tomorrow on my 2014 honda accord because I need to replace it. What if I don't have the money for a scanner good enough for this function? My current scanner is a launch X431 creader VII+ and I know for a fact that it doesn't have the function. Is there any way to manually do it?
I made my purchase after watching your video. I have a question. Is it necessary to update my MK808BT Pro to bleed the brakes again? My one time update has expired on 3-24-24. I made my purchase on 3-24-23. Anyone can answer this question if they know the correct answer. I have never been exposed to these tools while on the job, I'd like to make sure I'm using it correctly. Thanking you in advance, Anthony
When the scan tool is doing auto bleed do you need to open and close the bleed nipple or just leave it open till it’s finished’’thanks
Open the valve when the scan tool asks, then shut it when it tells you to move to the next wheel
Thanks
So the bleeder valve is open the whole time the pedal is being pumped?
@@ajcaiatino. You open it when it says open. And close it when it tells you to close.
@@ajcaiatithe abs module is engaged, pedal not needed until afterwards to verify solid pedal.
For DIY I have Autel's Mini AP200C Bluetooth scanner. Cheaper upfront and you pay annual fee as you need it per function. I also have a fill bottle upside-down into reservoir and a vacuum pump tool on the bleed screw for one person operation. Any downsides to using this method?
Only thing I can think of is your fill bottle going dry or the vacuum bleeder not sealing proper on the bleed valve. I know from experience on both lol
hope you did not crash that car yet... it's just a matter of time, do you know how many times a minute that brake hose rubs against the chassis?
lol what? It only touches when in the air and no weight is on the suspension and only very very lightly. Trust me it's fine. Thanks for worry about my safety though!
@@2carpros oh ok, good deal, didn't know that; i said that 'cause i have seen and replaced them hoses after seing them chafed through the outer layer and the outer fabric and nearing the inner fabric! i am fanatic,i always look for that specifically; some shops don't always re-route the brake hoses properly after some caliper works; one just needs to look at the extreme measures manufacturers take when routing those hoses,in order for them not to rub against anything on their way to the caliper! but it takes 4 or 5 years to wear a hole through; unless it´s an all terrain driven vehicle; then, it gets really serious, maybe 3 months ..or 3 weeks.
On my super duty the tablet doesn’t tell me to open the bleeder.
Can I do this with the engine on? My battery is dead because I left the car seating for several weeks due to brake issues.
It's best to recharge your battery with a charger or get a fresh one. Starting the engine while on jack stands or something can make it unstable and I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you. That being said you could probably do this with the engine on unless the scanner stops you, I wouldn't know I haven't tried it with the engine on. Thanks for watching!
I have the MX808 ordered because of Scotty Kilmer's silly self! Every other one he's used PALES in comparison. MY brakes were done by the previous owner, but they're like 3-step brakes, as in stages of pressure work at different levels versus "fluid" through the press.
I replace my read caliper Nissan Titan 2010 and I bleed all the 4 caliper many times 1 quarter in brake bluid , now my brake in stop ligth slowly go to the floor , u think I need to do the abs bleeding?
My 04 f150 with a launch 909E has function to open abs valves but my 04 you cannot use the bleed option. It says my vehicle doesnt support that function.
What’s the sequence normal bleed procedure, then bleed abs, then normal brake bleed procedure?
Typically yeah. You'd bleed it, then if that doesn't get the desired pedal I'd do the ABS thing, then if it still feels weird, I'd normal bleed again. Thanks for watching!
Does my car have to be started to bleed for Toyota highlander 2004 6 cylinder? My brother said it has to be started help!
I just replaced abs motor on new to me 2003 Silverado ext ls. Master cylinder looks new.
System sat open without a pump for a couple of days. I did suction out brake fluid from reservoir before abs removal so fluid would not end up on the floor.
After refilling reservoir after abs install.. Pedal goes to the floor with no pressure or brake fluid leaving the reservoir.
I even tried removing the two line from the master cylinder. No fluid would come out the two open lines
Whats up?
Thanks...
Good video..my problem is no oil going to front right caliper..all other bleed fine.
Any idea why
Fluid could be caught in the ABS system just for that wheel. I'd bleed it like this video. Thanks for watching!
It can be a bad brake hose if it has collapsed internally.
I had a engine light come up with a code p0610 Pcm failure tried everything had my brakes bumping so feels like warped disks. So I did all new calipers groves disks pads braided lines but Iv still got the engine light and wobbly disks Mazda wants £2000 for program my ECU after lots of searches had fault code broken down into each number meaning So Hope now it’s a speed/brake line sensor if one is faulty it makes the pedal feel on/off
Thanks, I don't have a scanner replaced MC, all pads rotors bled several times calipers are on correctly. My brake pedal still goes to floor please help would this be a computer issue.
