Brakes

[Jlq1969]

This is how it has always been recommended by users….bleed, cycle…and bleed again….and if you repeat it again, better….(this in a circuit without disarming or air intake), only in a change of liquid…….
and if it is only a change of pads, push the pads opening the bleeders and refill the missing fluid, without the need to bleed and cycle

you're all way ahead of me, nice discussion.
So, has no one yet cracked a bleeder with the pump running?

I wonder if that will work? You have to apply both brakes to do the cycling. I don’t know if the system has to see the pressure in the lines or just activation of the brake light switches? If it’s the former you would have no line pressure with the bleeder open and the cycle might not run. Also mightn’t the cycling draw air back through an open bleeder if it did run?

Yeah, I don't know what all the results would be. What's the worst that could happen? With the pump running crack a bleeder and tell us all what happens.
All the best.

I jumpered my 2017 that way... but I just used a paper clip that I bent into a U shape then pressed it in. Worked fine.

A guy at work told me to do it with paper clip…what colour wires were ther cheers

Post #106 in my thread What TenereGUY has been up to explains the process.

What TenereGUY has been up too

I will put up a short YouTube video of the relay. I didn't take time to do a really good one. Just o e to clarify what I said in the above post. Wires stripped and mated together with soldering paste on them. Soldered and not coming apart. Polyolefin heat shrink tubing for protection. Lasts...
