Update. I just rebuild my calipers on my 2005 Sequoia the master cylinder was dry because I let all the fluid escape. After reinstalling calipers and new brake pads I pressure bled the system with Motive Bleeder from the master cylinder down the nipples of the calipers, rear right, rear left, front right then lastly front left. My pedal is not bad but could be better. I notice upon slow speed like first gear by just letting go of the gas pedal if the car is rolling on Drive, if I try to stop it I have to press the pedal a little too mutch. I have ABS, TRACK OFF and VCS TRACK lights on. If I restart the car sometimes they go away for a while then back on. Im guessing there is air in the system. What do you recommend I do now.
Should I bleed them again with a pressure bleeder or what. I can still drive the car at any speed and stop just fine. I just have to press the brake pedal a little to much, it's not terrible but can be much better. Thanks for taking the time, god bless.
NOTE: ONCE THE REBUILD CALIERS WERE INSTALLED I PROCEDED DIRECTLY TO PRESSURE BLEEDING CALIPERS FROM MASTER CYLINDER TO CALIPER NIPPLE. I DID NOT BLEED THE MASTER CYLINDER FIRST WITH BRAKE LINES DETACHED BEFORE PROCEDING TO FULL BLEED. COULD IT BE THAT AIR MADE IT IN THE ABS PUMP BECAUSE OF THIS.

Thank you! Do you both have to bleed the brakes @ the wheels afterwards?

I have my toyota sequoia the problem is there is hissing noise only the breaks are working its just the hissing noise . What should i do? I talk to the mechanic he said i need to buy hydrovac of sequoia

Juniffer Gangano says:

Very educational. Thank you.

ReelOne says:

Thank you very much, I did my own master cylinder while following your video. Fixed my problem. Keep up the good work, God Bless!

No link for the sensors. This isn't necessary for code c1360. If your scan tool has abs live data see if the voltage increases on the master cylinder pressure sensors when you press the brakes. If one does increase and the other doesn't replace that sensor. This looks more like an up sale to the customer. Its why he recommended replacing both sensors in the video

Tx for nice video
Can you help with this problem?
When applying the brakes quickly as if deer ran out in front of me, they are REAL Hard. They do not stop the car fast. It stops eventually, just slowly. But if I where to apply them slowly, like coming up to a stop sign, they work just OK. But they go to the floor, when holding foot on the brakes. Even when the car is parked and running and you push on the pedal they stop half way and then slowly go all the way to the floor. I just changed the front rotors and pads. Its a 2001 Toyota Rav4 with over 250,000 miles on it and everything is rusty so a simple bleeding job is kinda out of the question because I already broke off two bleeder valves. The car is on its last legs and I only want to do what I have to to make it last the winter. Thanks.

Joe Average says:

I have removed my brake calipers and my master cylinder is empty so there is air in it. Can I just suck some fluid out of those two ports instead of pumping the brake. Attach a vacuum sucker with clear lines and just extract fluid until its bubble free.

Mark O says:

You mentioned the pedal was going to the floor. Was it consistently or intermittently? I have a 2004 Tundra and the pedal goes all the way to the floor with very little resistance about one out of every 100 times the brake is applied. After letting off and pressing again, it is fine. Every time it has happened, it has been under light braking. No stored codes or lights.

Robert C says:

Thats a very sloppy job of protecting the vehicle from brake fluid spilling.

S.Ccatfish says:

So I have a 2005 Toyota Tundra and I'm losing brake fluid from my master cylinder reservoir, I have checked all the lines and cant find a leak, any ideas what my problem is?

Daniel GarcĂ­a says:

Anyone have a video of a 2002 Toyota sienna brake booster removal? When you step on the pedal it's hard and hard to stop the vehicle. Thanks

Kevin C says:

what would you do in the event that you replaced both front calipers and let the front side of the master cylinder go dry? ive replaced/ bled and done this kinda work alot. But this system for some reason will not let me get any fluid out. Im not even sure how to pump fluid back through lol.

Matt Bassing says:

Any link to the sensors?

Harley Ryder says:
