I changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?

When I bleed the brakes I get no fluid to the rear brakes, ABS light is on?I changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?you need to bleed the abs pump tooI changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?
There is no such thing as an ABS pump. That dude's been hittin' the BS pump too much.I changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?did you bench bleed it? okay do not get frustrated go from far end which will be the left rear and wrk from there to the front. Pump 5 by a helper and say hold!!!! you will be the one to release valve and close it ,and it is messy good luckI changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?
Okay, maybe it would save you a lot more time and hassle if we started over. Take out your master cylinder and bench bleed it again per the video link below.



Reinstall and bleed the brakes per the other link below. This should get you going in the right direction.I changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?some cars have to be hooked up to the computer to bleed the absI changed the master cylinder on a 1994 buick century and lost the rear brakes?
you should know that it requires TWO people when bleeding the brakes. one to pump the pedal and then hold down on the pedal while the other person opens the bleeder to get the air out then close the bleeder while that other person is still holding the pedal down.

don't know how knowledgeable you are about doing this but you would do well to either read up on it or talk to someone who really knows how to do it. don't forget that every time you bleed a wheel you loosing fluid and so that means you have to constantly put fluid back into the master cylinder. most have two compartment, one for the front brakes the back for the back breaks. makes sense because if either one of those sets of brakes go bad the other half should still work. maybe the back half of the cylinder was empty when you tried to bleed the breaks. make sure you buy the correct fluid for the breaks.
