What do you do when you bleed the brake?
Also when you bleed the brake do you “pump” the pedal becasue this will allow air into the system also did you bench bleed the master. Here are some guides for you to go over and then get back to me.
How does an antilock brake system stop bleeding?
Antilock braking systems are even less tolerant of contaminated fluid and air than non-ABS. The ABS hydraulic pump operates at several thousand psi, forcing brake fluid through very small valves. This can whip air and brake fluid into something like the foam on a latte, which makes bleeding difficult.
What causes no brake fluid to come out when bleeding?
Flex hoses deliver brake fluid from reservoir and brake master/cylinder to the brake caliper. In case the hoses happen to have any cut, or it’s torn out, there will be no pressure in the brakes; thus, brake bleeding will fail. It also causes the brake fluid to leak.
What to do when you have trouble getting fluid to the front brakes?
If you are having trouble getting fluid to the front brakes, open both of the rear bleeders and jam the pedal hard one time. Be sure to keep the pedal pushed down until both bleeders are closed.
What to do when your brake line bleeds?
Starting at the brake line farthest from the brake reservoir, attach the clear bleeding hose to the brake caliper or wheel cylinder bleed nipple. Apply grease to the bleed nipple threads – helps prevent air enter the system through the threads. Open the bleed nipple and allow the fluid to gravity bleed.

Where is the bleed screw in the brake caliper?
The bleed screw is located in brake caliper behind the wheel. It, therefore, resides in a challenging environment. It is disposed to heat from the braking process as well as dust and mud from the wheels. This harsh environment might cause the bleed screws to rust or corrode, making it difficult to remove them.
