Re: Brakes soft then hard then none
If you haven't already, you should make sure that you are full on brake fluid and do not have any leaks.
If no leaks and full, then I would suspect the ABS control module. You can probably get one from a junkyard, just make sure that they are identical before purchasing. |

Classic symptoms of bad master cylinder seals.

Re: Brakes soft then hard then none
check to make sure the brake line is not seaping or leaking behind the gas tank near where it mates to the hose, also check the wheel cylinders make sure they are not wet inside the boots. if they check out ok slap a master cylinder on it
