Loosen brake bleeder valves at each wheel.
Just loose enough for small brake fluid oooze.
IF no fluid comes out.. loosen fittings at master cylinder.. if no fluid oozes out.. "lightly" pump brake pedal until fluid oozes from master cylinder.. retighten fittings.. fluid should now be oozing from wheeel cylinders..
Drink cup of coffee.. then retighten wheel cylinder bleed valves.
Test drive vehicle in parking lot or driveway.
If pedal slams floor.. replace master cylinder.
Always use proper brake fluid for vehicle i.e. DOT 3, DOT 4 etc.
