ABS bleeding????

[mike_dmt]

So, I had a caliper sticking, and replaced it. Turned the warped rotor, and changed the pads on the good side too, just for good measure. Went to bleed the system, and like many of the posts I've looked through I've got the same problem of a low/spongy pedal. I went through about a quart of fluid thinking it was air in the lines.

I called some mechanic friends as well as a brake shop, who informed me of the quick take up MC on these vehicles. I let the system gravity bleed for about a half hour, and then bled again with his recommendations, which isn't the pump pump pump technique, but a 15 second interval between single pump then bleed style, with the same result... low/spongy pedal, which wasn't the case before.

So after an hour of looking through other posts on here, I believe the ABS needs bled. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I can't believe it's this complicated, I've done this stuff for a while now....

Need year make and model?

Some require a ABS capable sanner to bleed system.
Also there is a special wheel beed pattern.
