Bleed the brakes starting at the wheel farthest away from of the master cylinder and work towards the closest.

Brake light and ABS light is on and you changed your wheel bearing hub assembly and brake lines but their is not pressure at the brake padel what is wrong?

there are plenty of possibilities but naturally I would start with the cheapest did you bleed your brakes at each caliper starting with the wheel furthest from the master cylinder. If so move on to your brake line connections is your banjo block cracked is the banjo bolt cracked did you forget to put washers on the banjo bolts if so you should see fluid leaking from around where the banjo block mounts to the caliper when you pump the pedal.if not you can try bleeding master cylinder if problem still persists you probably need a new master cylinder.


All new brake parts on fiat 124 will not bleed?

Check if there is air in the brake lines by ensuring the master cylinder is full and starting the bleeding process at the furthest wheel from the cylinder. Make sure each bleed screw is tight and check for any leaks. Additionally, consider using a power bleeder or seeking professional assistance if issues persist.


Replace both calipers?

The biggest part of replacing calipers is bleeding the system after the calipers are replaced. I just pinch off the hoses nearest to the calipers with vice grips to minimize fluid lost. Then replace the caliper assy. After reinstalling the brake hoses, you may need to bleed the brakes, but sometimes you can get away with not doing it if you have a good brake pedal. If not, then bleed the calipers starting with the furthest one from the master cylinder. Some cars can be bled either with the car on or off, depending. If it doesn't want to bleed well with the car off, then bleeding with the car running might be necessary. You will need two of you or a hand held vacuum pump.


How do you check air in a brake line on a ford E 150 van?

Bleed the brakes starting with the wheel furthest away from the master cylinder. Make sure the master cylinder is full of brake fluid first, then have someone pump and hold the brake pedal while you open the bleed valve on the wheel. As you open the valve, the fluid will come out and let out any air in the line. Keep the master cylinder full as you do the same to each of the other 3 wheels. As you open each valve, the brake pedal will go down so you have to open and close the valve fairly quickly. Here is more info on bleeding brakes to get the air out: http://www.popularmechanics.com/automotive/how_to/4213448.html


Can you show me a number line?

A number line is where a line is drawn with one number starting on one end and another ending it. The number on the furthest right or bottom end is the lower number and the number on the furthest left or top is the highest number.


When do you get your period after starting NuvaRing?

In the first three months of use, you might have irregular bleeding, but you can expect it to settle down to a pattern of bleeding during the ring-free week, often starting on the fourth, fifth, or sixth day the ring is out. Put the new ring in on schedule regardless of whether you're still bleeding.


How do you bleed the brakes on a 2000 dodge stratus SE Have already bleed front and rear with no success on the front calipers tightening?

A few things to note. Always bleed starting with the furthest wheel away from the master cylinder. So the Dodge might be started with the right rear wheel, then left rear, then passenger front, then driver front if the master cylinder is in front of the driver side. Also check to be sure the caliper is moving freely. Try compressing the caliper several times, with the brake fluid cap off so as to let the pressure out through the reservoir. Always keep the reservoir full with fluid because if it is empty then air can get back in. According to the service manual...if you have an ABS system on your car then it has to be turned off before you can effectively bleed the brakes out. I tried in vain for over an hour to bleed the right rear brake with little effect when I found this out. It claims that the ABS systmmust be turned off at the dealer, but if you have a mechanic as a friend with a OBD computer it can be done. My answer to this: In general, I do rear wheel drive vehicles by doing the wheel farthest from the master cylinder and so on closer. Some front wheel vehicles may need a criss cross pattern for bleeding, but most can be completed with the standard procedure for bleeding brakes. On slightly older Dodges that I have worked on, I had success with the standard back to front, furthest to closest wheel bleeding. Be sure to check all fittings and connections for any leaking. One trouble spot can be the proportion valve, if equipped, which sometimes need to be bled separately. Or the proportion valve could be faulty and not allowing the system to bleed. When bleeding, make sure the master cylinder reservoir is full and the top is on. If there are no leaks and the brake pedal is still spongy, then the master cylinder may be faulty or the proportion valve. Another possible way to bleed this is by gravity. Gravity bleeding is achieved by lifting the front of the vehicle with a floor jack so that the master cylinder is the highest point in the braking system. Then, with the master cylinder top off and full, open the bleeder of the wheel and wait. The fluid will eventually make it there just by gravity pulling it down.
