Hello!
New posting on this forum, but I've been scouring it for help.
I wrench on all of my junk, just did motor/tranny mounts on the wife's Sienna.
Just got 2000 GTS with auto trans for the daughter. The brakes were a mess from the longtime PO. (another time in this car's life, it was in my driveway with metal/metal in the front) RR caliper was metal on metal with a hyper extended piston. Left rear was frozen. Had to pull the wheel and sledgehammer it to get the car home. Surprisingly this guy had been driving it and was going to continue until the seizure. He told me the master is fairly new (looks like it) and the car has had
Anyhow, new/rebuilt calipers all around, new discs/pads all around. Bled the brakes. A lot. Went around the car probably 5 times. Used 5 bottles of DOT3. No bubbles and all of the fluid is new twice over now. I don't see any leaks on the rubber lines and all of the metal lines look pretty good.
Pedal is awful and ABS light comes on at startup. Had to drive it to an interior cleaning and I bedded the brakes ok and the ABS is working. Light goes out when driving, comes back on when stopped.
Are there any known issues with the ABS module or wheel sensors? I have not bench bled the master though.
Would an ABS scan tool work on this car?
Thanks!
Howie
