You cannot get the air out of your brakes lines even after bleeding What is up?

Probably need a master cylinder, or you have a leak somewhere. Check the master by GENTLY pinching off the flow on all the flex hose and pump the brake pedal to see if you get a hard pedal. If you let the system run dry you could have air in the master and you will have to bleed the master at the lines connected to it.

How do you bleed brakes on a 2001 Saturn sl1 Pedal goes to floor replaced master cylinder and cannot get pedal up even after bleeding?
The master cylinder MUST be bleed first before any bleeding at the wheels can occur. if you do not do this, you will be bleeding for hours.

What if you change the brake pads on a new Dodge Caravan and now have NO brakes even after bleeding?
Start at the master cylinder. Make sure it's full, pull one of the brake lines, have someone press on the pedal and hold your finger over the hole to see if you get pressure. If you don't replace the master cylinder. If you do, reconnect that brake line and try the other. If you have pressure in both lines of the master cylinder, continue on down to the individual wheel cylinders.
What causes the brakes to keep locking up on my 1997 geo tracker even after I have had new brakescalipers and rotors put on?
It is possible the rubber lines at the calipers are collapsing causing a suction which will not allow the brakes to release. might want to check that. Had same issue replaced lines and calipers wheel bearing and found it to be an abs issue the pressure is not releasing
How do you change the master cylinder on a 1997 ford Taurus?
When you buy the new master cylinder it will actually have installation instructions inside the box, for what to do with the master cylinder before you put it on for example bench bleeding the m.s. to make sure there is no air in there before you put it on. But to get started. you simply disconnect the brake lines from the master cylinder, they should be in the back, on the rear of the master cyl. then its off, and you will get air in the lines, you must bleed the brakes, you can find the process for this in the haynes or chiltons book at the library, copy the instructions so you don't have to go buy the book. anyway, after you follow the manufacturers instructions for bench bleeding the m.s. then you are ready to install. you will have lost some fluid, so it is a good idea to have a large bottle of brake fluid on hand first. you will lose some more when bleeding the brakes. I think the nuts take a 7/16 wrench, if not it may be 1/2 inch or 10 mm nothing else, i doubt, its a small size, same goes for bleeeding the brakes, so install the new, reverse of removing the old, replace the cover (where you will with fluid). bleed all the brakes, have someone pump and hold the brakes while you bleed and then tighten the nuts one by one starting with the front brakes. when all brakes have been bled, lower the car off the jack, let it sit for about 20 minutes for all fluid to even out, check your brake fluid at the master clyinder, and replace any lost fluid. check your brakes in driveway before going anywhere. goodluck kel
When we bleed the brakes with the car turned off turned off the brakes seem good As soon as you start the car and the power assist kicks in the brake pedal goes right to the floor Help?
Brake Pedal Goes to the Floor After BleedingAlthough there could be more than one reason, I suspect that even though you may have bled the brake system, AND the brake fluid reservoir is full, your brake bleeding was not successful, and you STILL HAVE AIR IN THE BRAKE LINES, or in the wheel brake slave cylinders.
New front brake pads and rotors have been installed on a 2001 Toyota and now the brakes jump and or vibrate when applied the problem is when you're braking at speeds over 40.?
There must be either some air in your lines or a weak brake caliper. If you have new rotors and brakes then your problem lies within your lines or your calipers. The vibration means that your car is not braking even. One of your calipers could be loose and the other one is tight. If air is in your lines, then that means even though your car is coming to a stop, your calipers are not getting enough pressure to squeeze as tight as they should be.
What is the cause of low or no brake pedal pressure on a 1964 Thunderbird when the master cylinder and all the lines have been replaced and bled?
I know you may think I'm wack, but you didn't mention brake fluid?Just and idea AnswerNot sure of the question here but are you saying the brakes are soft and you can't get a resistance to your applying the brakes? Is this power brakes/ The vacume hoses may be bad. or the power assist chamber. Just and idea AnswerNot sure of the question here but are you saying the brakes are soft and you can't get a resistance to your applying the brakes? Is this power brakes/ The vacume hoses may be bad. or the power assist chamber. A couple more ideas...Power brakes were standard equipment on the 1964 Bird. If your brakes just aren't working period, you've either got a fluid leak somewhere in the system or you need to bleed further...start by bleeding the master cylinder. Easiest way to do this is to take it off the car and "bench bleed" it. Put vinyl tubing into the ports where you would hook the brake lines up, then run the vinyl tubing back into the fluid reservoir. Main thing is to keep the reservoir full, or your bleed will be for nothing...the minute it sucks air, your back at square one. With the master clamped (gently) in a vise, actuate the master by pressing the piston in and then releasing it...until you don't see bubbles in the vinyl tubing. Leave the fluid in the reservoir after you're done bench bleeding; then install it back in the car (taking care not to spill any fluid..especially on the paint!), connect the brake lines, and finish bleeding the rest of the system. Not a bad idea to make sure the adjustment is correct on the rod between the booster and the master before you reinstall it. That can cause the brakes to be ineffective too. Check your flex lines too...make sure they're not bulging when you press the pedal down. That'll cause the brakes not to work for sure. You mentioned that all the lines are new, but there are rubber flex lines....especially the one just forward of the rear axle. If they're weak or leaking, that could cause a low or no brake condition.If the brakes work fine, but just seems like the pedal is too soft...or even too touchy, look at the brake booster, vacuum lines to the booster, and the vacuum connections on the booster. A bad booster can make the brakes feel too touchy or soft. These are just ideas from things I've run into on my own 64.One more thing, make sure you keep your rear brake linings up to snuff and your emergency brake adjusted; if your master goes bad or your brake fluid gets too low, the brakes are gone completely...and you'll have to use the emergency brake to stop the car. Hope this helps.
What are ebc brakes and how are they used?

After bleeding your front disc brakes 74 Spitfire the brakes work very well except they don't release The pads on both front wheels stay locked to the rotor What did you do wrong?
AnswerThey won't move back very much. If you can spin the wheel, that's about all you'll get. If it still rubs or hangs up, you may need to clean and lube or possibly even replace the callipers.My '89 Firebird front disk brakes won't release for about 15 seconds after applying brakes.Replaced calipers with new, no change.Replaced master cylinder with new, no change.Next to try is the combination valve unit since this is where the two front lines connect.Since this problem is affecting both front brakes I'm discounting a brake line problem.

Why would you have vaginal bleeding after 20 yrs after your hysterectomy?
There are many reasons for vaginal bleeding. They range from irritation or tear during sex, to any of a number of conditions. If you have not had harsh sex, and you are 20 years post-hysterectomy, or even if you have not had a hysterectomy but you cannot account for the bleeding, you should see a doctor.
