  • Bleeding brakes after replacing ABS module

    Hello boys,
    How do I bleed the brakes after replacing ABS module on a 09 120 1kd it's the module on the RHS under the bonnet not the one under the reservoir , thinking about the air that will go in when the pipes are taken off and on , read iI might need a scan tool haven't got one yet.
    Was hoping just a good normal bleed would do it........would I have brakes to drive to mechanic for scan bleed.
    Thanks Alan.

    No guarantees, but you could try a normal bleed with the key in the on position, might get you there. If the system has been opened like that a computer bleed is what we do at work. Either way you will have some amount of brakes after a normal bleed, just not sure how much.

      Thanks for that Andy, just didn't want to be stuck on the drive vith no brakes at all , will put the working module on and bleed as normal then take it to my mechanic for a computer / scan gaguge bleed.
