How do you put brake oil back into the caliper of a 96 dodge caravan?
You pop the cover of the brake fluid resevoir, fill it, and then replace the cover. Then, you loosen the "pip" on the caliper with a very small wrench. Then, you have somebody pump their foot on the brake pedal until you are sure that there is no more air in the brake line. Brake fluid will be squirting out through the pip. On the final pump of the brake pedal, they have to hold their foot on the pedal while you tighten the pip! Then, you might want to refill the brake fluid resevoir.

No resistance from the brake pedal could indicate very low brake fluid, a broken or leaking brake line, bad master cylinder, blown out caliper pistons or rear wheel brake cylinders.

Why do brakes jam and the brake pedal becomes stiff?
Brakes can jam and the brake pedal can become stiff due to several reasons, including air trapped in the brake lines, a malfunctioning brake booster, or a seized caliper. When air is present, it can prevent proper hydraulic pressure from building, affecting pedal feel. A faulty brake booster can inhibit the assist necessary for smooth braking, while a seized caliper can cause the brake pads to remain engaged. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues.
