Bleed Brakes
If I want to replace my brake fluid (as part of regular maint), what is the best way to bleed they system without having to have the ABS unit bled with a scan tool? Can I just bleed each line at the caliper while keeping the reservoir full, or is having the ABS unit bled unavoidable?
02 1500. Thanks in advance.

Re: Bleed Brakes
As long as you keep the fluid full, you shouldn't need to activate the ABS solenoids, you just won't be replacing the fluid in the ABS circuit. I would suck as much old fluid out of the reservoir and replace with new before you begin.

Re: Bleed Brakes
Sounds good, thanks. I just don't want to have to mess with having someone bleed the ABS.

Re: Bleed Brakes
a turkey baster works well for removing the fluid from the master
