Re: Need scanner to bleed brakes?

This is a warning from a maintenance manual which you should already have:

"On conventional (non-ABS) brake systems, if air has entered the system due to low fluid level or master cylinder replacement, all four brakes must be bled. Warning: If this occurred on a model with an Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), or if the lines to the Hydraulic Control Unit or Integrated Control Unit (1998 models) have been disconnected, the vehicle must be towed to a dealer service department or other repair shop equipped with DRB II scan tool to have the system properly bled."

That is the only mention of using a scanner in the half page bleeding procedure.
